Broncos Vs. Wests Tigers - Build Up Thread

[mrslong]

I just read that both Hodges and Gorrell trained today. Goreellll ffs.

 

[blox_party]

I reckon Farah and Hodges will both play.

Farah simply to push for origin selection and Hodges will be playing simply because Farah is.

Gonna be a close game, if we are good around the ruck then we'll go away with the game in the end.

 

[Black Philip]

Lets hope Henjak has the sense to keep PJ as hooker

 

[Nashy]

Gorrell. Did he train with the Broncos or in some poor Q Cup team?

 

[Abe The Cop]

Lets hope we play better in the wet (if the forecast is right) this wek than we did last time.

Flying to Sydney tomorrow night with my flatmate who is a Tigers supporter! What an idiot! Does anyone know how many tickets have sold so far?

If we don't massacre them we have issues.

You'll be fine if you don't mind general admission (ie. in the rain), but if you want under cover then I'd get in pretty soon.

Not sure, but I don't think they'll get that good of a crowd to be honest. A Friday night game at Campbelltown can be a killer - It's a bitch to get to in peak hour, the parking ain't great and to top it off, the weather is going to be appalling.

Translation: Sydney rugby league fans couldn't give a shit.

Hey Rocky, traffic-wise, what would you say is the best way to get there from Lane Cove on a Friday night? Just looked at a map and I'm starting to think it's going to take hours.

What time are you leaving though? It can depend.

Because If it's any earlier than 5pm or so then Get on the M2. Then M7. Then M5. Then take Campbelltown Exit. Easy. You'll hit a lot of traffic at the M2, but once you're on the M7 it'll be sweet all the way. Then once you hit the M5 it'll be banked up big time on the Hume (M5) because there are road-works all the way until the Campbelltown Exit.

However, if you'll be leaving later than that then you may as well get on the Eastern Distributor, then onto General Holmes Drive then onto the M5 as geographically it's closer and you'll come the same amount of traffic.

You should rename yourself Gregory. :mrgreen:

Lol so many Ms! I had to look them up.

We were thinking 5:30ish. Later if possible, but I'm thinking it's not. The problem heading through the city is that it's really bad getting in there on a Friday night, then I imagine it's pretty bad getting out the other side.

Whereis tells me to go Lane Cove Rd, Homebush Bay Drive etc, then right onto the South Western Motorway - bad idea?

 

[schmix]

Oh jeez, so many decisions. I think I'll present all the options to my Dad and let him figure it out, but it looks like the Ms might be the way to go. Thanks! icon_thumbs_u

This has turned to a whereis navigator thread :P
