Round 25 - Sea Eagles vs Broncos - Build Up Thread

[Ari Gold]

Matt Ballin has reportedly suffered an achilles injury. If true he wont be playing this week. Supposedly Buhrer will play despite his concussion. I'd still run at him all day to test him out though. If Ballin and T-Rex both miss the game then I think we will win.

 

[noisetheory]

trex has been cleared.

How unusual :001_rolleyes:

 

[Ironbroncos]

hopefully the broncos skip the media for once and straight concentrate fully on the task ahead.. too much talk not enough action, i dunno who gives some of the players the 'ok' to talk to media but for me I honestly dont see the damn point in some of them fronting media before a game.. case & point Dunamis Lui, has alot to say infront of the camera, come game time.. umm yeah...mud. and hes been interviewed a few times, i mean if it was a senior player well sweetas, atleast a senior player has some kinda say and influence during the game, but someone like Lui or whoever else coming off the bench, IMO just f#@k up and do your job or no finals footy end of story...

 

[IBA]

The difference between our bench of Te'o, Gillett, Dodds & McGuire coming on vs Gillett, Dodds, Lui & Capewell coming on will be enormous. If Glenn and McGuire are cleared that is... I thought this was going to be the easiest of our 3 tough games in a row, but watching that Manly game on Sunday, not quite so sure.

If they can start like the last 2 games, and keep that going into the second half we'll be right.

i reckon ballin pulls out.

 

[Big Pete]

Expect King to join him too.

Reckon Toovey is just playing silly buggers selecting that side, not giving the Broncos an inch.

Capewell drop off. Lui/Dodds flip a coin to be the 17th man.

 

[noisetheory]

i'd pick dodds because he looks a better defender. we have enough backrowers who can/should be effective in attack.

time for broncs to activate beast mode.

 

[subsbligh]

For mine.

15. Josh McGuire
16. Alex Glenn
17. Matt Gillett
19. Dunamis Lui

What a ****ing good bench with Gleen and McGuire back. Geez I hope both are 100%

Lui can add impact on occasion. No good as a workhorse.

 

[vertigo]

No more injuries please!

Time to gather some ****ing momentum.

 

[jarro65]

Great to see Show & Glenn back!

Hell yeah !!

A lot more balanced looking pack with those two back.

Capewell drop off. Lui/Dodds flip a coin to be the 17th man.

Dodds for mine .... he provides a lot more ooomph in 'D'

i'd pick dodds because he looks a better defender.

:thumbup1:

 

[Old Mate]

Yeah Dodds over Lui.

 

[user_nat]

Get rid of Capewell and we have ourselves a team.
