Yeah I think that’ll be pretty bang on. If Milf isn’t right Darius back to fullback and I’m guessing Macca in the halves. Dunno what the plan would be for the interchange hooker.
Drop Carrigan and bring in Kennedy.

The Baby Broncos are set to unleash the “next Cooper Cronk” this weekend after injured halfback Sean O’Sullivan looks set to spend an extended time on the sideline following their famous win over Cronulla on Sunday.
Coach Anthony Seibold gave his first indication on Sunday as to who is next in line for the No.7 jersey – which has already been worn by Kodi Nikorima, Tom Dearden and Sean O’Sullivan in 2019 – naming 19-year-old Cory Paix as a possible starter.
Toowoomba teen will come into contention as the fourth Brisbane halfback this year as the Baby Broncos look to continue their new found form in their run to the finals.
O’Sullivan was ruled out for up to a month with a hamstring strain he suffered at the end of the first half of Sunday’s game.
Broncos centre Gehamat Shibasaki has also been added to Brisbane’s growing injury list after suffering a compound fracture in a finger which will keep him sidelined for three weeks.
Seibold said after Sunday’s epic 24-22 win at Shark Park that he would look at blooding yet more young players after Brisbane’s injury toll continued.
“Cory Paix will come into the reckoning I would have thought,” Seibold said.
“We’ll have a good look at him.
“Sean O’Sullivan is out for a few weeks.
“Gehamat Shibasaki has a compound fracture on his finger so that’s going to be a long time.
“(Anthony) Milford and Tom Dearden are out at the moment so we’ll probably have to give some other guys their debut.”
Broncos skipper Darius Boyd left Sunday’s match full of confidence about the future at Red Hill.
He said the Baby Broncos had been buoyed by their incredible win and issued a statement to Brisbane fans to prepare for the future.
“I’ve been saying all year, and we had a couple extra debut here today, we’ve got such a young group of really talented kids and we’re trying to keep a hold of them and sign them all up,” Boyd said.
“This roster will be very special if they can all stick together for the next couple of years.
“It’s been a bit of a tough time now and we’re not accepting that we’re having some losses.
“We can win. We’ve beaten the Roosters and a win like Sunday night, we know we can put those performances in.
“It’s just about being consistent.
“If you’re a Broncos fan, you should be excited about the future because there’s some great talent coming through.”

Given I am expecting all of Milf, Bird, Shiba, Isaako, Lodge, Gillett and SOS to be out.

As long as Segeyaro is in the team we will win. We are undefeated with him aren't we?
Lodge hasn't been charged??

I don't think we'll ever see Boyd at 5/8 ever again. Even with disruption we had rhythm in the later part of the second half. I loved Maccas work to be honest. Seggy kicks, Macca kicks , I think losing Milf and Nikorima has been a blessing in some ways. SoS was great until injured so there's a keeper for the inventory cupboard. Dearden and Turps are two more keepers and Macca's experience and direction were really surprising. Call me an optimist but the glass is way better than half full. I haven't seen Paix and he may be another keeper but Coates and Farnworth can only get better. Carrigan and Flegler, **** things are not bleak. Amazingly we've already got Haas locked up and he's not even accumulated a season worth of games yet.
If Seibold can really coach and our experienced guys feel the lifting tide we can become a tremendous force. The scare put into Boyd and Macca will hopefully make them into true believers and on top of all this energy we have the brilliant Oates and the reliable Gillett and Glenn.
I felt gutted in recent weeks but this win has stoked the embers.

Give it a rest. It isn't funny or witty, it's just petty.

People might be getting a bit ahead of themselves here... there was similar chat at about round 11 and we went on to lose 3 in a row.
We still have a lot of injuries (origin hasn't even been played yet) and will be backing up 4 days after a decider.
The guys didn't back up well last time specifically Fifi... and warriors always come to play at Suncorp. Hoping for the best, but definitely too early to be talking top 8.
If we come through origin and this game without picking up yet another injury I think we will be able to turn the corner for the run home and start to get some consistency on the field in the 17.. games against dogs and titans with a relatively full strength 17 would be great to see after the season we've had.
