PRE-GAME [Round 3, 2025] Broncos vs Cowboys

[Loch Ness Monster]

Load on Walshy to score anytime.
Suncorp, dry track, expecting a massive bounce back from him.

Is it pronounced Dean Mariner or Dane Mariner?

Darren Marina I believe.

Walsh seems to be struggling to inject himself with 2 dominant halves. Ezra basically just caught and ran, Walsh was the dominant play maker on the left until this season.

He’ll need to figure out how he fits in now.

teething issues. when you add a dominant player like Hunt into the team.

in the article @Super Freak posted, it seems he's been told to focus more on his running game for the time being. which is a good instruction IMO, get his running game right, the rest will fall into place.

- Disappointing we couldn't get the two points, we were pretty disconnected in Canberra
- Excited to be back at Suncorp in the Carl Webb match
- Yeah for sure we need to learn to manage standards better
- We are improving and learning as a group but its round 2, excited for what's to come
- It's been good yeah in the middle but umm yeah, just working on those combos but yeah ummm excited about it
- I'm still umm similar to before but yeah, teams committing more to tackles...I got a lot of growth left and want to improve in those areas
- Yeah I think I will back Maguire in his approach to Haas' workload
- Sounds like Ramadan is limiting Haas' minutes
- Haas is special with the discipline he shows week in, week out umm yeah
- I will keep what Maguire said after the match but here is what he said...its round 2, learn from it and grow
- Cows-Broncs games, form doesn't matter
- The Carl Webb medal means a lot to both sides
- Both teams will be up for it
- We just need Reece to be Reece
- I've had bad games, we know what he is capable but his consistency around training puts him in good stead, he'll come good
- We just call a spade a spade, we missed the mark last week and were off - We are trying to look at the process not the results
- JT2 will be a massive lift for the Cows, so we will need to be on this week
- My actions will speak louder than my words when it comes to muscling up on Friday night
- We are still finding ourselves, we'll deliver in the first home game of the year
- Its pretty exciting that when the game is on the line, Reece is willing to have a go, excited to have him on the team
- Yeah ummm thanks guys cheers

Arthars: “We Can’t Wait To Get Out In Front Of Our Home Fans.”

In-form Broncos winger Jesse Arthars speak about the ‘derbies he loves playing’ and focusing on the controllables ahead of the XXXX Derby with the Cowboys on Friday night.

www.broncos.com.au

- Yeah its umm obviously nice, happy to score a few tries on the weekend
- Yeah for sure, I'm really excited, love playing these derbies
- We've worked hard to fix the things we need to
- Yeah for sure, can't wait to play in front of the home fans
- Hopefully we can put on a good show for the fans
- Yeah I'm loving playing with Hunt, learning a lot from him, just need to run the right lines
- We've been forming a good partnership on the left edge
- Yeah mate, we just got to do what we know we can do, we've been training hard and whatever the hype is it is, we just need to keep training hard
- Oh nah mate, we wanted to put in a strong performance but we didn't and so we are out there training to fix the issues
- Getting ahead of ourselves wasn't a factor
- Yeah mate, I love playing with Reecey, we were out there training and getting in some good reps
- Yeah for sure, Reecey is very hard on himself
- The back three, we are always talking about how we can be better at our job
- Yeah Selwyn is a big boy, he's been working really hard in the preseason and prep and trying to eat well and I try to run after him, not before him
- Maguire has simplified my game and has put in some experience around me with Hunt and Gosiewski which is great
- I give a lot of praise to my teammates
- I hope Toenes is back next week, it is great that there is competition for spots in centre, so nice problem to have
- Reps
- Wherever Hunt ends up I don't mind, I just focus on my role and what I can bring, that's all we can do, we just focus on our own roles
- Yeah for sure, reps

Hopefully if he's focusing on running we will see him sniffing around the middle looking for an offload .

Meh. Was hoping for a reshuffle, but Madge is probably right to give them a chance for redemption, Jetski and Shibasaki included. Nice to see Kotoni in the reserves. Shame Mozer isn't there as well.

I hope we see a different Walsh this round.

Hopefully a more mature Walsh, I know a silly thing to say for 1 week.

But I don't wanna see him trying to make up for last weeks efforts this week. Just a solid performance with limited errors. Don't need to see 5 TA's and 3 LB's.
