[Hardone]

Alex Barr back from injury, this will bring some maturity back into the young pack.
Second Rower/Lock Hiale Roycroft, I've been told he had a solid debut last week in Gosford against Manly, looking forward to see what he can do.
Broncos have a lot of depth in there ranks with young players coming through.

 

[Big Pete]

Broncos off to a slow start, 12 points down after 15 minutes.

Dogs have scored both tries through their forwards. Sounds a little ominous for the junior Broncos.

 

[Big Pete]

Arrow scores his third try in successive weeks right under the goal-posts.

Bulldogs 12-6 after 19 minutes of play.

 

[Big Pete]

Broncos score in quick succession with a try to Jordan Drew.

Taylor nails the tough conversion.

Scores are level 12 all, after 23 minutes.

 

[talanoa]

hipgrave will never learn. thats why i have doubts about him going to the next level.

 

[Big Pete]

What did he do tal?

Drew has a double

18-16 Broncos

33 gone

 

[talanoa]

stupid stuff in the tackle and trying to fight the whole team.

 

[Big Pete]

I'd like to see him do an off-season with the first-grade side before writing him off altogether, but I've noticed some immaturity to his game. Saw him attempt a Dave Taylor pick-up, mess it up and slam the ball in anger.

Can't take the Gold Coast out of the boy apparently.

 

[talanoa]

drew is finally getting ball tonight and looks unstoppable. pondekas has been hard to contain for the dogs as well

hahahaha, classic.

im not so concerned about the lairy side of things, just more his temper and inability to put the team first. he has had this issue for quite a while now.

 

[Big Pete]

Bulldogs establish a lead mid-way through the second half.

30-24 Dogs, after 58 minutes

 

[Fozz]

Byrnes injured? He's not out there.

 

[Fozz]

Not a nice way to end the game.

 

[Super Freak]

They targeted our left side.

Taylor came up with some shockers in defense. Especially when he came flying in for a tackle and got nothing but air.

His kicking game is all class, though.

 

[Big Pete]

What happened at the end [MENTION=1809]Fozz[/MENTION]?

 

[Porthoz]

Fucking dirty dog *****.

 

[Porthoz]

What happened at the end [MENTION=1809]Fozz[/MENTION]?

Put Ash Taylor on his head out of spite, when the game was lost.
