Not much we can change with the lack of personnel at the moment. All we can hope for is the attitude to turnaround.

It did last year after being flogged 56-0...I would hope surrendering a 22-12 lead against a shit team like Newcastle would be enough of an inspiration to lift their game.

What I am hoping is an attitude adjustment from the players from the flogging they are going to get this weekend. Lets hope it finally give them some fire. Maybe Ivan snaps and starts taking names instead of rubbing them on the back and saying "It's alright, we'll try harder next time". I am hoping for something positive to come out of it. Who knows, maybe what you said about losing the 10 point lead we had on Newcastle is enough to make them fire up this game.... but I doubt it.

I was hoping that weak display in front of our home crowd against the Warriors would provide inspiration for a lift in their game!!

Not sure who is in doubt but Mitch Rivett is on stand by for the game on Sunday

it would have to be Kemp, he left the ground against the Knights clutching his ribs. but why Rivett when Beale is 18th man, i would have thought he would have just slotted straight in.

I have a feeling he would be desperate to play. especially after being overlooked for the Australian team, with the selectors claiming form is the reason (even though his attacking stats are superior to both Lyon and Inglis).

Unless Beale is playing, Kenny is still under a cloud apparently.

I'd prefer to see Michaels on the wing than Rivett!

I know but Michaels hiding on the wing offers more in attack than Rivett. It is like picking which pile of turd you want eat with those 2.

Michaels offers nothing in attack, he always dies with the ball and doesn't know how to pass. Rivett is the better option, not by much but still better not to mention he has an excuse because he's inexperienced.

If Michaels was on the wing who cares if he dies with the ball!! I really can't say what I feel right now!! [icon_ee

It's rumoured that Spence is going to debut this week for Kenny who is expected to be out. I also heard the same about Rivett on another forum but I also heard there are only 2 players on standby which doesn't make much sense because we also have Beale as 18th man... Unless Kenny has already been ruled out so they are only counting Beale and Rivett? Ehh...

Anyways I'm stoked to see Spence debut if it's true. It's unfortunate that it's for Kenny but I really like Spence.

I'd like to see Rivett have a go again, he doesn't deserve all the hate he gets from most Broncos fans. Copley would be my first choice replacement though, I don't know why he keeps being overlooked.
