[2025 Trial] Broncos vs Bulldogs

I'm exceptionally confident that you don't have to worry about it being a Tigers v Broncos grand final.
I have faith in our team Her's not so much since they are back to back to back wooden spooners. If I gave her three of them my ass will be sore from all the Sass I gave to her about her team. She always says to people my daughter rubs it in my face about my team then they ask her which is her team and then they have a laugh they say what about you do you do for the Tigers I am like no I am broncos supporter they look at her and then back at me saying good girl to me and they say to her chose a different team
 
It will be interesting to see how Madge builds a bench. He might not follow the Kevvie formula, and I'm certain he won't need his hookers to take up two interchanges. He could name a different kind of utility who can also handle a short stint at dummy half. I think he would've rotated Jock into dummy half more if he was considering him for that role.

I expect he'll select Billy at 14, but it won't be on the basis of his performance in this game.
Smoothy will be the bench Utility. Why do you think he come on a lock to show McGuire he's skills in the forwards too.
 
Any injuries?
Staggs went off early with some quad tightness... think it's been the same thing that made him miss the internationals and all stars game.

Don't think the broncos were too worried, but he'll have two weeks to rest it before round 1
 
Not sure if anything has been said about Walsh.

He was limping down the sideline with his knee iced. Looks like he just tweaked it.
I think the sideline said he was sweet... the limp was probably because the tape was too tight around the ice and couldn't get any movement
 
He looked way out of his depth.

This is where previously we may have just kept him on, because good bloke, has been there all preseason, we probably won't need to play him anyway, etc.

But I'm wondering if Madge saw that and went "nope we need a better back up than him"

I don't like having to rely on Cobbo or Arthars either... they're both starters... we do have Mariner and Shiba that can then cover whichever one moves, but it's not ideal having to shuffle starters around to cover an injury, suspension, HIA, origin duty or even restings after origin
We have some winger replacements if we need to move Cobs or Arthars there. We will be ok.
