Round 12 - Storm vs Broncos - Build Up Thread

[Son Edo]

Probably not important but does anyone notice this is the same position as last year? 2011 7 game win streak, lose R9,10 and 11. 2012 6 win game streak, lose R9,10. As i said not important but still.

 

[Professor47]

Rest Civo, Hodges, Thaiday for sure. Freshen them up for the back end of the season.

 

[noisetheory]

very serious mate. id rather throw away a game we might lose anyway and have our players fresh for the part of the season that actually matters

ah yeah no worries - we are on the same page.

I am going for GA

i'm doing the same. will probably have to arrive a bit earlier to get a nice spot mid way up behind hte posts. havent been there before pretty keen!

 

[azza.79]

Yeah, I think the GA is going to be the go, should be a decent crowd so will def be getting in early. Taking along a couple of GAYFL following mates from melbourne to show them some real footy so could be interesting.

It's a great little stadium for footy. I've been there a few times now. If you get a good crowd the place is deafening.

Those cow bells make me crazy though.

 

[ethos]

Yeah I got the chance to walk out onto the centre of the field earlier this year - looked a very nice stadium. Can imagine all the noise would stay well contained as well.

I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell

I am resting Thaiday and Hodges without doubt after this match and if Hannant, Petro and Gillett cop a knock I wouldn't risk them either. Hope to see Whitchurch debut in the centres or on the wing.

 

[Mister Wright]

Just took a look at some of the Broncos training photos. I don't see any there of Parker practicing his goal kicking!

Work has rostered me in 9am - 8pm on Friday... FML. With the brilliant public transport system what would take 25 minutes in a car will take one hour and 10 minutes so I'll be home by 9.10, the last 20 minutes of the game :(

Hopefully they offer VTO so I can leave at like 7 instead and watch most of the game.
