PRE-GAME [Round 18, 2024] Broncos vs Panthers

[Skyblues87]

Is there any point persisting with Madden?

Rogers should be given his chance

 

[Totally Unr3al]

Cameron Smith and Cooper Cronk couldn’t win a comp with the lowest time in possession of any team in the league

Sure injuries and changes haven’t helped but we need to stop dropping the ball…immediately

 

[Brett Da Man LeMan]

FIL just told me the panthers are resting half their squad. So they'll all be nice and refreshed vs the Broncs! Probably with cleary back too cuz why the **** not!!

 

[Battler]

Take Drinkwater and Townsend (who are both far worse than Arey and Walsh ofc) and see how Dearden goes. Mam just has nothing around him atm

 

[theshed]

How long until Reyno is back? 6 weeks?

I think Madden has to go. He can’t kick us out of trouble and he doesn’t seem to be vocal in attack at all.


I’d either give Rogers ago, or try something wild like giving Ezra the 7 jersey and saying it’s your team now bud, do your worst.

With Reece at the back, also kicking, and Mam playing both sides, I don’t really care who plays 6.

What if you play Ezra 7 and Walsh 5/8
Arthurs 1

Could do. I would actually play Walsh at 5/8 in attack and Cobbo at 5/8 in defence. Cobbo fullback in attack and Walsh at FB in defence.

But I know that’s a bit of a cooked idea

Well if we lose a few more games and we have not much to lose anything is worth a try.

 

[Super Freak]

It’s not going to matter who’s at halfback if the forwards don’t aim up which they haven’t been.

Madden was doing just fine until the side went to shit and he started having to play off the back foot because our forwards are getting bashed.

Rogers at 7, Mam at 7, won’t change shit until the rest of the side starts putting in the effort.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Halfback is only an issue if your forward pack is beaten. Reynolds would look rubbish behind our pack at the moment

Not true. Reyno is experienced and talented enough to play off the back foot. His kicking and smart patches over a lot of issue our team has had for a long time. Still would’ve lost a few even with him though.

I’m not expecting Madden to be Adam though

Didn’t help us in the grand final though did it

 

[Lostboy]

Do they use that sticky spray?
We need Alfie out there spraying our player ever chance he gets?

 

[Galah]

Random question but how long ago was moose brought in?

GF is better than 9th

 

[Bucking Beads]

GF is better than 9th

There’s many factors why we’re 9th. It’s actually unfair how many people expect the world from a guy who has never proved he’s up to it.

Could do. Willison FB, Baker HB but defending at prop, one armed Reyno at hooker and Kevy to 5/8 but defending from the bench.

That should fix the ball handling up real nice.

Give the ball two coats as well.
