I was joking but man he is impressive.

 

[abashii]

Just like Turbo is about ready to return soon too - probably against us lol.

The NRL decided Milford can be registered and train with the Knights too but he's not allowed to play until the Knights come up against us.

Not getting my hopes up but There’s no reason on current form, why we can’t be 6th on the ladder.

 

[Big Del]

I have faith in Matt Ballen

What about Steve Walters ?

This year, more so than the last couple, is all about turning up with the right attitude.

Quality of the competition has evened back out... excluding storm and panthers who are a million miles ahead of the rest... so we should be a chance every week as long as we turn up with the right attitude and also not reffed out of the game straight away.

If we're allowed to play by the officials and turn up with the right attitude we can mix it with most teams this year.

If we had beaten the Roosters, we would be.

 

[BroncsFan]

If we had beaten the Roosters, we would be.

If the ref hadn't intervened so much we would've beat the rorters.

We might've also had a chance to beat the warriors had the ref not had a hard on for deep throating his whistle every time Flegler was involved in a play.

 

[winslow_wong]

If we had beaten the Roosters, we would be.

I just hope Origin doesn’t halt our momentum. We could be on a good run with the games we have coming up.

Who do we play in the origin affected games?

 

[BroncsFan]

I just hope Origin doesn’t halt our momentum. We could be on a good run with the games we have coming up.

We have the bye for round 13 so origin 1 and 2 shouldn't be disruptive from a losing players perspective... we then have dragons in round 17.

They'll be without Bhunt (you'd think) at minimum... Molo, Lomax and Tariq might be smokies... although Latrell will be back by then, so Staggs and Lomax might be out of contention at that point.

 

[winslow_wong]

Who do we play in the origin affected games?

Melbourne lol. Hopefully they’ll have all their stars out.

Don't think so.

Origin 2 is standalone (I believe) so no one should be missing the storm game, it does mean storm will be full strength going into it (i.e. no resting players after origin)... we play cows after origin 2 though. Some truly brilliant scheduling by NRL there, let's put one of the biggest rivalries in the comp smack bang in the middle of origin.

After origin 1 we have Canberra at home... that could be our most impacted origin with Staggs a chance before Latrell is back, on top of Haas and Capewell as a minimum. Carrigan may be a smokie, but won't have many games under his belt by that point.

After origin 3 we have titans away... another scheduling master piece... two games against our rivals around the origin period... what a fucking useless Shitney centric administration this is

**** No he would be in the high 70’s low 80’s he is a tall boy by the looks of things and isn’t a complete stick. Still has some muscle to him.

So here's an interesting factoid, for you.

Turpin was a breath of fresh air when he burst onto the scene to replace Macca. Then Macca took him under his wing, they became best mates and he became the next Macca.

Paix is a breath of fresh air bursting onto the scene to replace Jake. Turpin has taken Paix under his wing, and they're best mates now.

The only reason anyone got excited about Turpin was the fact that his name wasn't Andrew McCullough. He was just as shit before he became friends with McCullough.

True enough......

Turpin and Gamble are similar. Plenty of effort, but just so little actual football talent.

One of them is entertaining as **** to watch though. The other just makes ineffective legs tackles that get quick play the balls for the opposition.
