PRE-GAME [Round 11, 2025] Broncos vs Dragons

[mitch222]

Hopefully they spent about 6 hours just watching the amount of line breaks we had without support runners.

Ezra should fix that. One of his strongest points is support play.

 

[Browny]

Alright now I’ve vented my vitriol to all and sundry about how this team avoids the herd yards.

69-0 to the Broncs.

Cobbo to still get tackled into touch tho

 

[Santa]

69-0 to the Broncs.

Dude. You've got be more realistic with these predictions.

**** Ezra man. Shouldn’t rely on Ezra for that component and if the players bring this attitude we are ****ed. It’s everyone’s responsibility. Not just Ezra’s.

Yeah support play is usually a reflection of attitude... it's a "no talent required" skill

I more saying normally when someone makes a break he is 9 times out of 10 there in support.

 

[mitch222]

Basically unchanged besides Mam for Hunt. What a ****ing surprise. I'm beginning to think Maguire has no idea how to fix this shit.

 

[Brocko]

Exact same + Ezra, like clockwork

 

[Sproj]

Can we sack Maguire now?

 

[Super Freak]

If the reserves aren't in good form themselves then making changes would probably be pointless.

Though I would have put Cobbo back on the wing.

 

[Dexter]

Yep, disappointed to say the least. Sticking solid is one thing but to just keep doing the same thing, dumb.

 

[Bronx48]

I sure hope Maguire doesn’t expect Ezra to fix his problems. The fact he isn’t making any changes besides Ezra is concerning (& that’s only cause Ben is injured).

 

[the_next]

Still no Patty back to 13, no Mozer, no BTK.
Same shit, same result

Not going to lie kinda sick of this excuse getting parroted over and over every time changes come up. The guys we have now would struggle in qcup as well.

I can almost guarantee baker, paix, billy and kobe would look bang average in cup. At least someone like marty brings a hard edge at the very least. Not saying they should all be dropped, just an example.

Credit to Ezra, at least he looked out of place on the weekend and it's clear he doesn't belong there. The others above would probably fit right in.

 

[Fatboy]

Sorry Kobi but you’re a spud. You must have some dirty stories on Madge that keeps getting you picked.

 

[Wolfie]

I don't really remember this that well. Did he make some statement in the media to take Walsh's head off or something? I don't really have a problem with a coach recognising an attacking threat and telling his team to nullify it, even if that means roughing the player up a little. I mean, heaven forbid players show a little aggression.

I can see a few players having an issue with Payne and I think Reyno, commenting positively on the post by Sualeehehehe though.

I think it was pretty clear they intended to push the boundaries of roughing up Walsh. I think they went a little overboard with it, but i dont have that much of an issue,. Its more would the players themselves. They wouldnt say publicly they did, but privately they may have had issues, we will never know.
