Round 10 - Panthers vs Broncos - Build Up Thread

[uji]

No hunt kind of sucks. Not that he was bringing a huge amount to the team IMO, just reduces our already small hooker stocks even more.

I honestly dont have as huge a problem as (seemeingly) most people here. He just needs to stop getting the ball knocked out of his hands at dummy half, and quit it with the dummys that noone falls for already.

Hala had a cracked ont he weekend, good to see him get another shot. Will he be able to do it again???

I guess Hala will be the one dropped if Teo does return. I don't think he will though, we seem to be pretty cautious this year.

We are in the beautiful position of not having to rush anyone back, especially against the Panthers.

if thats the case i'd rather see teo sit out another week. give hala reward for a good game last week. just breeds more depth in our squad to give him more experience.

+1 And it's the bye the week after right?

Not too keen on Kenny starting tbh

 

[Coxy]

So Hunt's going to get some time in Q Cup hey? Probably good for him IMO.

agreed would much prefer Dodds or Anderson starting

Injured, fractured finger. 6 weeks they reckon

He has a fractured finger that requires surgery.

He'll be out for 6 weeks.

I'm not fussed on Kenny starting, but good to see hala rewarded for a good game against the Storm icon_thumbs_u

Shight. Would prefer he was dropped and getting 80 mins of Q Cup each week!

 

[Porthoz]

I'd prefer Dodds over Kenny tbh, but I don't know why Baptiste doesn't seem to get a run at all. I wonder why? eusa_think

Not sure of the Norman hate on this forum. He looks silky smooth to me, raw but massive potential. You haters will be eating your words when he cements a spot in the halves next year.

When the hell is Hoffman coming back??

 

[gUt]

When (if) Norman makes a tackle I'll revise my opinion.

Agreed 100%.

you are a retard, Nobody hates Norman they just don't think him on the bench is good. Him playing at 5/8th yep great anywhere else massive fail.

While I wouldn't quite call this a "must win" game, it'd be very very good to win it.

This with the bye next week would make it a 4-point win. Especially playing Manly after Origin 1, with all indications being Griffin intends to rest Hodges, Lockyer and Thaiday again.
