PRE-GAME Round 22 - Dragons vs Broncos

[uptheguts]

A few people have talked about getting back to basics. Well I agree. For starters I would like to see at least a 10per centcent increase our line speed . Week after week we have seen teams making easy yards up the middle and on the edges , while our guys are back peddling.
That is just not good enough for a team which has such a huge supporter base who rightly have high expectations. I am sure there are many people out there like me who are so sick of watching teams get repeat sets on us week after week and our team getting bugger all. And why is that? Because we almost invariably start each set in our own 20 and half the time it seems it is up to Maranta to take at least one hit up. A job he is just not equipped to do. Every dam week it's déjà vue lately

I've seen the future and there isn't anything to worry about ! We will win next week and win well but the game after that is when we start to really get our mojo back. Fear not because we are going back into the winners stall. We won't win the comp but we will make the semis and give it a red hot go on the back of momentum gained in the last few rounds.

Apparently Kahu, Gillett and KNic all training well and are expected to line up this week... Will be no excuses this week

 

[Stix]

Hopefully Opacic stays in the centres and Kahu goes out on the wing with Thaiday, TPJ, Herman and KNic on the bench

Deep down I still refuse to believe we will go away quietly, it just doesn't make any sense what has gone on.

It's a bit like watching Mickelson's completely mental opening hole the other day, one of the best golfers in the world playing like a retard doesn't make any sense.

“It was just horrific”, said Mickelson, who teed up again and in the end was fortunate to salvage a triple-bogey seven after nearly hitting his approach shot out-of-bounds too. “It could easily have gone wrong on the front nine but I hung in there and got it going the right way”. “It’s more like, man, this is going to be fun”

If they can start to salvage some trust amongst each other then maybe it's not all for nothing.

If Maranta is on the wing instead of Opacic I will get on board the Wayne it's time to retire train.

(Although in 2006 I used to be just as filthy at Stagg being named in the centres.........)

He wont drop Wallace who has been one of our better forwards in the past couple of weeks

 

[Kimlo]

So that's Gillett, Thaiday, McGuire, Kahu, and Knik back this week possibly?

If so I'm tipping a revival to start from this week. All the way to the GF.

Yeah you're right... Remove Herman add Wallace- winning

I never knew you had crystal balls.

He's down at the local under 13's learning how to tackle

Thompson pleads guilty will miss a week, Frizell challenging charge.

GOOD!! I want every player to challenge contact with the ref. The fact Klemmer got off earlier in the season means that every single player from there on out should get off because they are unlikely to nearly be anywhere near that bad.

Different situation.

The judiciary ruled that contact was unavoidable because Cummins kept walking to him.

Frizell's case, he could have avoided contact.

We need him to lose people!

I hope Kodi returns this week.

I think Broncos have been missing his spark and energy.
