Round 23 - Broncos vs Rabbitohs Pre-Match Discussion

[Danoz Direct]

Huge game from Barba!

 

[Big Pete]

I actually thought last week was Gillett's best game since origin 1 for us.

Agreed.

What I'm saying though is that I expect to see his name in the try scorers sheet and to make a nice big linebreak for us.

Last week he was setting those opportunities up.

This week, I reckon he'll be the one taking those opportunities.

 

[jarro65]

Same 17 as last week please, with the same desperation showed.

We can do this if we're totally switched on.

Hodges is not making a call on whether he'll play until the last minute too, so that hammy mustn't be 100% right.

Unless I missed it, I'm surprised [MENTION=2221]Porthoz[/MENTION] wasn't on here jizzing over yet another of his flick passes. I agree, he had a great game, because he was waiting for the opportunities and not trying to force them.

Check the Broncos v Bulldogs post match thread.....

 

[Bull Shark]

I honestly think hook has been keeping tricks up his sleeve on purpose to unleash them at the end of the year. otherwise why would we have randomly stopped gillett running those good lines.

 

[1910]

Hodges ran well today, still has a guard on his hammy but I wouldn't rule out playing.

 

[CaptainHook]

If Hodges plays, I wonder if Reed gets pushed to the wing or they keep Maranta and Reed to the bench.

 

[Bucking Beads]

George Burgess won't be playing which is very good for us.

 

[Super Freak]

If Hodges plays, I wonder if Reed gets pushed to the wing or they keep Maranta and Reed to the bench.

If Reed gets put on the bench, it's game over for us.

Keeping the same bench that played in the Bulldogs game is a must. A huge must.

I would say Maranta will be dropped and Reed will either play on the wing, or at left centre.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

George Burgess won't be playing which is very good for us.

Very good indeed. That significantly weakens their front row which was the biggest threat to us.

Absolutely

Putting Copley on the wing? My marginal sympathy for Hook will evaporate instantly

 

[rnabokov]

It weakens one of their biggest threats to us. There's still Inglis, as well as kicking it to him, and Luke around the ruck where our defence is still not what it should be

 

[Big Pete]

If the captain is right to play, he's going to play folks.

Hodges in for Maranta with either Copley or Reed playing right wing.

 

[Bucking Beads]

I expect to see Copley named on the wing tbh. I'll be pretty surprised if that isn't the way Hook goes.

 

[Donny]

George Burgess charged with grade 2 and Issac Luke with grade 1. Burgess to miss the game and Luke to play with early plea.

 

[uptheguts]

Don't know if we can beat these guys ,but at least we go into into it with some confidence after belting the dogs.Would like to see Hodges mark up on GI.Hope that at least means shifting Reed to the wing or better still the bench.

 

[Cult]

We never do well when we are confident.. And we never do well when people on here say we have a chance. Stop it guys!
