Broncos Vs. Dragons - Build Up Thread

[ningnangnong]

Defence needs to improve massively.

 

[rnabokov]

Everything's there except discipline ... and Hunt.

 

[Bucking Beads]

I will be in the Western stand for this match with my yelling voice on. We will win this one because we have to. If we don't we probably can't make the 8 now.

Our defence has been good lately, except for tonight's game. I'm sure it'll improve. Someone needs to tell Gillett to stop trying to be a 5/8th as well, he's much better when he just runs the ball.

Our line speed in defence is crap. Period.

 

[renouf]

Pick some bloody forwards who can play ffs

 

[Big Pete]

Should be an easier clash than the Roosters one.

 

[Jeba]

Some strong mail on the radio that Hodges will be back for this one.

 

[Big_Dave]

Bring back Setu FFS!!

 

[renouf]

Bring back Setu FFS!!

Yep, I don't know what Henjak is thinking with McGuire and Dodds, Setu should be back in the side and Sims would give us some much needed grunt up front.

Not sure if it has been mentioned in another thread or not but on Twitter:

Ben Te'o has a possible broken foot. Scan tomorrow but if confirmed he will be out for 4 to 6 weeks.

Would be very handy to have Hodges back this week and shift Glenn to the back row. Would cause the least disruption. And I have defended him a fair bit this season, but Winterstein's lack of ability under the high ball is really starting to cost us. Do we know what the go is with Kemp? If fit I would bring him in.

Setu needs to come back in and start to offer a bit more mobility. I'd like to see Hunt drop off the bench and add another foward, probally Anderson or maybe Sims. Teo out for 4-6weeks isnt good but Gillet should handle it.

Copley is injured Brizz. Shoulder injury and out for an indefinate period, which is a shame because I would bring him in as well.

I heard Copley was out for the season. If Kemp wasnt injured Winter would be gone IMO. Woeful to say the least

 

[The Brizz]

Anyone but Winterstein, he is leaving anyway so he can get farked.

 

[The Brizz]

Copley is injured Brizz. Shoulder injury and out for an indefinate period, which is a shame because I would bring him in as well.

It is a pity coz he looks like a quality prospect at least he might be able to contest a high ball, Winterstein is useless. What concerns me is Henjak won't change anything other than replace Te'o because we brought it back close. If I were him I would make a few changes (that might just be swap starters with bench guys) because our props particularly got thoroughly smashed tonight.

I'd say the only other options would be Kemp who is injured and maybe Gagai. I have only watched him play once or twice but was impressed. It would be a big step up from Toyota cup.

If the rumours about Hodges are true then maybe Alex Glen could play wing. He scored a couple last year on the wing if i remember correctly.

I tell you though, im not looking foward to Jamie Sowards Spiral bombs directed at Winters wing if he doesnt improve thats for sure otherwise Winter could be doing a few of these ones :oops: :oops: infront of a 40000+ crowd on sunday
