Disagree. He's chopped down a heap of players in the clear one on one.

Well for starters I said critiquing not criticising. Agree in regards to the Slater comment but by the same token, I think it's fair to say that Slater was a much more impressive ball runner and support player than Hoffman at the same point in his career. Slater would be lurking around the...

I think the overall sentiment is a little harsh. We essentially had a rookie Queensland Cup pack taking on a bunch of hardened professionals. Then we lose our fullback and centre, placing even more pressure on the forwards to play longer minutes. It's a bit rough to be overly critical of a team...

Re: Round 17 - U20 - Broncos v Sharks Haven't seen much of the team at all apart from Mitch Frei, who has been with Norths. He looks like quite the prospect though, big fella and tough as anything for a nineteen year old - not afraid to take the tough runs up the middle or on the fringe...

So what happens if any of Maranta, Capewell, Slyney, Baptiste, Wallace or Gibb are named to play for the Broncos on Friday? Does the rule them out of the residents game?

That's the one thing we've noticably missed since Locky left. Hodges doesn't get any early ball any more. Give him the ball with space between himself and the defence and he'll create something. Still haven't seen the Souths game but I heard Gillett was playing front row. What a terrible...

He's part of the Melbourne squad, so he lives and trains down there and only flies up for matches. Couldn't see the point of Brisbane signing him tbh.

Yeah, good teams. Jeb's is pretty close to what I'd go with. But in terms of trying to guess who'll the selectors choose.. 1. Sean Loxley 2. Liam Georgetown 3. Brett Anderson 4. Donald Malone 5. Lachlan Maranta 6. Brad Davis 7. Luke Capewell 8. Mitch Garbutt 9. Jake Granville 10. Chris Farrell...

BroncoMatt/Jeb.. the QRL are running a 'pick the residents team' compeition. What do you reckon? Redcliffe 1-17? :P http://www.qrl.com.au/default.aspx?s=article-display&id=57536&title=cup-players-press-for-residents-berth Will post a team once I've had a think about it.

Late reply.. but yeah it went pretty well for a first up trial. Had a few issues with the quality of the video and reports from people who said the audio was out of sync at times as well. But hopefully we can fine tune it for the next one. Only three regular season Langlands Park games left. To...

Queenslander's backline is the way to go IMO. The more I think about Inglis at fullback the more I like it. His form at club level has been sensational and his support play/second-man play execution has been just as good as Slater since he moved there at Souths. The biggest plus though is...

Definitely agree those were our best three.. 3. McGuire 2. Hannant 1. Copley

I said before the series that we shouldn't pick Petero and that we needed more mobility in the pack to counter what NSW would throw at us. He's been a great player but no one can play forever. But adding to that thought, I think Parker's injury really hurt us tonight - he would have got through...

Apparently Parker was sent to hospital with a gash that went right down to the bone. Sheesh.

Heaps of unusual decisions (both ways I might add, just so Rocky isn't stupid enough to interpret this as whinging) as well I thought.. especially Jennings hitting the ball out of Tate's hand at the very end. Goal line drop out every day of the week right?! Credit to NSW, their defence was...

Not sure why people are thinking otherwise.. it'll definitely be a tough game. The Cowboys always lift for games against Brisbane, they're a much better team at home and Thurston tends to have a blinder backing up from Origin.

Yes they probably should have shown a bit more urgency but a second rower getting back to cover a kick to the corner is still a pretty good effort in my books.

Who else was dawdling back though? There was no one else within cooee. Hodges maybe, but from memory he pulled out of the chase fairly early.

Yeah I've heard promising things about them but haven't really seen them myself. Only time I've seen Norths this year was when it was pouring down at Langlands, very hard to tell who was who.
