Im gutted he was my favorite player at the Force and an absolute gentleman certainly one of the best players not to have got a longer stint in the Wallabies. My two favorite memories of him were when he Scored a 60m Intercept try last year against the Waratahs, Scored under the posts right in front of where i was sitting

And 2nd one was when my little boy was in the gaurd of honour for the Force and he was last out of the tunnel and batted the little guy on the head as he ran past..

The Western Force has begun casting its net worldwide in a bid to find a replacement for retiring backman Scott Staniforth.
Staniforth announced his retirement from rugby today after his career was prematurely ended by a chronic neck injury.
Staniforth, 32, suffered the injury against the Lions in Johannesburg in May, but returned to the field in July in a KWIK premier grade competition in WA. He suffered further damage to his neck while training in August and hung up the boots after medical advice.
