    See that Stan has a Rugby Heaven Western Force special on tonight?

    Is it for the new signing news? Or are they feeling guilty for ignoring the lack of replays from shithead Swindon’s late hit on Jake?

    Not so much a Western Force special, it's just being filmed live from The Claremont Hotel today. This week we have the free to air showing

    I believe it was pre-filmed yesterday afternoon. I was a bit disappointed I hadn't heard about it until I finally watched Between Two Posts yesterday. Malone encouraging Force Fans to come down on Wednesday.

    I was disappointed i missed yesterday, I'd be even more disappointed if it was on today and I've missed it again

    Just typical of how STAN dismissively treat the Force and WA. Can't be bothered to promote or let fans know about the filming - or if it is a live show that we could have been there. Having said that I don't know whether I could have spent an evening listening to that knucklehead Maloney and his other ES cohorts. Worst ever rugby commentary team -particularly Justin Harrison - except for Nick McCardle for whom I have great respect. The only journo outside of WA who tried to get answers when the ARU were trying to kill us off.

    Just had a look at the FB preview. Seems to be plenty of Wests jumpers in the audience. Wonder that happened...I think we know the answer.

    It gets worse. Just watched the start and Maloney is calling the Claremont Hotel "Western Force heartland" Lot of research done there- bloody STANkers

    Just trying to figure out what you are upset about Truth.

    The fact that Stan came over here. Or that they didn't invite you to the pub?

    I find it hard to accept how the national broadcaster of our game, when it finally decides to accept and remember that we are an important part of Super Rugby, manages to treat it like a sideshow - except the Matt Hodgson segment.
    They should have done more research on Matt Kiribige's signing for a start. Didn't they know he's only here for this season. Obviously not. I am leaving the room now before I start headbutting walls.
    One more thing. Why am I not surprised they didn't have a serious discussion (or any discussion) on the non-red card.

    Why??

    Why?

    Simple answer for you - it's a Popcorn show. It is not Dateline with an in-depth background Video with Morgan Freeman doing the voiceover. They spent 90 seconds on how Harrison didn't fit in his Economy Class seat for the flight over, and another 2 minutes on Greegan not paying for a bottle of wine.

    FFS the show was closed out by a 10 year old who couldn't remember his lines.

    If you wanted a frame-by-frame dissection of the late hit on Jake you were watching the wrong show. To be honest, I don't think Stan have that show.

    I watched this episode - the 1st one in 3 Seasons.

    Why would anyone think that the hosts will be better than their game commentary?

    Actually truth, I think X is on the menu here, and you all know I only agree with him when he's righ, so about 50% of the time.The show is pretty crap and hasn't ever respected the force, or for that matter, themselves. Roz Kelly and Nick McArdle have been less involved of late and the show has deteriorated into even more brainless footy show style bullshit designed to pull ratings from Sydneysiders, probably leagues (can't be sure, because I haven't watched the footy show for many years, don't know if it's even still going)What I loved about the show was the way our guys stood up and showed their pride and how they have bought into what the force are doing. The Swinton assault will be swept under the rug by everybody in rugby for one simple reason. It makes our best ref look completely incompetent. That is the best case scenario, so even if everybody is 100% unbiased, they won't mention it due to potential fines and making our refs look bad.I was shocked (pleasantly) to hear Tony Lewis talk so openly and passionately about it on sportfm and I bet he'd already checked the accounts and found money for the fine. Likely they won't fine him, because he's right, he'll get a quiet phone call to shut him up.Best I can offer, the tahs play this week and Stan did a whole show with nobody talking about it. Take the win.

    I have to admit that I was a it surprised at how poorly advertised it was. Felt like a rather clubby affair. I did take some solace in that Mrs Hodgson was in picture for most of the show
