Was on the winning side as Force won by 1 point thanks to Olowofela's 72nd minute converted try and a penalty well after the final siren.

All the Super Rugby Australia games are streamed live and for free on the World Rugby website. I don't think they have a replay service though I didn't look that hard for it the other day.

Browning gets another 8/10 rating in the rugby paper, in their loss against Pirates sounds like he was constantly making line breaks. (Joint highest rated player again in the game)

Law start for Ampthill in their game v Hartbury today,

Annoying the lack of highlights Nottingham do for their games.

Looks like he had another good game by all accounts.

Would be very surprised if he isn't here next season.
For me has a big chance of getting a winger spot in a couple season, especially with Nadolo and Murimurivalu in their 30's

Good to hear Browning is doing well, sounds like a great prospect.

I think Worth, Olowofela and Lewis really need to shine on loan if they're going to get another chance at Tigers, given the amount of game time they have already had. A hattrick for Olowofela is a pretty good start for him, hopefully he will continue!

He could have had four, he carved open the Reds from around his own 22 and his only mistake was passing to a supporting forward rather than chipping for himself to chase over the last line of Reds defence. His three tries were all good finishes, especially the second where he went over the line with three defenders. Took a high ball nicely in traffic and got taken out for a yellow card for his opposite number.

Borthwick will have watched that with interest. I'd like to see more of his kick chase game though the Force don't seem to really play like that.

For those interested, a tweet from Super Rugby with the highlights of last nights Force Vs Reds

OP courtesy of PeteD on another thread. If you haven’t seen the highlights worth a watch for 3 cracking tries by Olowafela

so is that Worth's season and loan over already or is he there for their next season too?

Hard to tell just from those highlights but Olowofela seems to have learned how to use his speed too which is great for us when he comes back
