Toyota Cup is underway.

Manly lead 6-0 inside the opening 5 minutes.
 
Make that 12-0 to Manly.

To give you guys some context, Manly are late bloomers who started the season poorly but have since strung 7 wins together in a row.

Meanwhile, Brisbane find themselves in a slump losing their past three games.
 
Brisbane have responded nicely scoring the past three tries to lead 18-12 with only a few minutes remaining in the first half.

No word on the try scorers.
 
Make that 24-12 Broncos.

34 minutes gone.
 
Half-time in the Under 20s.

Brisbane lead 28-12.

Will try and get point scorers for you guys as soon as I can.
 
No late changes to the Broncos side for tonight's game.

48 minutes into the NYC and the Broncos extend their lead again.

32-12 Broncos

That's a nice boost for us.

Won't mean a whole lot but Blair can be clumsy.

68 minutes gone in the NYC

Broncos lead 38-22
 
Not a fan of Reed on the wing, surely if he isn't the best player for a position you just leave him out. Kahu or Maranta deserve to be there ahead of him, on the bench as well is another issue. I can see the value in Oates, Hannant and Granville but while Lowrie deserves some love for his comments this week he should have made way for a big man like Kennedy.
 
Lowrie and Reed shouldn't be there, but the rest almost picks itself.

I think I have more faith in Reed not embarrassing himself than Lowrie actually adding something worthwhile.

The 20's got up 44-34. So, I presume defence wasn't an emphasis for either team...
 
Will be good to have 2 hours at this forum without getting into a Bennett vs Griffin thing.

I wonder how Wendell Sailor and all the other great wingers that have been around think about their old position looking like a demotion at most clubs nowadays.
