If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

 

[mrslong]

His defence is turnstyle....

 

[Porthoz]

All of them. Remember last year when he was saying Jack Reed was no chance.

I think you're mixing up 2 different persons, although both used to have the word BIG in their name... :wink:

 

[Bull Shark]

Just a slight side bar to this debate - regardless of who plays the 6,7 or leftrightout position, it'll be a very pleasant change and an advantage for the broncos that their halves combination will be able to remain intact through the representative period. Basically no more 'baby broncos' weekends where we all cross our fingers and hope for the best.

Hoffman, Beale, Yow Yeh, Hodges, Reed, Thaiday, Glenn, Parker, Hannant and Civoneciva are all reps. Add to them potentially McGuire and Gillett, even McCullough if he keeps progressing the way he has in the last months, and we're looking at 10, potentially 13 reps in our starting 17 squad...

You were saying? :sigh:

Wtf is is with that ---> :sigh: - Sorry to ruin your morning you cranky little punce ..

Hoffman and Reed are inelligible for origin ... Beale, Glenn, McGuire and Gillett have never played and have quite a few incumbents ahead of them in a squad that's won six (6) origin series in a row. Who's spots are they all going to take ? Huh ?

McCullough is going to trump Cameron Smith for the #9 jersey ey ? that's laughable …

Petro has hinted he'll likely retire from rep football (?) so that leaves Hodges, Yow Yeh, Thaiday, Hannant and possibly Parker as the only players you can pencil in at this stage.

Hoffman, beale, Glenn and Reed won't be playing in Origin.

McGuire, Gillett and Macca are only "possibly"

Hodges is rumored to retire from Rep Duties and Petro could possibly pull the pin as well.

That leaves Parker, Thaiday, Yow Yeh and Hannant as the only ones who I think we will miss due to rep duties.

He said rep players not origin players. Glenn, Beale, Hoffman & Reed have all been mentioned in international sides, ergo REP player.

well that has little to no relevance to the original point I made regarding the broncos being largely spared the disruption of previous years when it comes to players having to sit out / back up from rep games during the course of the season.

Players don't sit out the week before the anzac test so it's basically origin that I was referring to.

 

[mrslong]

true it doesn't. lol.

 

[Mangrove Jack]

Have I missed something here about Gagai being 5/8th? I mean WTF! He hasn't shown much in his games on the wing yet

Not what the coaching staff thinks

 

[Jeba]

Not what the coaching staff thinks

Another one of your big calls. You haven't got one right yet!!! You had Yow Yeh down as our full-time centre earlier in the year. What happened there?

 

[Bucking Beads]

Not what the coaching staff thinks

I wasn't aware the coaching staff at the broncos made a habit of visiting mental homes and discussing their thoughts on players, tactics and attitudes??

 

[Mangrove Jack]

When did I say Yow Yeh will play centre full time? I said he was next in line if the starting centres didn't perform in the early rounds.
You said Yow Yeh was no chance in the world to play centre.
Well guess what.. who played centre against the Storms? Yow Yeh did.
You read any recent articles, Yow Yeh wants to play centre.

So I am right once again. Game set match to me.

Hmm. Considering Justin Hodges spent considerable time injured, Gerard Beale spent a lot of time in the centres...rather than Yow Yeh.

Yow Yeh's a winger, and was always going to be played as a winger.

Muppet jack is on the attack. He serves an ace. But it was a foot fault..

Jeba argued earlier in the year that Yow Yeh will never play center for the Broncos EVER!!!
Poor Jeba proven wrong again.

Yow Yeh will end up in the centres. He won't be playing wing for the rest of his career. Straight from the horses mouth.
