PRE-GAME Round 8 - Rabbitohs vs Broncos

[Wolfie]

doesn't ring a bell

This fella

 

[Jedhead]

You know, the greatest coach in history.

Nobody at the Broncos by that name.

 

[Jedhead]

What other guys?

Hunt? Kniko? Inglis? Taylor?

Obviously other, other guys.

 

[theshed]

Obviously other, other guys.

I mean Lodge literally walked through walls to play for us but I’m not sure that was his motivation.

 

[Sproj]

Nobody at the Broncos by that name.

Martha?

"I wanted to stick it out up here. I wanted to give back to the Broncos."

To me that doesn't sound like something you'd say if you were planning on re-signing with the Broncos. I'd say he'll be back in Sydney within a couple of years.

Maybe I'm wrong.

He’s still got the best part of 3 years on his contract. Hopefully we’re starting to peak around then.

Anyone doing the try scorer bets, I would put money on Corey Oates.

11 tries in 7 games. Has scored in every game since Round 25, 2015.

 

[Alec]

Oates seems like a good choice, we should definitely be targeting their right side.

Wouldn’t be paying that much.

 

[Huge]

He was first choice last week paying $7 for first try scorer...and saluted.

Ah yes. First try scorer always pays well but anytime try scorer Oates is always around the 1.80 mark

 

[Huge]

Saw it, wanted it, passed it up...

Sam same. Took Roberts instead for better value but I remember thinking 7 bucks was good value. Thought, what a dickhead to myself later on.

Four ISC games, defence has been good, attack not enough initiative shown, hasn't done enough kicking. Keep the defence up and not be so passive in attack. I've just found he sits too much on the left and stays there.

That's my report card. The higher you go the easier it is because the rest of the guys do their job so I am hoping his lack of attack was due to Wynnum.

Normally with a young half you'd be saying gee he defends like me but attacks like Wally- so he's interesting.

Well a lot of posters on here seem to rate halves based on defence, so Deardon should impress some ;)

 

[Jedhead]

What shits me in this whole affair is that Siebs has been up front with the media at all times. I mean the guy sits for nearly ten minutes at the Sharks' after game presser answering questions. The presser was just about to close when a few dickheads try to turn to the Rabbits game and begin asking puerile, pre-pubescent questions. Siebs thanks them for their time and leaves. Nic minute - Siebold storms out of press conference!

They're making a rod for their own backs and this sort of shit is susceptible to the law of diminishing returns.

I am slightly disappointed you changed your avatar especially knowing the back story. Whenever you posted in my head l was like

Yes, some of us think that a halfback who sets up three tries and let's in five isn't a good investment. We like the kind that sets up three and let's in say, less than three . That's our kind of halfback but each to their own I guess.

Mmmm, amazingly some people wondered why WB didn't dawdle and encourage the media. Perhaps he tried it Seibs way and found it wanting?

Not sure what you mean there Huge. when you say Benny didn't 'dawdle' does that mean he left abruptly too? Would this not be exactly what Siebs did?
