Broncos vs Sharks.. Build up Thread

[Bucking Beads]

OK let us all move on from the Swine Flu debarcle and look forward to watching our young guns play next week...

I am hoping to see young BHUNT play I am interested to see if he is the light after Lockyer.. I would also like Copley to get a game to see if he can match it with the big boys..

Thats a mix of what I would go with and what i think will get picked. I wouldn't want Hunt and McCullough in the halves together, they are too young and we need a experienced player in the halves. Also went with Gorrell starting at hooker because i think McCullough will bring some nice spark off the bench. I also would like to see young Copley get a shot but I can't see it happening.

 

[Fozz]

I get the feeling Marsh will be named at 6 and McCullough at 9 but they will play the other way around.

I was really hoping this game wasn't going ot be baby broncos. We really need a win to get some confidence back. Defense, defense and some more defense please!

 

[rnabokov]

Whoever we play, if we neither get the defensive structure and communication right, and continue to play flat - without depth, we'll get smashed.

And I'd play T'eo at lock and have him running wide.

I was really hoping this game wasn't going ot be baby broncos. We really need a win to get some confidence back. Defense, defense and some more defense please!

On the other hand, the Baby Broncos game is inevitable, so what better team to play than the ordinary Sharks? I reckon we'll have a win.

14.Sims
15.McGuire
16.Wapau/Gorrell
17.Sweeney
I know it wont happen though.

 

[Clintos]

I would like to see the following team picked. I think it is a good mix or youth and experience, and is probably one of the strongest Baby Broncos teams that we're ever fielded. Most of them have had some kind of first grade experience and can hopefully do the job for us.

I would like to see Winterstein moved to the centers for this game. I thought he looked pretty dangerous there when he and Michaels swapped the other week. I would actually say that I would prefer to see Winterstein play centers permanently ahead of Folau while Hodges is out.

Seconded! That is probably the best we can come up with for the game against the Sharks and probably gives us the best chance of victory

 

[Abe The Cop]

Has Beale recovered from his broken hand? Like to see him at fullback if he has.

 

[ethos]

I reckon Tom Hewitt has to be in the backline somewhere, preferably at fullback.

From what I've seen in the Queensland Cup he looks the goods and would bring a bit of experience as well.

 

[spoonbled]

Hoffman looked the goods at fullback against the Bears.

 

[Bucking Beads]

The Sharkies are starting to hit form now so I think if the Broncos can pull of a win or get very close it will be a huge result for the club. I would love to see Henjak get the boys back to performing the basics well rather than throwing wide for the backs all the time.

 

[Huge]

I thought you guys (fans of WBs removal) wanted the ball getting out to the backs,more creativity,ball movement etc...is'nt this team and it's current performance exactly what you were squealing about ?? I remember WBs method yielded 6 premierships but of course you'll all say it was the players he had and nothing to do with WBs coaching....is Henjak getting it wrong ??.............who can we blame for the current crap we're being handed >>><<<????????

 

[Bucking Beads]

Yes Wayne the Dragons are going well aren't they...

 

[schmix]

What's the obsession with "blame"? What if we just don't have the right ingredients this year? What if we're a team that is building towards something great in the next couple of years?

Yes I imagine the idea to change coaches was to get an improvement (or for Bruno to get full control), but I think people are kidding themselves if they thought Henjak would be brilliant in his first year. He's a rookie. He's going to get things wrong sometimes. Let's not become one of those teams that replaces their coach every two years because they're too impatient to wait for results.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Who wants to get rid of Henjak???
