Woooooooooooo.

If the boyses are serious, we should win this by 20 points. What's the bet the Burgiii twins grow some nuts again, the first half of our earlier match-up is the only time they've fired up in 2-3 years.

 

[Big Pete]

Late changes are in for the Broncos.

No Jaydn Su'A as rumoured, Ofahengaue comes in for Ese'ese with Benji coming into the side to replace Ben Hunt.

 

[GCBRONCO]

The late changes article says above the team listing that Thaiday will be on the bench and Glenn starting?

Sam Thaiday was named in the second row but will begin the match on the interchange list.
Alex Glenn will start the match on the left edge in the back row.

 

[Big Pete]

Odd, the team-list they posted contradicts that.

I'll assume they made a clerical error.

Hopefully ese being dropped dosent mean he signs elsewhere

 

[Big Pete]

Souths late changes are in.

Fuimaono will start with Kyle Turner dropping to the bench. Former Redcliffe Dolphin Anthony Cherrington loses his spot on the bench with Robbie Rochow coming into the side.

That suggests to me that Maguire's men will be targeting the fringes early, with Fuimaono running at Nikorima.

Big Herman just needs a breather

Dropped or rested ?

 

[Mitchell_Broncos]

Uppa Boys!

 

[winslow_wong]

Why do games start so late these days?

 

[Unbreakable]

Dropped or rested ?

Dropped, but Wayne articulated it in a way to make it sound like he was being rested.

Same situation as Offa being dropped last year.

 

[pagey]

Dropped or rested ?

Not sure! But titans and Newcastle are chasing.

Freddy: So, Ben Hunt...tough decision.

Benny: Yeah, never an easy decision.

*crickets*

What's the weather like tonight in Brisbane

 

[GCBRONCO]

Why do games start so late these days?

To draw bigger viewing for tv or to allow bigger crowds for games during the working week I'd say.

If it's a work night wouldn't people be more likely to go to the game if it was earlier?

 

[Sproj]

That stadium crowd is very un-Broncos like.

There goes to video montage of the calls that went the Broncs way, no ref influence there.
