PRE-GAME Round 19 - Eels vs Broncos

[GCBRONCO]

The next so and so

 

[rnabokov]

I have only seen him when he played that stint off the bench earlier this year.

He seemed reasonably big for a half (189cm and 97kg on Broncos profile) so he may actually complement Dearden in the halves.

If he has some skills then he could be a big body to put some pressure on the defensive line.. I recall him being fairly rangy as well. Hopefully he can hold his own in defense as well.

Looking at those stats again is there an opportunity he could be converted to a 2nd rower @Wolfie ??

Looks to be the same size as Wade Graham... although Graham plays with a lot of intensity so Gamble would need to have that in him to make the transition.

What's his play style like??

Hope he can kick. We really need a good kicking game. Doomed to have no field position until then given our (present) lack of forward momentum.

He is a pretty physical player. He has a decent all round game really, but i dont think he is an NRL standard half, not even close. Not sure if he could do a Wade Graham tbh.

Where's Haas?

Hopefully he’s rested from origin too

 

[Dazza 92]

honestly Parra, you dont score 50+ in this game your having a fuckin laugh...

If this is even remotely close at all....you're wasting your time in the finals....

Why arent we finding the few guys who havent played for us this year and putting them in..???

Maybe we shouldnt, they dont need the stench of this season on them before they debut...

 

[Super Freak]

If Boyd and Oates finally get that combination right again, we could actually score some points against the Eels.

Their right side is a joke.

because with our injuries and suspensions this year, we've pretty much used everyone in our top 30

They must train harder than they play.

Wouldn't be difficult

well Gambles getting a run out, which is long overdue...

Have Kobe Hethrington and Pride Petterson Robati had a run out this year?

If not then if they are fit they should be playing now...

Gamble isn't making his debut. we've already used him this season

Very energetic and generally makes a difference to games. Adapts really well to change, nice pass too.

When he came back to Redcliffe last year after his stint at the Tigers three games stand out- Dolphins were down 22-10 with 12 minutes to go against Ipswich and they go left three times and score- Gamble was massive in all of them and then he kicks the winner from the sideline after the siren.

Against the unbeaten Falcons 15 games, he slots in mid week in a new team and kicks five goals to beat the Falcons- tryl-ess second half so his penalty goals were pivotal. That was the game were Harry Grant made 60 tackles.

Then finals, 24-24 just calmly pots a field goal against Tweed. He's very calm.

Pretty Much all we have been asking for

Should have been given his chance, a long time ago.
Look how Souths Walker and Titans Forgarty have flourished so far. Being overlooked for years will surely bring out that hunger to perform.

So does this mean both Croft AND SOS are on the outer?

Who even knows if Gentle will be here next year or what the new coach thinks of either player...

But FTR, Gamble only got the starting spot this week because Croft was knocked out at training

Yeah I know but SOS was clearly dropped.
