PRE-GAME Round 17 - Broncos vs Warriors

[BroncsFan]

It’s interesting.....
Seibs said in a presser that Milf will be FB and Boyd six going forward. Also that Kotoni and Gehamat, Xavier and Herbie are our future.
If he sticks with Dearden and SOS maybe Darius misses out through natural attrition.

The main thing Seibold points out re Boyd's move is that he wants him in the frontline defence... well he can still be frontline out in center

I hope this is Milford's choice, and he has told Seibold that's where he wants to play. Tbh apart from '15 he hasn't really set the world on fire. He's been solid, that's it. He yearns to be fullback again.

Nail on the head,
He hasn’t looked happy for a while. At the same time nor have we.
Time will tell.

We have Kotoni Gehamat Herbie Corey Jamayne Xavier and Jack to fit into 2,3,4,5. Sorry, no room for Darius.

Shibasaki can go for Boyd.

I don't have a problem with Milf moving back to the 1. It gets Boyd out of there and if it means Milf is happier and ready to play back at his best then fair enough. Boyd at 6 is not ideal but our current circumstances with injuries in our halves means we really don't have much choice. A cheese grater could defend better than Boyd and that's why our guys on the edges like TPJ and Glenn need to do everything they can to defend their 6.

don't they skip the origin game if named to play NRL ... at least i think thats what used to happen

You can if the timing is right. When the team is name the club says no. Carrigan made Residents and Broncos said no but they knew on the Sunday when the QRL rang they needed him.

Paix has been in camp since Thursday, bit hard on Monday 48 hours before the game to get him back.

Can smash the warriors as long as it forwards win the battle. This is where young bloke struggle to back up after a highly charged roller coaster like last week. Need the leaders such as Lodge and tpj to really step up and show some heat from the kick off. The young guns will feed off it.
Is staggs going to play on the right and farm the left in old school Broncos fashion of doing the centre numbering? Or was that just for Roberts?

 

[Mustafur]

I hope this works, TPJ has to step up like he did last weekend and we need another good Kicking Game from Turpin who will likely be the Exclusive kicker this game.

Fingers Crossed for no Injuries in game 3.

for 4 years Broncos fans have been calling for Milford to move back to fullback (hell every second team list both on here and on social media list Milford in the 1) ... Anthony Seibold actually agree with them, and they complain ... I feel like i'm living in bizarro world.

Boyd should only be named at center or wing, unfortunately with our halves crisis ATM, that isn't likely to happen

That's cool, but hes not a 1 for the current NRL game. I also doubt half the people calling for him to be a 1 would understand the work or brains required to be a 1.

I agree with Boyd to wing or Center as it will force him out of the side over time.

I hope Milford gets to feast on some offloads this weekend like Boyd did last week

Happy to see Milf get a run at 1 if this is going to be his long term position, he really needs to work on his passing game. The cutout pass Boyd does will be non existent with Milf at 1. Just doesn't have it in his game, doesnt have the power to throw a flat pass always looping. Would like to see Milf always sniffing in the ruck waiting for an offload like turbo does for Manly.
Boyd and Turps in halves is a worry, I can see us being so lost when in attack and can only see tries through individual brilliance like Xaviers try or TPJs offload last week. What's Boyd gonna do at 6? He cant kick and can't pass and can't manage a game. Would rather Paix in there. Long term Boyd has to be centre if Seibs won't dump him. Another danger game against the unpredictable Warriors. Need the right attitude here.

Milford needs to work on his passing game? "The cutout pass Boyd does will be non existent with Milf at 1. Just doesn't have it in his game, doesnt have the power to throw a flat pass always looping"

Um, We are talking about Anthony Milford, not Fred Milford. Go check out some of Milf's highlight reels before you opine without evidence. Milf's passing game is excellent as is his running game.

Holy shit, I just logged in to wreck that post, thanks bud.

Milford learn to pass from Boyd?

He's right about Boyd in the halves at least.

I'm tippin' the Broncos to win and keep building momentum. TPJ has his Mum up here now cooking his meals so as he said, all he needs to do now is train and play. If he's going to be more consistent now because of home cooked meals, Broncos chances of winning go way up.

The rest of the boys are going to want to prove that they are the real deal and not just a flash in the pan, so expect a big game from all the youngsters.

Milf at fullback is exciting (if he plays), Darius at five-eighth is unknown but there is enough strike power on the field now that all he has to be is solid. Milford Oates Staggs Farnworth Coates and Turpin (already scored a couple of tries in the halves!) are all exciting players, especially playing behind a big and fast forward pack like ours.

Maybe paix will get a shot after origin and Boyd will slide into the centres.
