Your kidding?? Did you go to the right ground? Maybe you turned up at Subi by mistake.

The scoreboard is on those big things in the corners called “screens”

well there is only one screen at the soccer ground where the force play and they print tge score on it so small its impossible to see

as for me i say phil waugh still has it

cant wait for the bulls next week

I’ll never knock the guys for losing if they have a red hot go……that’s all you can ask.

Also, no ones even bothered to offer any thoughts on why the ref kept re-setting scrums that were already won (by either side)……really, what is the point?

The sooner they bring in American style refereeing where the ref has to explain to the crowd his decision the better. I don’t care if it holds up quick taps….he could explain on the fly. It would certainly make refs more accountable and theyd get their 5 minutes in the spotlight so there mums could see them on tv instead at the countless boring resets.

Prob missed whatever else was happening – as there were a whole lotta blokes running round on the main field appearing to be controlled by this tosser who was called a Ref. Did he win a lucky seat prize or something and just got the gig?

Won’t be attending another Force game EVER.

In response to the scrum experts above- yes, you might drop the scrum deliberately on attack IF you thought you might milk a penalty (perhaps a possibility in the first of the three penalties last night, but certainly not the next too) or if you were going backwards and at risk of losing the scrum (again NOT the case last night- check the footage). SHarpe asked the ref the exact question and his flustered response was “Er…pressure”- abject nonsense. He clearly hadn’t actually thought about it clearly and was covering his mistake. But good on Benn Robinson- did to Henderson what all the loose heads of the world did to Al Baxter for years- let’s hope he can continue to get away with it for the Wallabies…

Because the opposition has a better scrum and the attacking (feeding) team want to try and get a penalty against the opposition.

The wallabies pack with Al Baxter were masters of this when the wallaby scrum was extremely poor a few years ago.

I just can’t work out for the life of me how Hickey & Co think. Like how many times is it okay for Barnes to miss vital goals & still remain goal kicker? Luckily he handed over the goal kicking reins otherwise we probably would have lost. Thank goodness for Hangers.

Probably my main gripe with the coaches is same as every week and that’s the piss poor use of the bench. I would have thought that our depth the BIG thing we had over the Force and yet our replacements come on so damn late. What did Beale get 7-8 minutes? Is that all he’s worth?

Burgess having trouble cause they all know his tricks? Then bloody well hook him sooner. Josh Holmes is willing and able and actually seems to get players running onto his pass.

On not rolling away – This was an area that had brought a breath of fresh air to the game. Has there been a directive to the refs that once again allows flopping of players over the ball?

even my dad was falling asleep and he loves the force

That tactic of the tackler not rolling away, preventing the ball carrier from playing the ball quickly, and Waugh on the second man steal I would have thought was a penalty + yellow card, not play on. Hopefully referees wise up to it.

The Tah’s have one of, if not the best front rows in the Super14. The Western Force have a prop playing hooker…… No wonder that got smashed in the scrums all night.
