Recent Match Highlights

Last weekend the Force faced off against the Crusaders in a nail‑biting game. The final score was 24‑22, with a late penalty sealing the win. Star fly‑half James O’Connor landed a decisive drop goal in the 78th minute, sparking celebrations across Perth. The defense held strong, forcing three turnovers in the last ten minutes, which turned the tide.

Player Spotlights

Keep an eye on youngster Sam Johnson, who broke into the starting lineup after a standout performance in the development squad. He tallied two tries and a solid tackle count, earning praise from coach Darren Coleman. Veteran lock Matt Hodgson announced a short‑term contract extension, reassuring fans that experience will stay in the pack.

Injury news matters too. Scrum‑half Jake Evans is out for six weeks with a shoulder sprain, meaning the bench will see some reshuffling. The team’s medical staff says the rehab plan is on track, and Evans is expected back before the next round of the Super Rugby Pacific.

Off the field, the Force recently launched a community program aimed at local schools. Players visited four primary schools in the Perth area, sharing stories about teamwork and fitness. The initiative is part of the club’s effort to grow rugby’s reach and connect with the next generation of fans.

Ticket information is also up‑to‑date here. Upcoming home games at HBF Park are selling fast, especially the clash against the Brumbies. Early‑bird tickets are still available online, and you can snag a bundle deal that includes a fan‑zone pass and a team merch voucher.

If you’re into stats, we’ve got the numbers you need. The Force’s kicking accuracy sits at 78% this season, while their line‑out success rate is 85% — both among the top three in the league. These figures show why the team is competitive even against the bigger franchises.
