PRE-GAME Round 4 - Broncos vs Raiders

[Dash]

Would just like to point out that Dave Taylor is listed at 131kg on the Raiders website..

Is he the biggest man ever to play in the NRL?

I seem to remember Fatsiano being billed as 135kg+ a couple of years ago.

Holly shizenhouzen... 131kg... I saw him once at the supermarket and could not believe the size of him.

He is not that weight now I believe. I think he is around 120 kilos now. Looking very fit I think. Played strongly with only the one dropped ball that I saw.

 

[Danoz Direct]

Looked forward to having TPJ back.

He dropped the ball twice despite some strong carries. I just don't think he will get any better barring a miracle.

Hasn't he pulled up fit?

With TPJ back, does anyone think that Glenn or Arrow might get dropped for Benji.

Sorry I meant looking forward to have him back this week.

I didn't like the use of Benji last week. He struggled defending in the middle and with macca on the field at the same time the storm sent big men straight at it and had miles of space to work with.

I think Bennett needs to rotate his 18th man a bit more as Benji has had no football this year and was thrown into the middle against a rampaging storm outfit

With TPJ back, does anyone think that Glenn or Arrow might get dropped for Benji.

I thought Arrow was very good last week. Glenn has had a tough few weeks and has had the least impact of any of our bench forwards but Benji really didn't look like he added anything so I would leave him out.

 

[Renegade]

Drop Benji, he did nothing against the Storm, Arrow was good. Need Glenn as a utility.

I was really impressed with Glenn off the bench last season but so far this year he hasn't really offered much. He's just been getting smashed and missing tackles.

Yeah, there was a lot of talk from the Raiders about how Taylor was shedding the kilo's in the pre-season.

I can't believe he was around 140kg-150kg beforehand..
