Round 6 - Titans v Broncos - Pre-Match Discussion

[wilson61]

You want proof that Granville cant tackle just go and watch the bulldogs game last year for my evidence. They ran over him multiple times. Plus, there's one other thing, Granville plays hooker not 5/8. Its like saying lets throw McCullough to 5/8, it cant be that hard when in fact it is as they are two completely different positions. I would rather start playing players in their right position especially in the halves. If Granville was as good as some of the people here carry on to be, he would be at least on the bench. Don't get me wrong, gives good service out of dummy half but he's defence for a hooker leaves a lot to be desired. (there was a reason he used to defend at fullback for Paul Green in the QLD Cup)

Thats not the reason he was used at fullback in 2011.

Needs a chance to prove his skills

Why else would Green use him at fullback in defence and hooker in attack then. Also, I had very high hopes for him in the nines being a game I though he would be suited to, but he failed to deliver there. He has had some chances but has faltered so far with his opportunities

Hodges throwing a no look pass from dummy half for the winger to dive over for an easy try.

I was at that game ... from memory we had about $2 million sitting on the sidelines injured

Hodges was a beast that night. He tried his absolute best to get the Broncos the win, unfortunately the Titans were just too good.

One thing I remember from that game is the Hail Mary play that McCullough and Hunt nearly pulled off.

I have 3 that are equal favorite memories.

1. Lockyer's field goal that hit both uprights.
2. Lockyer running the ball in the final play of the game in 2008, which resulted in the winning try.
3. Gillett's intercept in 2010 which won me $300.

Granville cant tackle. Full stop.

Neither can some of the guys in the first grade team judging by our last few performances.

Is that a guy pissing in the background?

That's gold.

Hmpffff

Yes... 'pissing'

 

[CaptainHook]

Not all that crazy about the team named but have accepted it and moved on to looking at the game. I hope if we jump out to an early lead we go on with the job. For example, if we are leading 16-0 we go on to win 40 - 6, not just scraping home 32-28 or something silly like that. No more clocking off and giving the opposition a sniff. I would love to see a quality 80 minute performance, the likes of which we haven't seen since the Bennett days.

 

[Super Freak]

I hope we don't win by any more than 12...

Quality drawing. Hey [MENTION=2221]Porthoz[/MENTION]. Hey.

 

[GCBRONCO]

Problem is Lockyer isn't in the side anymore, so we won't be kicking field goals anytime soon.

 

[Bucking Beads]

I don't think anyone in our team can kick a field goal

 

[Broncoman]

Enough.

Meanwhile, what are some of your favourite Titans memories?

On the back of last week, one of mine would have to be Hodges' return game in R3 2011.

Taylor demolishing them in that qualifying final in 2009 was special. Was a high quality and superb game from memory as well which made it even better. Spent the day at Burleigh and everyone was going on about how the Titans were going to steamroll us.

Hodges returning in early 2011 and scoring the try that sealed the game was a pretty good moment as well.
