Broncos Vs. Cowboys - Build Up Thread

[Canga]

I don't mine the side at all. Simms and setu not being there will just make them alot more keen to work harder to get back in. Once they do look out.

Good side, I don't like simms so no complaints here :)

I agree, though I think Sims did deserve a bench spot for the game.

Not bagging you specifically, but to everyone who has opinions on who "deserves" to be there more (me included), it's pretty funny unless you've watched a lot of training sessions and all their trial games, monitored their fitness levels, injuries etc...

It's round 1. We have precious little to base who deserves spots more...and last year's form is meaningless IMHO, given the last game of 2009 was just under 6 months ago (and let's not consider what happened in the Broncos' last game!!!).

If that is the case than IMHO Tim Smith should be starting halfback if selecting the team from form in trials and training attitude!! What Peter Wallace did last year has no bearing on his selection this season!!

Way to misunderstand, but that's fine :-) FWIW I wouldn't have been too upset if Henjak had omitted Wallace for the first few rounds. Give him some time in Q Cup to test out his ankle a bit better.

I know exactly what you mean Coxy! [icon_evillaugh I was just being a khunt

I swear i said that a few weeks back :P

Good thing about the new look bench is that we can only get better as the year progresses

 

[Mister Wright]

I don't know why so many people put faith in the side selected on Tuesdays. How often do we see number 19, 20, even 22 run out for the side? (It's a shame we don't see number 46 or 52 anymore!) Wouldn't be surprised if both Sims & Setu come into the side.

Usually I would agree but I would only think that would happen if an extended bench was named.

Well i'm a bit surprised by the selections, but i'm also keen as to see how these young blokes go tomorrow night.

They're our future and we need to blood some young players at some stage.

The futures looking good at the Broncos icon_thumbs_u

Yeah that is a fair point Coxy. You can't really say who should be in and out on 2009 form. I will say however that I am surprised he is not in the 17.

 

[Coxy]

You and me both.

Surprised and very pleased with the side named tbh. I've spoken heaps about how little I'm expecting from this season so I think it's bloody marvellous that we're giving the younger ones a red-hot go. Honestly feeling pretty excited about our chances now.

For those lamenting our lack of aggression or size in the forward pack, I really think you need to step back a little. Yes, the Cowboys have big forwards and you recognise their names more than those listed in our pack. But the likes of Webb, Mason, Manuokaoforuauaoa(sp? haha) and the rest have been farking woeful in recent seasons. Big Michelin men, the lot of 'em. Our baby faced assassins will murder them. Bring it!

**** yeah bro (besides the not doing too great this season part). I reckon our forwards will **** them up!
