LETS GO TO WAR BRISBANE !!!!
Good luck for the game tonight, plenty of respect deserved for both line ups after the last Rumble.....this game could be very special all the Ingredients are there for a clash that could send shock waves through the eight....the loser may not be gone by Sunday and could still go on to win the Comp.
Last nights game was interesting in patches but only one team went for the throat in the end.
Going through the line ups 17 on 17 i have the Broncos three players ahead in the match ups but i won't bore you with the whole detail....a number of players in the forwards i have as too close to separate in any case.
The Halves Combo's :
Lockyer is ahead on his own.....tired legs or whatever, Lockyer can turn this game on his own.
Maloney is in very good form however and is ahead of Wallace in terms of the threat he poses in the over all context of the Match.
In turn i have Wallace just ahead of Johnsons Dangerous speed because of what he contributes as a team player to the function of the back line versus Johnson.
There fore the halves as a combined unit works out fairly even though Lockyers experience gives the home team the edge.
Hooker : Our number nine plays well against Brisbane otherwise like yours as far as the comp goes he is nothing special. Much of a muchness though Heremaia has a broken hand. Again fairly even though depending on which Lance Hohaia shows up off the bench you will face rocks or diamonds.....that will decide the battle of the dummy halves.
Fullback :
I haven't seen Much of Beale at full back but from what i've read his six game stretch there was very successful , Locke is in form in his specialist position so i have him ahead.
