Round 23 - Bulldogs vs. Broncos - Build Up Thread

[noisetheory]

i want to go down to training and draw big fat X's on the field with an arrow showing them which way to run for whenever we have the ball in the opposition 20.

then i will tell them "go" and they will all start running according to their arrow, until they can do it with their eyes closed.

once they can do it with their eyes closed i will have them do it another 150 times.

after that i will toss macca a footy and then say "go" and they can practice it another 150 times but with real life passes

 

[Mr Fourex]

Wallace was also playing more first receiver than I wanted, the team still played better than they have been with Wal and Norman running around lately.

Simple maths OM.......

Wallace + Norman = Shit

Wallace + Hunt = Shit

Who is the common denominator in these equations

We know Hunt + Norman = good/better

????

You and me and most Broncos fans included.

It's another reason why the Hunt & Wallace combo won't work. Wallace is getting in the road of Hunt's creativity and he'll continue to do it whether it's from half or 5/8. He wants to get the ball too much......

which would be fine, if the useless nuffy knew what to do with it.

Corey Norman won't. He'll eat up Hunt calling the shots with a spoon and be more inclined to play his own natural game.....which as a running 5/8, would be just what Hunt needs.

And if Wal was directed to let Hunt run the show just like letting Locky run it, he'd be fine. A running 5/8 is not what the Broncos need, especially with our centres. Need to be giving early ball.

 

[Big Pete]

So not only is Glenn injured but so is Corey.

*flips desk*

 

[IBA]

It was his shoulder, right? Any idea on the severity?

 

[Big Pete]

Early prognosis. Season.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Parker injured again??

 

[Porthoz]

Parker out, why am I not surprised...? :cursing:

I'm sure Wallace did it!

A typical conversation at Fourex's workplace:

- Person 1: Hey Fourex, good morning. How ya doing mate?
- Fourex: It's ****ing cold out there, and it's not gonna get better with Wallace in the halves I tell ya!
- Person 1: ...:huh:

- Person 2: Gee Fourex, the Aussies seem to to be allergic to gold at the Olympics.
- Fourex: With ****ing Wallace at half-back, what did you expect?
- Person 2: ...:glare:

- Person 3: Mate, Campbell Newman isn't kidding with his budget cuts, even breast cancer prevention is gonna suffer with it...
- Fourex: Wallace is like a ****ing tumor, I wish he'd cut him out!
- Person 3: ...:scared:

- Person 4: The Broncos have gone down the crapper since Origin. You reckon they can recover from the rut?
- Fourex: Not with ****ing Wallace in the team! He's a worthless piece of crap, not even worth of playing in the NSW Cup! :ranting:
- Person 4: I asked for it... :blushing:

This. This This.

And why isn't it happening?

It's been happening at Belmore all year

 

[broncos4life]

No way, we need Petero out there giving away penalties.

f***ing oath. Petro is so far past it it's not funny. That strip was so blatant it was pathetic

 

[noisetheory]

alright so without glenn AND parker, even if we turn the form/attitude around, i dont think we have a chance.

feck.

 

[Crazy Sam]

It's weird that we are doing worse this year without our best player out there (Hodges) than we were last year in the games Lockyer was missing.

 

[Bull Shark]

This. This This.

And why isn't it happening?

It's been happening at Belmore all year

the sort of things that are happening at Bellmore are gallaxies away from what's going on at brisbane ...

:biggrin: .........do we actually work together? Spooky stuff.......

I must have missed you're report after yesterday's game Porthoz. Funny how you seem to go a bit quiet when Peter Wallace is displaying his below average ability ......

at least to those of us without out heads buried in the sand.:winky:

 

[Bucking Beads]

What shits me about Wallace is every season he goes through this slump where he is the worst halfback in the comp. When he is in form he is a good player for the most part. He just falls in a heap and has months of shit form and the team can't tolerate that. We could persist with him with Locky around because he could run the show but it is not working with a rookie half like Norman who is injured and struggling with form himself.
