North Force coach Russell Baddeley said his side was looking to forget last week's 4-2 loss with a storming 90-minute performance.

North Force coach Russell Baddeley said his side was looking to forget last week's 4-2 loss with a storming 90-minute performance.

North Force will be looking for a big send-off tomorrow in Kamo as they face Warkworth in their final home game of the season.

However, they will be hoping they don't repeat their first 16 minutes of last week's game - when they were down 3-0 - against cellar dwellers Warkworth. With eight wins, 10 losses, and a draw so far this season, North Force have consistently put in strong showings at home - with the Northland crowd being described by many rivals as the best in the NRFL Division Two League.

North Force coach Russell Baddeley said his side was looking to forget last week's 4-2 loss with a storming 90-minute performance. "North Force are desperate to put on a good show and get a win in front of our home crowd," he said.

"We are looking for a good performance over the full 90 minutes. [This week] we welcome back Josh Hacker and Thomas Berry, but star striker Steve Schimmel is unlikely to play due to injury. Jo Luiten, Ben Porter and Marcus Crum are all still unavailable."

Tomorrow's 3pm match will be North Force's penultimate game, before signing off the regular season against Albany United next Saturday.
