PRE-GAME [Round 16, 2022] Broncos vs Cowboys

[Organix]

Such a dog tackle from Fogarty. Reynolds was stationary, held and is just about to play the ball on a set restart when he lifts him and drives into the turf.
Then the late hit by Sutton.
Both late and cynical.
Let’s hope Reynolds can play out the season as his presence may be the difference in making top 4

I agree, but on the other hand...that's footy. It is a rough game and sometimes you're going to get a dog shot. Especially if you're a smaller bloke who is a threat

 

[McHunt]

BOM saying there’s an 80% chance there will be rain late Saturday. Hopefully it’s not too bad.

This game has the potential to be one of the matches of the season. I want to see a dry track and a lot of attacking footy.

All the weather models now predict the rain will clear up by Saturday morning.

Capewell just doing gym no field work.

Is this just managing fatigue or are there concerns ?

Reynolds doing all the work but red bib.

Reynolds doing all the work but red bib.

Is he allowed to wear it for the game?

 

[Kimlo]

Anyone else find it odd Reynolds is speaking about the injury so openly? Surely you'd rather hide that

I agree. Hopefully they are using it to highlight it to the ref as well though 1st late hit I'm guessing Reynolds milks it big time....

That would be part of it. The other part would be there's no point hiding it, because the opposition already know he's got a rib injury and will target it regardless.

Which is why Tyson should be the replacement, not Jordan Pereira.

 

[Galah]

I like he’s making it known, the refs will have it in the back of his mind.

 

[1910]

Tesi was pretty free today, mostly first receiver for opposed.
No Cobbo.

Yea great chance to put Robati to see if he's consistent in the starting role and giving Capewell a rest. I would also like Piakura get a run on the bench and given him a short stint.

I want Piakura to keep churning out 80 minutes for Norths. His form is starting to show promise and he needs to keep playing full games.

It'll be 6 days between this game and origin... so basically a normal round to round gap in NRL. I dont think Capewell needs to have a rest every second game.

He'll want to get back on the field because there's only this week and then Origin 3.

Capewell deserves a rest after that game and Cowboys are no push overs. Robati is a great potential player, I believe it's best for the team for him to fill in. I never thought of Carrigan either he definitely deserves a week off.

Resting, will train Friday.

Flight to Perth and back adds to the fatigue and less recovery time .
