PRE-GAME Round 7 - Broncos vs Titans

[Dexter]

Can't wait to see this guy get his chance.

The squad overall is just so unbalanced though. How the **** are we going to keep all these guys as they improve.
In 3 years time we will be in the same position of losing guys just as they are truly ready for NRL and having to bring young guys in.

I will throw my jersey's out if Boyd gets picked and Issako gets dropped. Even more so if that happens and Milf stays ahead of Deardon.

I doubt Isaako gets dropped. We don't have anywhere near enough players available to cover a new wing and it sounds like Oates is moving to the forwards

Chris Garry would've been at training today. Petey B is playing off the back of his tweet and trying to create a headline

I agree Isaako has done nothing wrong. In fact he has been one of the few players that I can’t really fault. It’s just about getting the best players on the field. Isaako on the wing is fine, he’s had a few games to prove he’s a fullback and he showed he’s a Josh Hoffman kind of fullback. Back on the wing ya go. Niu looks hungry and dangerous, though he could certainly fail too.

Though I agree, if Isaako is dropped from a full strength team before Boyd is, it’ll be a total outrage.

Agree with you. Isaako is also our 1st string goal kicker, he finishes well as a winger. It's only his defensive reads which need work, and he's not much under the high kicks. He's certainly better than Oates the way he has been playing on the wing, and having him on the wing gives a genuine future star like Farnworth a go in the centres where he belongs.

 

[Scorchie]

Cannot believe they won’t be dropping some players and instead will just move Isaako. Wow.

 

[Great white hope]

All for Nee-you to get a crack at fullback. He looked so pumped to be out there during our beltings. Looks like he doesn’t mind a bit of hard work, and I think Oates time on the wing is over.

when Staggs is back:

1. Niu
2. Isaako
3. Farnworth
4. Staggs
5. Coates

Oates on the bench.

Love the energy Niu brings. Needs to support every play. Something Isaako isnt doing. The great FBs all do it knowing that nothing happens 90% of the time but they are there when something happens. All our wingers need to hold their width and trust the inside defenders. If we still leak points it will force our edges to improve both defensive structure and communication.

Yeah it’s crazy watching how close the ruck Ponga always is. He stands next to Macca in every ptb that doesn’t involve in a set play.

Deardon was pretty good in support last year in the games he played was always following the ball

 

[Sproj]

Niu is going to blow minds at fullback, he’s something special. As mentioned though, if Boyd is picked but Isaako dropped entirely (I don’t believe it will happen as Garry is a far better source), I’ll be just as angry as the next bloke.

What is stopping Isaako or Oates playing center?

We have a better option in Farnworth assuming Boyd plays

 

[Brocko]

I have also been selected to buy tickets for the game this weekend. Providing they aren't a ridiculous price that is.

As bad as we have been I am keen for live footy. On a bloody Saturday no less.

i want to see those that are going hurling mass amounts of abuse at the 'ref' and shoot a rocket up the touch judges asses too!

I don't want Boyd playing which is why I'm asking.

I guess with Arthars and Staggs out, we are stuck with Boyd, unless Boyd makes way for Isaako (not Oates) which means Oates to wing I guess, or even Boyd to wing, which I don't think is a good idea.

Now Boyd to wing would be interesting. We would then have both the fastest and slowest winger in the comp!

 

[NSW stables]

You might be right, but I'd still keep making noise and presenting evidence. Eventually something will have to give.

You are right, how many times did ricky stuart crack the shits about a decision, and now the raiders seem to get a fair rub of the green most matches. Same with toovey and manly.

I am not saying it will help but i rather see that than us bend over and take it without complaint.
