We are taking a risk having Roberts who might not be at 100% marking Mitchell who has been in super form during the first 5 weeks.

I think Roberts playing on is a great thing it means he is showing true strength of mind and his physicality. He wants to wear the Jersey and wants to show he will do anything to keep his spot.

That's fine ... but if your a hindrance to your team, then it is better to sit out and get your injury right.

I'd much rather he have the courage to sit out a week, instead of Mitchell scoring 3 tries down his side because he is injured

Our right side defence has been solid to start the year.

Has anyone done a stat for how many games we win on days where players have babies?

Well the last time it happened we won..

I can't quite remember if it was against the Cowboys last year or Knights.

Is it weird that I feel more confident about this game than any of our other games this season? Feels like an ambush.

At Suncorp, backs against the wall, halves under pressure, driest surface we've played on in weeks, Roosters due for a loss..

It feels right..

I don't think it's that weird to think so, last week is a good example of a game where we are expected to win given the way the opposition has been travelling, the media gets in and fires the opposition up and we get ambushed.

If anything Roosters are due for a win, losing their last 3 games at Suncorp which is very unusual for them.

If the Broncos don't click, they will lose. If they do, they will win.

It all comes down to whether the Broncos will click or not.

I want to believe this, you're right it has that feeling about it. But if we get pumped it will really knock any confidence they have left... there will be serious credibility questions if we don't scrap a win out tonight

According to fox sports Kahu may miss this match because he still awaits the arrival of his second child. David Mead is on standby as his replacement. If this is real that is big loose for broncos tonight. He is first goal kicker and field goal person.

Yeah but I don't think they actually played that poorly, Manly were just really good. My old man is a Roosters fan so I watch a bit of them, every season they have the odd game where they just completely stink and look like dropping every ball, that hasn't really happened yet, they're due.

I agree, I don't know why but I feel like it is going to be one of those games that we score a couple of tries in the first 20 minutes.

Will be so exciting if we are on tonight. I can't even remember the last time we won a game well. It seems like an age ago.

Hanging loose? What, toilets?
