Hello and welcome to today’s coverage of the Western Force vs Blues live from NIB stadium, Perth. The Western Force, the surprise package of 2014, will look to continue their remarkable season and keep their playoff dream alive. While the Blues still have a mathematical chance of reaching the play-offs, they have not won away from home since February 2013, 13 consecutive defeats on the road. They will however be boosted by the return of All Blacks Tony Woodcock, Jerome Kaino, Ma’a Nonu and Patrick Tuipulotu, so a upset is certainly on the cards.
