PRE-GAME Round 7 - Broncos vs Sharks

[Dee]

Hoping for the best, expecting the worst.

Let's see how we go.

Dearden still on the extend3d bench, could be in with a shot ?

From Foxsports.com.au

...Seibold also confirmed halfback Kodi Nikorima is set to play despite not finishing training on Thursday, with rookie Tom Dearden still on standby.

This is it boys and girls.

Tonight is the night!

Damn right!

I am completely sick of the negativity surrounding the club at present. Yes we aren't performing, but it's still my club so everyone who wants to throw them under the bus can get r**ted as far as I am concerned.

I've changed my tips this week. I'm on us and will be for the rest of the year to hell with the results. I'm backing my team. I'm going tonight in all my Broncos kit and will be cheering the lads on, win, lose or whatever.

F*ck the haters. Time to draw a line in the sand.

Go the Broncs!

Locky knows. Especially these three words - defence is attitude.

 

[Donald Garner]

Our players are more than capable of it. TPJ and Fifita are capable of making more offloads between the two of them than the entire team has managed this year. I don't know whether it's because of explicit instructions to not offload or because our spine (save Nikorima) rarely supports the ball carrier.

This is a hard one.

Yes we haven’t been offloading but we have also been dropping a lot of ball and with offloading comes the risk of errors and turnovers. We need to find a balance between playing smart controlling footy and risking an offload.

I agree that TPJ and co are more then capable but I think at the moment a completion rate of about 90% is more important. We complete our sets and kick well we win easily!

 

[Alec]

Lack of offloads is probably due to lack of support. Broncos haven't been a side that had players running in support particularly much. There was Milford in 2015, and before that was probably Lockyer.

Parker still managed to offload quite often, though it ended up being more like an extra hit up in the set.

Tigers had an 81% completion rate with more kicks and kick meters last week, but were creamed 51-6 by the Eels.
The competition has evolved, one out bash and barge will not win us many games. The Roosters, Storm and Rabbitohs all shift the ball early in half and look for that offload with their more dynamic and game aware no. 9's.

We were electric in 2015 when Blair, Parker & McGuire were offloading at will.

Yeh wish we had Will back.

13 - rub it in with a field goal.

 

[Wolfie]

If we cant beat the Sharks, then i dont know where we go.

 

[Sirlee oldman]

We have got this. Can’t wait.

 

[Alec]

If we are losing to the Sharks late in the game, someone just cut the power like the Brisbane Heat did.

 

[Foordy]
