Just one length of field off the kick off.

Joe Kilroy style?

Yes. Even buck won’t be spared.

 

[GCBRONCO]

Yes. Even buck won’t be spared.

I already put him out of his misery, enough the fans suffer.

 

[Dazza 92]

Yeah ... no he isn't. He is rated because he deserves to be.

...2 touches of the footy in the 2nd half last week.....

He isnt the guy you look to for effort plays, like ever...

 

[Dazza 92]

The real answer will show in their performance.

so we are fucked then....

We havent hit bottom....there is no bottom when the entire joint is in free fall....

 

[Twbapony]

anyone seeing a potential player swap with Moses here...??

Broncos star Kotoni Staggs a "big chance" to join Parramatta

Has a new frontrunner emerged for the 22-year-old?

Who cares, they can have his toe sucking to go with "unnamed player" in the portaloo out back. The guy might be great, but his brains obviously stay on the training field at the end of the day.

 

[Dazza 92]

well....looks like hes next off the sinking ship...we should be looking to get something back if indeed he goes to Parramatta...

We need a halfback....fucking desperately...to the point id take almost anyone...

or id take Nathan Brown, prop/2nd row/lock type....

But we need a spine....priority with what money we have available must be for that...

Thats why i suggested Moses...

Pretty sure it's that chair Kev threw the jersey on after last week's game.

I'm gobsmacked at this talk in the media that we are worse than last year. Where has this come from? There was lack of hunger, desire and fight last year with most of the squad giving up. This is nowhere near the case with Kevvie's 2021 version. There is a noticeable difference in the attitude and effort.
We have just come off the hardest four game stretch any team has played this year against the 4 heavyweights. We competed hard and arguably were the better team for one of those being the home match against the Penrith juggernaut. Our other matches:

• Rd 1 v Parra (lost by 8)
• Rd 2 v Titans (lost by 12)
• Rd 3 v Bulldogs (won by 24)

We are prone to a 10-15 min lapse in concentration where we are conceding 3-4 tries in that period which is essentially ending the game as a contest. It happened against Titans, Melbourne and Parra towards the end of the first half when it was close and back and forth. We were also missing Haas and Lodge in those early losses.
We are not as bad as what is made out. Sure we all want to win, but there are other fringe top 8 teams that would only have 1 win from our draw as well...

Looking ahead to round 8 this Friday, we are a huge chance and will keep the game competitive. I am not convinced by the halves play of the Titans and they have struggled for consistency in attack outside of Dave Fifita running over people. This is not sustainable. Given we conceded 5 tries on this edge last week, there will be a definite focus here and I think we'll see huge improvement.
Tino missing is a big out and our forward pack can match and outmuscle theirs. This should hopefully allow Milford to play off the back of that and if he wants to be here next year, then will have a point to prove.
We have saved our best performances for Suncorp, as it should be. I expect another one come Friday.

Gamble is a great talker, I was impressed by him against Souths. His passing for Piakura was great too. Hopefully he can help us attack a bit on the edge.

I hope for his sake, and ours, he kills it.

You’d also expect he has a strong drive and determination, given he’s been hovering in and around first grade for some time without being able to ever crack it properly.

Hopefully his determined attitude rubs off on some of the players in our squad who have been on cruise control.

100% TPJ gets suspended this week.
He’s been far too clean. Coming up against the NRL’s golden team and the greatest ever poaching raid from any club in history David Fifita.
If it’s anything under 4wks I’ll be shocked.
