PRE-GAME [Round 18, 2026] - Broncos vs Sharks

[Broncosgirl]

This season isn’t going quick enough for my liking. Please end this misery once and for all.

I remember posting here about season '26. I said that I really didn't want it to begin. I wanted to stay in the euphoria of '25 and not move from there. Some laughed at me lol.

I was 100% right tho.

Madge’s inability to try anything new might be his downfall

Like what?

You have to have new things to try ... Origin and injuries mean we're already scrapping the bottom of the barrel

Other than firing up players to the point of super human output, what’s his actual rugby league tactics?

 

[Bucking Beads]

I was getting my hopes up to see how Tupou Francis went if he debuted.

 

[Super Freak]

So if Billy was never playing, why not just say that?

Madge himself even said last week Billy was in the frame for a return this week, but that was never on the cards.

Don't feed us bullshit.

I think and hope he still might.

Lets play a game called "Spot the darling"

He was cover for Willison, wasn't he?

Willison is getting an exemption so don't see him playing.

Does that include 6 agains?

 

[GCBRONCO]

Make Walters captain.

I think he suffered enough being sidelined through injury.

Don't think we know about that with Willison yet do we? Even so, I could see him coming in for Junt.

 

[Notbiased]

So assuming it will be Staggs or Hunt as captain?

A hooker that can pass off the ground, some young guns being given some minutes when injuries are pretty dire. Some set plays maybe? I dunno, man.

If only Madge was so lucky.

so happy that Mariner is back. The back line doesn’t look too bad if Shibasaki can have a dig.
