The Western Force has had a tumultuous journey over the last six years. The club was removed from Super Rugby, survived with no competition, gained support from a mining billionaire, lost that support due to COVID, and then returned to Super Rugby. Despite these challenges, the club has achieved an NRC title and a finals berth in Super Rugby AU. However, the club has yet to make a finals appearance in Super Rugby, and there are questions about their performance on the field. To become a top club, they need to make finals appearances and win titles. The club’s head coach, Simon Cron, is working to transform the team into a contender. He has brought in new players to address cohesion and depth issues, and is focused on building a strong, competitive squad. Despite the challenges, Cron is determined to make the Force the best club team in world rugby. With a busy pre-season and new player signings, the Force is working towards this goal.
