Way too much pressure on Croft in my opinion. New team, playing halfback, organising plays and first time captaining an NRL side.

Horrible bench.

 

[heartly87]

Well the cowboys bench is not better 14. Reece Robinson and really only one prop

 

[Huge]

Horrible bench.

It might be that a lightweight bench will be perfect for the anticipated conditions. I know it would be better to have the match in hand by half time but Seibold may be looking to win it in the last 20.

Let's hope so. I wonder if there will be more moving parts, as in players moving to different positions throughout the game.

That's Reece Robson, a hooker who can also play lock.

I'm sure what became of Robinson after his stint with Sydney.

If we’re really gonna persist with Macca I’d rather him run on and play 15-20 minutes then turpin can come on for the rest of the game.

 

[Wolfie]

We are going to smash them. The cowgirls fans arent happy with their line up. I am

 

[CountingMaccasDiet]

can development player (bullemor) be named?

 

[winslow_wong]

So who’s goal kicking?

 

[Waynesaurus]

I can't believe the Cowgirls went with O'Neil over Opacic.

* I did post this in the Round 1 thread but it should probably be here *

Staggs

 

[Broncs_Fan]

Our bench really is putrid. Makes me cringe.

Hampton over Tualagi is the bigger one for me. Its Green all over though, always goes back to his older guys who were in the side on that fateful night in 2015. If they dont get off to a good start this year, i'm expecting them to fall apart. I know there are quite a few unhappy players up there.

Yeah, quite bizarre as well.
