PRE-GAME [Round 17, 2024] Broncos vs Warriors

[McHunt]

Zero chance the Warriors fold up like they did against the Titans.

Because they get Kurt Capewell back?

Because they get Kurt Capewell back?

Because they just got embarassed, we'll get one of their better performances, particularly at home against a respected team like the Broncos.

Let's be honest here for a second, nobody expected the Titans to win that game. There will be plenty expecting us to win this game.

How did the Broncos go after being embarrassed by that same team?

We went alright, the boys enjoyed the weekend off, chalked up another 2 competition points. It was nice.

 

[Bish]

Basics, basics, basics.

Complete sets
Don’t drop the ball
6 agains
Stop the offloads

Minimise these first and give ourselves at least the opportunity to win.

Keep being poor in these and we’ll keep losing.

 

[BroncsFan]

Who's going to be captain this week? (I'm assuming none of Patty, Payne or Walsh back up from origin)

Is Staggs next inline?

Line speed,
Kick chase,
Maybe using a link man so hits ups are wider on occasion (or is this too hard with our handling)
Back-up line breaks

You know - fundamentals of 1st grade teams

And we haven't won since.

Yep. Agreed

Walsh may back up as he hasn't played much footy this year due to injury

 

[BroncosFever]

And we haven't won since.

Mate we won again, this past weekend.

We plummeted back into the 8, you could say.

 

[Sproj]

It's more the way we've been losing than our position on the table. A couple more losses like these and folk will be talking about Kevvie losing the dressing room.

Signing Gosiewski set off the alarm bells for me. We must be under serious cap strain.

Did anyone expect the Titans to put 60 on the Warriors? No one is in great form at the moment, massive changes from one week to the next. Who knows we might get pumped by 40 and go on and win the whole thing. It just isn't all doom and gloom when we have been playing as poorly as we have been and yet are still in the 8.

I agree about them not folding and putting in a far better performance, but a 66 point game has to put doubt in defensive line and the person next to you. In short, there are no excuses for our team, they've ran out of them...

Full credit to Kevvie if we blow them off the park with our seconds.

We’ve also been embarrassed for a few weeks now. Haven’t looked like showing up yet. Maybe the warriors will be tired as well.

 

[BRC088]

Don’t drop the ball

Arthars trained today, and Hetherington said in the press conference he will be a good in for this week.
