[GCBRONCO]

Whats the top eight?

Whats the top eight?

Any teams except the Broncos

Every game is important, more so then important, its just a really good game for us to or challenge for us to get our teeth into, you know we've got a few of our origin boys back and we've been in good form in the last 8 weeks and coming into the bye, it will be just a good one to throw everything into. They've done remarkably well in the last 2 months of footy, turned a lot of things around so it's a really good opportunity I suppose to put a explanation mark on that, have our bye and get ourselves ready for the run home.

Are we talking about the same Broncos? In what world have we done remarkably well in the last 2 months?

Ridiculous that Jake Granville isn't in the top 17 and is running around in the QLD cup. He showed a lot of promise against the Gold Coast and Canterbury and looks like a real prospect.

You care now but haven't cared for the three years previous?

 

[1910]

Kemp hurt and off.

 

[1910]

Granville or Baptiste. Using a player who doesn't seem to quite be a halfback OR a hooker instead of one of these 2 is just insane. Especially with McCullough dudding it up more and more.

Good call should pick more guys out with dislocated shoulders.

 

[Alec]

Good call should pick more guys out with dislocated shoulders.

Yeah, cause it only started applying now. They were both superstars before Baptiste got injured.

 

[1910]

Yeah, cause it only started applying now. They were both superstars before Baptiste got injured.

Very liberal use of the word superstars. Three weeks ago no one knew who Granville was now he has to be there. Please, and a superstar!

 

[Alec]

I've been calling for a real hooker off the bench way before Granville even came into FG.

Oh, and by "they" I was referring to McCullough and Hunt.

 

[Broncoman]

You care now but haven't cared for the three years previous?

I don't watch the Queensland Cup besides the final so I had to take everyone's word about him. Saw him in the QLD cup final last year or the year before and he looked like a real talent.

 

[broncos4life]

Yeah, cause it only started applying now. They were both superstars before Baptiste got injured.

Superstars?... Please

 

[Alec]

It was sarcasm.

Before someone else misunderstands what I said, I was referring to Hunt and McCullough and calling them being useless at hooker.

 

[noisetheory]

i feel like we're going to win tomorrow but it will just be another win that makes us feel empty inside. that fall over the line 6 or 8 point win with a nice try or two and some one out efforts.

i guess i'm not expecting anything at all from tomorrow and hope for nothing but a big effort from everyone. an effort that shows pride in the jersey, and a desire to play for each other. the thing is if we do that well we will likely win comfortably.

Hannant and Glenn will play. I expect Hannant to go hard, he will want his Origin spot back. Kahu out sucks, Maranta is an uninspiring replacement.

Guys, just a few last minute thoughts on the big bash tonite:

- am super confident of a win against the pussy cats. From all reports, the lads have been extra-emely focused at training this week and are aware the time is now that actions speak louder THAN words.
- look for Alex Glenn to have a huge game and scoop M.O.T.M honors.
- Maranta to justify his selection with a try and some super defensive efforts close to the line.

In Summary: look for a winning margin of around 14 points with the final score looking something like 18-4 to the NRMA Brisbane Broncos in a free-flowing affair.

Enjoy the game lads and lets savour an overdue win! Have a funtastic nite at the cauldron or in your living rooms!

The fact you use "NRMA" Brisbane Broncos pushes your novelty account from mildly relevant to completely fucking lame.

If we don't play well, win lose or draw, then I think we ought to do what the Warriors did as reported in a few places: have a no-holds-barred team + coaching staff meeting the next day and everyone let's it all out about who isn't pulling their weight.

If that has already happened, and we don't play well - win or lose, then clearly someone has to start biting bullets and pulling triggers ... immediately if not sooner.

It's really do-or-die now, so i'm looking forward to seeing if we can lift and really show some spirit.

I also hope Glenn isn't playing busted. A bit of a rest might see him regain a bit of form.
