    Good to see most of team intact from last week, suspect Pulu may be injured as hobbled off last week, and having Koteka on the injury list leaves us without a genuine pilfrerer.

    Wagner for Holmes and bench back to 5 / 3 split, great to see young Masibaka retained.

    Crusaders very strong starting backline, tight five and bench a lot less experienced.

    Need to play for that 80 again to have an outside chance

    Oh No!! Force reporting that Koteka has sustained a season ending fooot injury, that is a huge blow as we do not have a genuine pilferer.

    Good to see a Kalamunda junior playing again in Perth. From a force perspective shame to see him playing for the Saders.

    Season ending injury for Kane is shocking news! He's consistently one of our best.
    Can Abra play THP? Think we may be in some trouble at scrum time given Medrano has been underwhelming there and I'm guessing Bo will likely struggle also. Great to have Wagner back though.

    Very disappointing to see McIntyre and Prior being persisted with on the bench. Would really love to see some of the young players given a crack. Lacey been very hard done by as well missing out on the 23 for a few weeks in a row after having an excellent game.

    As Tazz said, crusaders backline looks killer, but hopefully we can do them up front and get the upset we should have last week

    Stats from last weeks game against the Blues;

    1st half - Force possession 48% Time in opponents half 31% we loose 8-22

    2nd half - Force possession 74% Time in opponents half 76% we win 10-0

    We need to make our kicks in general play really count. Lets not kick the ball straight back to the Saders willy-nilly (technical term), they have the potential to carve us up. I hope we hang onto the ball more like we did against the Blues and put pressure on their defence.

    Unfortunate finish when the Oppo put on 50.

    Crusaders back to their normal level.

    Our guys couldn't match up like last week.

    What do we need to do to convert that territory into points? How many times have we been camped in our opponents 23 and not come away with any points at all? Should we have taken a few more penalty goals?
