Is that the same lineup that ran out yesterday?

yeah it is

I like this side.

It's our best possible lineup (apart from Folau of course)

If we can keep this side together for the next 4 weeks we might just be able to pull off 3 wins out of our remaining games, which would get us into the 8 (hopefully) We should take a lot of heart out of the performance against the Sharks ... particularly our linespeed which was a lot better than it has been lately.

The Panthers are in pretty good form at the moment and have been playing quite well. Let's hope they start their downward slide this Sunday icon_thumbs_u

The Sharks game was no real threat to us. This game will determine whether or not we have changed our attitude towards actually trying and giving it our all and will be a good indication of what to expect in the remaining rounds

Last night means very very little. It's a sign our attitude is turning around, but seriously, the Sharks were the only team we could beat last night. But hopefully it's played us into some form.

Panthers will be a different kettle of fish. Much more dynamic in attack.

Agreed and thats when our lapses of defence will be shown for what they are unless theres a serious improvement.

 

[Coxy]

And it could happen. But the Broncos have to expect a hard game, be up for a hard game and grind it out for 80 minutes, and be ready to tackle anything that moves.

 

[Bucking Beads]

The Panthers are great in attack so we will really need to improve in defence dramatically. I don't want the Panthers to score anymore than 2 tries. Our attack also needs work especially our kicking game.

thats a pretty light bench the Panthers are going to have on Sunday eusa_think

 

[Bucking Beads]

Panther have a pretty good side even with a few injuries. On current form the Panthers should win.

 

[Abe The Cop]

Looks like both teams are pretty close to full strength. Should be a good game.

 

[Jeba]

I'd like to see Locky send a few bombs Sammut's way. He's terrible under the high ball!!!!!

Lookin' forward to the game. Love my Sunday footy!!!

 

[mrslong]

I like this side.

It's our best possible lineup (apart from Folau of course)

and Clinton....he's still injured.

 

[Mister Wright]

Should be a good game, if the attitude shown last night is replicated on Sunday. I don't think we've won a day game this season. There's only been 2. There was the 2nd half surrender against the Sea Eagles and the frustrating game against the Eels. Third time lucky perhaps.

 

[Kimlo]

When is Folau back? Next week?

 

[Foordy]

When is Folau back? Next week?

according to the official Broncos website, he is due back in round 25.

 

[Kimlo]

ohhh...
Anyone here have "inside word" about Folau making an early comeback ?
