    Foley head coached the Tahs to 4/16 and the Force to 4/16, 9/16 and 3/16 which would equal 20/64.

    Thats RG 29% vs Foley 31%.

    Plus in head to head Foley is 4/6 in those three years they have been head coaches.

    New game plan? Open game with a talentless backline. No wonder they are developing so many open side flankers.....need 4 fetchers to cover the knock-on-a-thon out wide.

    I gotta say that some of you are a right miserable lot. Its tough work being a Force supporter at times but no need to be so bloody gloomy before a games even been played.

    You are starting to sound like the British.

    I worked it myself so there's chance I made an error. Actually I probably included the 2013 Qld results for Graham to get my result.

    But 29% vs 31% win rate is at best a cripple fight.

    They're both rubbish.

    Not kicking the ball all the time would be a start

    I'd be happy with high, right on the 22 and with a good couple of chasers putting pressure on the catcher, probably prefer that to defending a lineout with two of our preferred lifters out of action.

    Anything that has the potential for us not to get reamed is my general hope for the season at the moment.

    It is our new game plan to sound negative .... being positive did not work the previous 10 years
