Glenn is one tough mofo. Respect. Hope he doesn't do more damage though.

Klemmer out is massive, he's their best player.

Huge boost if Glenn and TPJ in esp with Klemmer out. But can’t help but hope we’re taking the cautious approach with TPJ not worth risking his season. If TPJ goes down think any small premiership chances go with him. Worry if one injury leads to another sometimes need to let it all settle down but that’s why we hopefully have best medical staff in NRL.

What position did Staggs play on Saturday? Need to ask dolphins to put him at hooker as well as second row for big minutes when not in the Broncs squad - we need him playing there as much as possible to have both as options. Given 1 more injury and we are out of edge forwards NRL would surely have to let us play him there if required.

I'd imagine that Glenn would be in some pain if he needed to push off on it. Best to rest him for a week

Staggs played right center and to be quite honest, he didn't look like he even wanted to be there. They also won't play him Hooker, they have Turpin and Pratt there who are both pretty handy.

100% with the boot, though. So good to have specialty goal kickers at the club.

They weren't particularly difficult kicks tbf. Redcliffe were pretty ordinary across the board. Kotoni did finish the game with his knee strapped, don't think it was anything serious.

Someone on 360 last week was adamant some of the young Broncos were developing very large problems with their egos.

I hope there is no truth to it or it gets sorted quickly.

Isn't that show on a mission to slam the broncos at all cost this year?

Wait your not suggesting that they would dare try to create the image of instability and problems with the Broncos? What possible motivation could they have to get fans of the game on board soaking up whatever they crap out? Just like I'd be shocked to hear them suggest a coach has lost the change room when that hasn't been the case and we have never seen that from the media! :buenrollo:

There was a case a month or so back when TPJ was acting a bit too pumped up and hotheaded where it bordered on immature muglair behaviour. Benny had a quick word and it was never repeated. If this is what they are referring to they are clutching at straws - very short ones at that.

Good. They all seem to have re-signed for reasonable prices and have all consistently spoke of their love of the club.

An arrogant and powerful young pack that are passionate about playing at the broncos sounds alright in my books.

Arrogance can be good but only so much of it.

If they aren't kept in line then it becomes a problem.

He had to play bigger minutes, they lost Flegler after 17 minutes and a forward down. He played 75 minutes came off for five minutes at the end and then back on. A one on one steal was his highlight.

He played on the right.
From the sounds of things, this game is made for Carrigan's debut. Glen in doubt, mago not exactly setting the world on fire. If he's been as consistant as you say, this has to be his time.

I'm willing to call it early and say big Joffa will terrorise the dogs down there and win MOM.

I'm anticipating the boys will probably score 30-40 points which means a member of the backline will grab the coveted MOM award. Milf perhaps, Jet possibly.
