Round 2 - Broncos vs Rabbitohs

[the_next]

62% to 38% possession
4 to 4 penalties
823 to 579 run meters
20 to 9 tackle breaks
99 to 168 tackles
9 to 20 missed tackles
15 to 11 completed sets

And we are down by 2. FFS!

 

[Wolfie]

I'm not sure what we are thinking. None of his games at second row give an indication that he can play at a high level there. He's strictly a middle imo.

He is a lock. That's his position. Never rated him on an edge

 

[Huge]

We've got this. Souths have made close to a 100 extra tackles and that will pay off in the second half. We do need to get someone else in to take Crofts place and I don't know who that is but were I coach I'd push Isakko into 5/8 and Milf to halfback. Who plays fullback then...don't know. I do know I'd get Macca out of there though.

 

[BroncsFan]

Fox commentary team talking about posession and the shot at goal costing us... nothing to do with losing your fucking halfback.... nah all because they took a shot at goal

 

[Sproj]

FFS can these fucking refs give us a spell? We're already down 6 of our starters

This is a good point.

1. Isaako
2. Oates
3. Staggs
4. Arthars
5. Farnworth/Coates
6. Milford
7. Croft
8. Flegler
9. Turpin
10. Haas
11. Fifita
12. Glenn
13. Carrigan

14. Bird
15. Lodge
16. Pangai Jr
17. Ofahenguie

Goodness, no one will beat that side.

[Viti]

I did like seeing the forwards linking up together getting 1 on 1’s for quick ptb’s

 

[_wwong]

Less than 100 people in that change room?

 

[Unbreakable]

Explain to me why we're playing McCullough on the bench instead of Dearden or Paix?

Dearden and Paix can cover 6, 7 or 9 comfortably. McCullough can't cover shit.

We almost scored the third try in the next set....Anasta hates the Broncos and he's fucking mole head

 

[Mitchell_Broncos]

Can they stop footy for 8 weeks then if thats how long croft will be out?

We can only hope, that would benefit Lodge as well.

 

[HarryAllan7]

ok now I just hope they call the rest of the season off. Let’s try this again next year with Bird, Croft, Lodge and TPJ not on the sidelines with long term injuries / suspensions

Yeah I was pessimistic preseason but that’s a monstrous forward pack + bench and legit halves.

 

[Kimlo]

Dearden and Paix can cover 6, 7 or 9 comfortably. McCullough can't cover shit.

We need an experienced loser on the bench to make the team appreciate wins more when we have to work twice as hard to win.

 

[Dazza 92]

so what is the damage on a AC in the shoulder...a week...a month..???

Tbh we should not have gone the 2. At that point Isaako was 0/2, we had all the ball. They were on the rack, and we decide to go the 2. It’s dumb.

I don't get why we have Macca and Farnworth. To me it's either a backline cover player or Macca to give Turpin a spell. Not Both
