PRE-GAME [Round 22, 2022] Broncos vs Knights

[Cult]

I haven't played or coached, but I did play Rugby League Live 2 on Playstation a few times, so I think I'm okay to have an opinion?

I think whoever is calling for Tesi Niu at 9 did the same thing. Speed is all you needed to win games

Be careful.

 

[Culhwch]

Be careful.

One of those times I did play in State of Origin mode, so I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about.

 

[Mustafur]

On Live 3 when playing player Career, just make a Hooker with all the stats on Acceleration, Speed and fend and spam try everything, giving none of your team the ball ever(why would you anyway they are stupid).

 

[McHunt]

Milford:

"It is going to feel a bit weird. It will be a strange feeling walking back into Suncorp and heading to the away sheds, but I’m looking forward to it and I can’t wait to show what I can do. I would love to get a win. The move to Newcastle has been good for me. I had a slow-ish start because I hadn’t played NRL for a while. I haven’t been stoked with our performances, but on a personal note I am just glad to be back playing football again.”​

​

“I did cop a lot and I think this is the change I needed. The coaching staff at the Knights have been great and I have learned a lot from Adam O’Brien. I’ve really enjoyed the club and I can see the direction in which Adam and Kalyn Ponga are heading."​

​

"I wouldn’t say it was hard to leave the Broncos, there’s no hard feelings at all. I had been at the Broncos for so long and you build so many relationships and lifelong friends. The Broncos were like a family and I will always appreciate the opportunity they gave me to have some of the experiences I had."​

​

“I played in a grand final at the Broncos. I had really good memories and to this day I keep in contact with quite a few of the Broncos guys, but this week I want to come back and show what I’ve got.”​

Walters:

“It was the right time for ‘Milf’ to go. His last six weeks for us last year was very good, but I felt he needed a change and he has got that change with the Knights. I actually think he is playing quite well for Newcastle and I am quite happy for him that he is still playing in the NRL. I’m certainly aware of Milf’s ability and he can be a game-breaker for them this week. We are wary of his skills, so it’s important our guys are switched on for Milf and they take away his time and space which is the plan on Saturday night.”​

Ben Ikin:

“I felt like Anthony needed a fresh start. I had those conversations with Anthony before I turned up at the Broncos. I just kind of felt that at some point, it doesn’t matter who you are – player, coach or administrator – rugby league has so much cut and thrust about it, that sometimes you can exhaust your capabilities over time at one organisation. The only thing left for you to do is to go somewhere else and freshen up in order to get back to your best. I reckon that’s where Milf was at."​

​

“On the surface, thinking about what Milford brings and what Adam Reynolds brings, I’m sure they would have played some great football together, but it wasn’t to be and we knew exactly what Ezra Mam could bring if Milford left.​

​

“As he found his way back into first grade last season, he finished the year well. He wouldn’t have been the first NRL player to go through a period of self-doubt and many Broncos players would have done some soul searching. Anthony wasn’t immune to that."​

​

“Ultimately, he had periods when he wasn’t playing his best football, he would have asked why and I think he decided, like the rest of us, if he went to a new environment that he might rediscover his best football. I have seen some of that since he has arrived at the Knights.”​

That at least puts you on the same tier as Seibold or O’Brien, so no.

 

[winslow_wong]

Surely we flog these guys and show Milford what he’s missing

 

[Sproj]

this week I want to come back and show what I’ve got.”

Well this will be the first time in about five years.

 

[Manofoneway]

Milf has a lot to prove to broncos fans. Bit worried about this week.

 

[vertigo]

Well this will be the first time in about five years.

Try six. 2016 we did a proper number on them at home.

I remember neutrals being upset milford added a field goal at the end of the game saying it was "disrespectful" or some shit. Just because they were complete garbage. This was in the middle of their hat trick of spoons, they won a single game that season.

We're sweet, I was more worried earlier in the year when he was playing for a contract, he's got his contract now.

Milford hasn't been too bad in patches but it will still be the case that you can run at him with big guys and it won't take long before you're through him especially if our guys make contact felt.

It’s what we should do to every half but we never do

It's what every side has been doing to Reynolds, particularly since he sustained the rib injury.

A needle only lasts so long and truthfully he needed 6 weeks at a minimum before returning. I'd have dealt with it

 

[Inside pass]

Yeh..but he will play through it …and we all have our own bit of advise on how to turn it around..so in trying to keep it simple .” Line speed boys” , just concentrate on Improving line speed and hopefully we regain that momentum and confidence.
Must also add support and sympathy to Paul Greens family ..all of us offer our deepest condolences ,such a terrible loss…RIP Paul.

 

[lynx000]

Well, Penrith did us no favours.
