Round 14 - Raiders vs Broncos

Gamble should be permitted to come into the squad, but it’s the nrl soo...

He couldn't catch Covid in Melbourne at the moment

Couldnt catch COVID in india more like it

 

[Shane Tronc]

Should we go Asiata to 7 and Paix to bench?

 

[McHunt]

I would prefer to see Paix get a run - his ISC form has earned it - but Gamble has a couple of things in his favour: it would mean not having two new halves, and he can kick goals. Though Paix has played more games with Hunt. Whoever pairs with KHunt is going to need to make up for him not having the legs of a 20 year old.

Payback time

Walters says:

“If he’s out, we’ll look at what options we have available,” Walters said of Kelly’s setback.

“We will look at our options, we will look to bring someone in from outside the squad, we are looking into our options if Albert is out, which is likely.

“Tyson will come back in if we can bring him into the squad which we feel we can.

“It’s the NRL, that’s what happens. You get to the final training session and a player goes down, we have to be strong enough mentally to get over that.”

Kelly is out with a hamstring injury according to NRL.com Gamble (not in the squad) or Paix are the options to replace him.

Hopefully Paix only replaces Kelly if the NRL don't approve Gamble to come into the team

Should be allowed to... Broncos consider Paix a hooker nowadays so it isn't a direct replacement.

It would be like forcing the tigers to use Simpkin if Brookes went down injured

I get the sense Kevvie is looking at his options.

Come on man, the NRL don't do our club any favours.

 

[BroncsFan]

Well if they dont then we should publically call them out.

Kevvie has now stated that he wants to bring Gamble in and feels that he can... because they no longer consider Paix a halves option

Come on man, our club doesn't stand up for itself...or stand for anything really.

we have the former Melbourne CEO ... who i think everyone on here rates, and even he isn't going against the NRL on these matters. could that possibly mean, we're better off not speaking out

 

[McHunt]

Good news: Walters confirms Haas is backing up, as per the billing.
Bad news: so is Coates.

“It’s good to see Payne with a smile on his face, albeit at Queensland’s expense. He is bouncing around training and Xavier is looking to get himself back into some winning form, so they are ready to go and keen to get down to Canberra.”

It's good news that this is bad news.

Hard to know if it is better or not when we never ever speak out. Though the fact we continue to get smashed on and off the field by decisions that only ever seem to go against us would suggest speaking out isn't going to make it worse.

 

[Cult]

Honestly, what's the worst that can come from speaking out? Cowboys won a premiership from whinging. At the very least we get some good calls the next game we play. At most we get fined, have Karl Morris say it. He's rich as **** for some reason

 

[broncsgoat]

what’s the reason for not being able to play gamble… is it just the because he was not named in the 21?

Interrupted week from sickness (It's what I heard earlier in the week and that Hunt would be playing) and the NRL would make us jump through hoops to bring him in at this point.
