This is so lame... if we were any good at all this rubbish we'd be dominating possession... also we're clearly garbage at hiding it from the refs given we're the most penalised team in the comp.

Ritchie just doing some aura farming with the Sydney crowd... his approval rating must be dropping.

Ineffective tackling technique leads to the grubby stuff .
But every one of those tactics are also employed by other NRL teams .So ???
 
How is this possible?

Madge's fault. Every time the Broncos do something good, it flies in the face of the NSWRL journo's who have been death-riding us and claiming we're about to self-destruct. Which in turn erodes their credibility.

Madge, the selfish prick, needs to start training us to fail, that way these poor starving journos can feed themselves and their families.
 
NRL Physio said on his podcast that Staggs is going to be week to week.

He could play with the injury, but he could also need a couple of weeks off. The problem with the type of injury he has is the pain. It's a very painful injury.

Guess it comes down to, is Staggs at say 80% better than the other options at 100%? Absolutely he is.

Just on what was said on the podcast, he also said it's possible for Reece to return this week.

He would need the surgeon to sign off on it, but it's not out of the realm of possibility and even stated other cases where players have returned so quickly after surgery. Reece's case is probably a little different because his surgery was more significant, but didn't rule it out. He thinks it's more likely to be Round 9-10 though.

Haas out for up to 8 weeks.

Staggs & Arthurs yet be determined as to how long they would be out for.

Jensen in hospital.

So we're now missing (or potentially missing) an entire NRL grade run-on team?

Walshy, Haas, BHunt, Carrigan, Jenson, Staggs, Paix, Arthars, Walters, Mozer, Anderson, Aublix, Hoeter (and the NFL crap with Te Kura).

Paix will obviously be back this week, Staggs and Arthars might play but I'd prefer anyone over Arthars at the back after that disaster of a performance under the high ball with burton kicking this week.

This is quickly approaching the worst injury list I can recall. Definitely the worst in sheer $$ off the park.
 
Ok so updated injury list:

Confirmed
Haas
Jensen
Bunt
Hoeter
Ganderson
Te Kura
Walters
Mozer
Carrigan
Tawha

Probable
Walsh
Staggs
Arthars

Possible
Paix
HGiki

I don't think we have enough players to drop Gibasaki.

1. Perham (Walsh if fit of course)
2. Karapani
3. Mariner
4. Shibasaki
5. Verhoeven
6. Mam
7. Reynolds
8. Talty
9. Paix
10. Junt
11. Piakura
12. HGiki (Gosiewski)
13. Willison

14. Bukowski
15. Semu
16. Gosiewski (I thought he was pretty handy in the middle to be honest) (Piki)
17. Rogers
18. Duffy
19. Poates

Honestly, if HG is out, I have no idea who would we name on the bench for him, I've just gone with Piki because he was good in the trial but I think he doesn't qualify yet as a T&T dude.

Could we apply for an exemption to play Francis?
 
Ok Broncoshq it's time to put your hand up. Your club needs you in it's hour of need. I'll put my hand up as a frontrower as I figure I couldn't do any worse then Fletcher Baker I'm sure I could make it more then one metre out of our ingoal from kick off on a return.
