Elimination Final - Cowboys vs Broncos - Pre-Match Discussion

[Big Pete]

Back from the dead baby.

Let's make the most of it.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

We have to match them up front. If we don't, they will roll us.

Hunt v JT is going to be a pleasure to watch.

 

[Battler]

Hodges out of FB in defense and into the centers for Reed is my only change. Hoffman back to FB (if fit), otherwise Maranta in defense, and Hodges in attack.

lets give this comp a real shake. we have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

 

[Waynesaurus]

Well somebody at the Broncs must have a horse shoe up their butt...............we've really had some major good luck with the results in the last couple of weeks. :cheer2:

 

[rnabokov]

The Storm game has so many valuable lessons to learn ... like DON'T play that stupid game plan again , and Hodges needs to pull his head in and commit himself to FB 100% or go back to the centres ... or why not, dummy half ... or 5/8. He tried them all, and ruined whatever structure we had

 

[noisetheory]

despite hte tough season its pretty exciting to get a go in the finals. cows verse broncos should have townsville pumping. the great thing about broncos v cows derbys is form is generally irrelevant when we meet, so hopefully we can go up there unafraid and willing to give it a red hot crack.

i presume it will be on saturday? going to be a huge build up

id definitely slot hodges back to centre in defense. not sure who comes in? kahu? or maybe glenn will end up in the centres..

 

[ivanhungryjak]

If everyone plays out of their skin, we might just be able to pull off an upset.

 

[Foordy]

Dislike me, neg me I dont give a shit.

Cowboys have a better chance at the premiership than us so I'm on their bandwagon.

definition of a bandwagon supporter ....

 

[Bucking Beads]

Reed is out. Need a reco on the shoulder. I think Hoffy in for Reed and Hoffy plays fullback when we defend. I also wouldn't mind Granville on the bench. It is a fast track up there and his darts out of dummy half could be handy.

How's that
we finished higher on the table after 26 weeks than those other teams. Luck had nothing to do with it

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Ah.. no shit?

You sortof owned yourself there, buddy

Then Hodges has to return to the centres. Who else for Reed in such an important game? I shudder at Hodges performance at the back last game.

Thurston will make mincemeat out of him

 

[animal eater]

This side is a freaking cat. Everything that could of gone our way over the last few weeks did. If Hoffman is back think of slotting him in for Reed and for gods sake have Marranta play fullback in defense and Hodges in attack with the threat that he gets shot if he turns into a big piggy out there again.

 

[Splinter]

Yep Hodges overplayed the last game. Get him out of there for 75% of the time and the other 25 will be gold

 

[mitch222]

Hodges should definitely play centre for defence but fullback for attack. If there is one team we can beat in the 8 other than the dogs, its the cowboys. Match them up the middle and let our backs do the rest. Our front row will be the key to this game

 

[broncos4life]

We're going to get flogged.

Getting on the bandwagon one week earlier makes no difference.

Your the kind of 'fan' I have zero respect for.

I genuinely hope you stay on the cowboys wagon permanently

Agree cowboys been better but **** bro, it's the finals. If we beat them we deserve to continue. If they beat us then I'll get behind the Qld team
