Chief executive officer Tony Lewis was quick to acknowledge the efforts of everyone involved in discussions.

“This is a massive moment for our loyal Members who have waited patiently for this news,” Lewis explained. “I’d like to thank David Templeman the Minister for Culture and the Arts; Sport and Recreation and his team for their willingness to listen and work towards a fantastic outcome for WA. “We are so excited to bring live sport back to town in what promises to be another blockbuster clash in our growing rivalry with the Reds.

“I urge all sports fans in WA to get behind the Force and enjoy world class rugby and entertainment in the flesh once again.”

Following last year’s epic encounter with the Reds, which saw the Force claim a thrilling 30-27 win to secure a finals berth in front of a packed HBF Park crowd, the stage is now set for another memorable blockbuster.
