    Looks like a few Aussies don't like Peter very much, you have to read the comments on the you tube link

    Benazzi getting sent off on debut. Troy Flavell ain't got shit on him.

    Forest is a presumptuous fluffybunny, deciding the rules of Union. He wants make another League or Aussie rules, basically only played in Oz. What's the point?

    The same reason his charitable announcements always seem tied to his foundation whose sole job appears to be running good press for him...

    But fucking Force fans cannot get in line fast enough to suck his bag.

    Sure, he only turned up when it was inevitable they were about to be booted. He was absolutely nowhere to be seen when they started, or through the Firepower controversy or all the other shit.

    But sand gropers have a thing about everyone "over east" and something as inconvenient as the truth won't stop Twiggy being their messiah.

    In any case, nice to know Cheika is jumping on the Old Boys bandwagon.

    I love this crowd who think we should have just stood up a competition with NZ and the Pac Islands + Japan when nobody wants to get in bed with a poisonous, incompetent bunch of crunts.

    I saw someone quoting over on GAGR that it was Castle's fault for signing back up with SANZAAR.

    love it - crunts is my new fav word.

    @westcoastie an Aussie comedian called Rodney Rude used it years ago. The routine was roughly this:

    "People don't like me swearing so what if we used 'puck' and 'crunt'?"

    Ah, fireman Rodney - "You're the 4 pregnant woman I've rescued this week"
    Woman - "I'm not pregnant"
    Rodney - "You're not pucking rescued yet either"

    Statement on Sunwolves' participation in Vodafone Super Rugby AU

    Rugby Australia and the Sunwolves have come to the unfortunate conclusion that the Japan-based team will be unable to participate in the proposed Vodafone Super Rugby AU competition.

    Who are the Force going to select in their squad? There should be a few Aussies and Kiwis from the Sunwolves now available.

    @Bovidae I assume their 2020 Rapid Rugby squad: https://www.westernforce.com.au/teams/

    Edited to add that I expect the games between the Force and, particularly, the Brumbies to end in a bloodbath. The Force will be forcefully crushed.

    @Stargazer beating 2nd string Pacific teams and powerhouse Asian nations like Malaysia isn't about to inspire confidence...

    The reaction of their fans will be interesting.

    When Johan Bardoul is considered tall enough to be a lock in your squad, you have problems.

    How does he compare height wise James Blackwell?

    @Nepia A similar height. That doesn't make it right though! 😉

    If the Force had a good squad, they'd be playing elsewhere.

    to be fair though, they only have to compete with the Rebels, the Tahs, and the Reds. It's sort of like a reserve grade comp.
