The potentially match-winning kick that Australia's returning flyhalf would love to forget

Western Force flyhalf Jono Lance says he’s still annoyed at himself for the penalty miss that cost his side victory against the Melbourne Rebels late last month, and he’s vowed to make amends.

The Force remain winless and on bottom of the Super Rugby AU table following five straight defeats.

Their most recent outing was a 28-8 loss to the NSW Waratahs last Friday night.

      Lote Tuqiri and Karmichael Hunt Origin Special | Rugby Ruckus – Tight Five

      The Force have blown match-winning positions in three of the five games they played.

      The one that sticks out the most was the 25-20 extra-time loss to the Rebels.

      With scores locked at 20-20 in normal time, Lance had the chance to nail what would have probably been the matchwinner when he lined up for a 22m penalty in the 76th minute.

      Lance pulled the kick, and the Rebels went on to win in extra-time.

      “I only think about it about six times a day at the moment,” Lance said when asked about the miss.

      “That’s the risk you take when you’re goalkicking. I got all the ones before that, not too sure what happened in that one.

      “I’m annoyed at it because of how passionate the WA fans are back in Perth. That was a very tough pill to swallow, because I know that kick was for a lot of people who put in a lot of effort to get this team back to where it is.

      “That’s driving me to keep working on that and keep honing my skills so that when I’m in that position again we’re celebrating a win and we get to sing the team song.”

      The Force will be back in action on Friday night when they take on the unpredictable Queensland Reds at Cbus Super Stadium.

      The Reds sit second on the table with three wins and a draw from their six games.

      Queensland will enter the match full of confidence after beating the Melbourne Rebels 19-3 last week in a masterful defensive display.

      But the performance came just a week after the Reds leaked six tries in a 45-12 loss to the Waratahs.

      Lance said Queensland’s performance against the Rebels was more representative of what the Force can expect to encounter.

      “That’s what we’re going on, because they’re an unreal team,” Lance said.

      “I know a lot of the players there – I’ve trained and played with them recently. So I know the class they have there.

      “But we’re a pretty classy bunch as well here.”

      Glasgow's honest take on Sam Prendergast: 'I think they make it easy for him'

      A few weeks ago, I came across a YouTube ad that stopped me in my tracks. It looked like a live broadcast of Elon Musk announcing Tesla’s “exclusive crypto project.” The production was flawless, professional, convincing, and eerily realistic. His voice, expressions, mannerisms everything matched what you’d expect from a real Tesla livestream.The ad promised massive returns if you “joined the project” by sending Bitcoin to a wallet address. I was skeptical at first, but the countdown timer, skyrocketing charts, and Elon’s confident pitch chipped away at my doubt. Eventually, I gave in. I sent $8,000 worth of BTC, thinking I was getting in early on a groundbreaking initiative.But just a few hours later, something didn’t sit right. I checked Tesla’s official channels. No mention of any crypto project. My stomach dropped.I rushed to a blockchain explorer and looked up the wallet address I’d sent the funds to. What I saw confirmed my worst fears: my BTC was being split and moved rapidly across multiple wallets in a process known as “smurfing,” a common money laundering technique. I had been scammed.In desperation, I searched for help and came acrossCHAINTRACE ASSET RECOVERYa blockchain forensics firm. Honestly, I didn’t expect much but I reached out anyway.

      Geoff Parling: An Englishman roasting the Lions?

      TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY IS A GENUINE CRYPTO RECOVERY COMPANY


      It was a cold morning when I first realized the full extent of my loss. I had invested 150,000 euros into an online crypto platform, believing in their promises and the allure of quick financial success. But as the days passed, I discovered it was all a scam. My money was gone, and with it, my dreams of financial security.

      The feeling of helplessness and devastation was overwhelming. I tried everything to recover my funds contacting authorities, searching for solutions online, and connecting with others who had been through similar scams—but nothing seemed to work. I felt completely lost, as though there was no way back.One Sunday, feeling utterly defeated, I decided to visit Grace Church in Dublin, Ireland. I was searching for some peace and comfort. During the service, I shared my story with the congregation, explaining how I had been scammed and lost everything. I didn’t expect much—just a chance to speak to someone.

      Afterward, a fellow parishioner came up to me. He had been listening closely, and after hearing my situation, he shared that he had once been in a similar place.

      He had fallen victim to a scam too, and like me, thought his money was gone for good. But someone had recommended a service called TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY to him. He decided to reach out to them, and with their help, he had managed to recover his lost funds.

      He suggested I contact them, believing they could help me too.

      Though I was skeptical, I was also desperate, so I wrote down their contact information. That evening, I called TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY. From the moment we spoke, I felt a sense of professionalism and empathy that I hadn’t encountered before. They didn’t treat me like just another case. They listened to my story, took my concerns seriously, and reassured me that they would do everything they could to help.The recovery process was detailed and transparent. They kept me updated regularly, explaining each step they were taking. Weeks passed, and though I was anxious, I held onto hope. Then, out of nowhere, I received the incredible news: TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY had successfully recovered 95% of my 150,000 euros. It felt like a miracle. I couldn’t believe it. Thanks to the team at TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY, I was able to regain my financial footing and rebuild emotionally. I’m now more cautious than ever, but I’m also deeply grateful.

      Without the kind recommendation from that parishioner at Grace Church, I would never have found the help I so desperately needed.

      Today, I’m on the path to full recovery, and I can confidently say that TRACE HACKER'S CRYPTO RECOVERY gave me a second chance.

      Their dedication and expertise truly made all the difference in my life.
