We need to be resilient and ready to fight. Agaisnt Melbourne in Melbourne you can expect three 6 agains agaisnt us in the first 10 mins and a couple of pure assy plays by Melbourne. That combined with them playing near perfect footy i just wanna see us get into the contest.
I was very worried after the first 3 rounds but last weeks performance was a very 2023 broncos performance so I'm hoping our shaky start was just a mix of grand final hang over, vegas hang over and the bad injury luck we've had.
I'm still undecided who I'm tipping with this one. Melbourne do have munster coming back but to be honest he hasn't been the same player the last two years and likely be underdone. Welch i feel like he hasn't gone on with it either but he's reliable and Hughes is just quality.
They've had a bit of a disjointed start to the season but they aren't unbeatable. For me tonight will be a big indication of how we are going. We improved out of sight last week, 5 rounds in and should be getting into our rythem so i expect another solid performance. If we don't win it needs to be a tight battle.
I want to see us run traffic at Grant, he's a real danger and i feel like when he's fatigued his output really really reduces. Make him tackle big boys all day long. Also hope we have a tactic for their air raid towards coates. We wont out jump him so I'm thinking just send the winger up to "attempt" to cacth it but our centre needs to be there ready to tackle Coates once he catches the ball.
