You have not factored in the MPs starting first five. And as an aside that french looking name in the Force is a dinkum Aussie out of Sydney Uni, but he has spent the last couple of years on contract up in France. Was injured a lot though I think my Sydney Uni affiliated brother told me when speaking about him about ten months ago.

[Tim]

Sio Tomkinson's red card to cost the Force.

[Darren]

Just noticed Reed Prinsep on the bench for the Force.. Nice to bring on a dynamic player like that to close out the game.
Both teams featuring a few unwanted outcasts.

[cgrant]

Atu Moli on the bench for the Force. This guy's career has always been hampered by serious injuries. He had the potential to be a great All Black. Unfortunately, it never happened.

[African Monkey]

Interesting battle this. Craig and Slade will have their hands full against a big Force lineout, and it's a very inexperienced front row put out by Moana.

5 points either way this game goes.

Also, this is Moana's 3rd year in a row playing in Perth which I find odd.

[Bovidae]

Umaga has an extra forward on the bench so he must be expecting an attritional battle up front.

Garden-Bachop with a try and a droppy so far. He’s looking sharp. Good on him.

[Canes4life]

Tizzano scores for the Force. Good thing I have him in my Fantasy side.

17-10 to Moana now.

[antipodean]

Tizzano is such an important player for the Force. Really leads by effort and impact.

Nice sideline conversion from Donaldson.

[Canes4life]

Force score again. Kick to come.

Fast paced game but not much defence.

17 all

[Canes4life]

Patafilo scores for Moana. 24-17 to Moana after 30 mins

Anyone have Garden-Bachop in their side? He’s racking up the points.

Swain was blocking when the maul was set up for the last try.
