PRE-GAME Round 11 - Knights vs Broncos

[Super Freak]

Discuss.

Decided to get in early.

We will likely be without McGuire, Parker, Gillett, Thaiday, Hodges, Boyd for this game.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

We're gonna struggle, no doubt. You know when the Broncos are performing well in the NRL when Origin season signals the beginning of the dark stretch.

 

[Alec]

Our forward pack without those guys (minus Gillett) just won't measure up to any team.

 

[bb_gun]

I personally think Gillett will be sitting out this year, regardless we will be playing the Knights without Mullen so I actually think we'll get the win.

 

[ivanhungryjak]

I think we might have Gillette.

 

[CaptainHook]

We'll win if we have a decent kicking game. I won't hold my breath.

Wouldn't be surprised of Gillett misses out.

Think we can take them anyway. Mullen is out, their forward pack is pretty light on and we shade them in the spine despite conceding some strength in the backline.

 

[Ari Gold]

I think we'll have Gillett but if we lose McGuire I'm worried. Where is our go forward going to come from? Only Glenn would average anywhere near 100m and it's a big ask for Wallace or Joe to pick up the slack of McGuire and Parker.

My big hope is that we see Arrow replace Parker.

 

[Battler]

No Mullen, and they've been in shit form recently. We still have our spine intact minus Boyd (and we've played a fair few games with Kahu), so I think we'll be fine.

Good team but I'd stick Oates on the wing.

 

[Super Freak]

I hope to never see Molo again.

 

[Super Freak]

Good team but I'd stick Oates on the wing.

I wouldn't.

With our forward pack seriously depleted, we could use him there.

 

[CaptainHook]

I wouldn't.

With our forward pack seriously depleted, we could use him there.

yeah true, good point. I'm going on the assumption that Gillett will be available.

 

[K-Style]

Whitchurch in. ;)

 

[Ari Gold]

I hope to never see Molo again.

I'm going to stick up for Molo (somewhat). He's twenty years old and has played 3 games of NRL (that's like 21mins for him).

Disappointing showings so far but that can be excused for a 20 year old who has yet to play 80mins of footy.
