Not sure where to ask this but, I know for a fact that we’re the first ever sporting club in Australia to have a Hyperbolic Chamber. Do we still have it?
If so, are we making use of it? It would be real handy to speed up the recovery of our injured players.

Sometimes it feels that the club (and BHQ) have a parabolic chamber, just an inverse one

Not a danger game for most teams but a danger game for us.....

I thought jaiyden hunt was actually really good, especially defensively considering he played 70 mins unexpectedly.

Given we are light on for forwards, I hope maguire has piakura coming off the bench and moves hunt into the middle for 10 mins after a 40-50 min stint at 2nd row. Having piakura start is too much of a liability, throws the whole team off when he goes off injured. Plus we get more impact off the bench.

Talty still looked great last night, but he was getting pushed back a fair bit. Jensen was bloody unreal, think it was his best game for us for a while. He is bloody strong for his size (still big, but compared to haas....), loved seeing stone get flattened when he tried to put a shot on him lol was comical, webcke-like

The commentators talked up stone for that hit even though he got put on his arse.

FMD, watching the Knights today - if we don’t win this one comfortably fold the club.

These guys couldn’t even score if they were in queue for a Bonnie Blue video

Knights won't play like this next week... they've got nothing to play for and travelling to Townsville... they were always in for a flogging.

Next week is their last home game for the year, which is their old boys day, so they will be up for it.

The spine they're rolling out in this game is awful though... Cogger and Arthur is a horrible halves pairing.

AOB will probably bring Gamble back in to try and get that ex-bronco spark from a player.
 
Knights really are trash today, but Adam Elliott is due back next week, and AOB will recall Hastings/Gamble who were wrongly dropped tbh. It's also nearly sold out for old boys day too, so they will actually want to win
 
After seeing a bit of the Knights this arvo, if ever there was a game to possibly give Patty a rest, its this one.

I dont think Madge will, as the 2 points are too important and we have some forward injuries, but its got to be tempting.

Knights are diabolical.

Put Patty on the bench for the next 2 weeks I’d say, only bring him on if necessary, freshen him up that way.

He`s been below par for most of the season .
Other than his work as a ball player he`s not been as good as we know he can be .
And those fcking ruck infringements every week . Jeez Patty slowing the ruck another millisecond is it really that important ?
And he`s no threat in th red zone . What`s up there Baz ?

Yeh definitely can't ride out any team towards end of season. There is always very odd upsets with bottom 4 teams in the last few rounds.

Nahhhh cant just understate how good his ball play is mate, we saw how big of a difference it was when Hetherington was at lock and not patty. Key player for Broncos lineup and very valuable, surprisingly ranked 11th most run metres in the whole of the NRL currently as well.
