That looks good. And the club should fly Bennett up and let the likes of Kennedy and Hannant know that he's in the stands watching.

Backing into the playoffs is never ideal as it usually means a one week stay of execution but it isn't as bad as 2007 where we snuck in when Newc lost in OT on the Fri nite, two days later we celebrated by getting pumped 68-22 vs Parra then 40-0 by Melb one week later in a game best remembered for being Ian Lacey's last and Alwyn Simpson's only. While there is life, there is always hope but Micheal Morgan and Matt Scott have to be contained or it's going to be a mismatch.

2007 was the seasons end from hell. Just about everyone was injured, it was a loonng season including the World Challenge, and we had to play a red hot (and illegal) Storm in the first week.

They can't do that, he's still technically contracted to the Knights until November first I believe.

Why? It's not like we've done anything to show we can win this type of game. It's great that we're there and will be invaluable to guys like Hunt to get this experience, but beyond that I don't see a lot to be positive about.

if you never put that scoreline on this forum again that'd be just fine.

Perfect timing! Got my footy tipping break up Saturday night over at my uncles house (All mad Broncos supporters.. except my Dad who supports the Chooks :/)
I think it's possible that we win, but we really need Hoffman back in the side, ideally Gillett as well, but I won't hold my breath on that one, this is the side I'm expecting.
1. Josh Hoffman
2. Daniel Vidot
3. Dale Copley
4. Justin Hodges (c)
5. Lachlan Maranta
6. Ben Barba
7. Ben Hunt
8. Josh McGuire
9. Andrew McCullough
10. Ben Hannant
11. Alex Glenn
12. Sam Thaiday
13. Corey Parker (c)
14. Martin Kennedy
15. Corey Oates
16. Jarred Wallace
17. Todd Lowrie
Alternatively if Hoffman can't play, Hodges to Fullback, Oates to right Centre, Stagg onto the bench, Hodges attacking at Fullback, Maranta defending at Fullback.

Like it a lot. Gillette mita got an ultimate burner. Hope he's there come Sat but liked Granville's work in Qcup today

remember the emotion, shock, confusion ect at Red Hill when Bennett was announced for 2015 ? Well multiply that by about seven then send them down the tunnel onto 1300smiles stadium ...
