Re: PRE-GAME - Round 22 - Canterbury Bulldogs

First game that I'm attending this season. In a mother fuckin corporate box.

So we will probably lose.

Give your tickets to me instead. I can't go so we'll probably win.

Halves Ready For Forward Traffic - Broncos

First sentence:

BRONCOS’ half Anthony Milford says he and partner-in-crime Ben Hunt expect to get caught in a traffic jam of giant forwards clamouring to get at them on Friday night.

As of now, Hunt is playing.

I'd be backing the Dogs if Hunt isn't playing. He's not a particularly gifted organiser, but he's pretty much Andrew Johns or Cam Smith compared to Milford...and likely god compared to Nikorima.

At least Hasler can continue with his hard done by narrative.

Pete Badel on Twitter says Oates to start, with Maranta to bench.

 

[Super Freak]

That's a strange one.

What impact would Maranta provide off the bench?

Mind games.

According to Bennett we might be starting Oates on the wing to get him more involved, and to help counter the Bulldogs big pack. Alex Glenn is also in some doubt with an illness, but is expected to play.

The master sounds like he's fine-tuning his mind games before the finals.

What's vidot doing these days? He'd be pretty handy for this game with his carries. We need the bigger bodies I reckon.

Broken hand. Out for a while.

I guess it makes sense from the helping our forward pack perspective. Though Oates got pretty badly exposed against Manly on the wing (even if it was the right).

just win ffs

 

[FaithinHook]

Super confident about the win here boyz. Load up and finish the working week off on a wonderful note!
Oatesey on the wing is gonna cause all sorts of problems for the pooches. He's shown in past games how hard he is to stop with his strength and mobility. I can see the bulldogs wingers havin nightmares trying to contain him.

Get on the 6+ win!

Re: PRE-GAME - Round 22 - Canterbury Bulldogs

That's probably the most likely option, but it runs into the same problems. Nikorima doesn't really have a kicking game to speak of and plays more like a run-first ask questions later style half.

The take-home: pray for Hunt.

Kodi does have a kicking game, he just doesn't kick in the NRL.

 

[Big Pete]

Didn't kick that well in the NYC either.
