And the Riki brothers were only just reunited!

Geez, it's nice having some reliable depth in the forwards. Piki was really good, Semu did not look out of place at all, Gos did a good job, Talts is Talts, Hunt was also there....

I said this last week and the week before but I am strangely least confident about this one.

Yes we get walsh and carrigan back but with piakura and piki out our forwards are gonna have to put in ANOTHER huge shift.

The bench will be even more light on.

Seriously, **** the nrl with that piki suspension. Why are our players the ones the "letter of the law". Carrigan and piki deserved what they got IF there weren't about 300 examples of Sydney based players getting off this year. I mean look at the judiciary panel.

It’s weird but the Piakura out worries me the most. Feels like one bridge too far. It’s the one position where we have no depth and can’t seem to land the next man up.

Ah well, broncos by 50
 
Anyone outside the 4 walls of the Broncos that is whinging about Madge?

Have a look at what happens when you get a bunch of blokes together that are willing to work their d!cks off for each other?!

This. You get this Broncos team!
Well done Madge 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
 
Jesus Christ, won’t be able to name a squad at this rate. Who goes to second row, Hunt or Gos?

Nice try. Next you'll tell me Corey Oates and Xavier Coates aren't related...

Looks like Verhoeven(ankle) and Bukowski(possible shoulder) join the injury list.

At this stage we're probably going to have to forfeit games during the Origin period...

Probably his dog Rufus since he’s at the club all the time
 
So at the minute:

Walsh (this week?)
Carrigan (this week)
Tawha (Next week)
P Riki (Next week)
Hunt (Rd 11 - Rd 13)
Te Kura (Rd 12)
Mozer (Rd 13)
Haas (Rd 14)
Hoeter (Rd 15)
Anderson (Rd 16)

Arthars (tbc)
Piakura (tbc)
Verhoeven (tbc)
Bukowski (tbc)

Walters (indefinite)
Jensen (indefinite)

1. Walsh
2. Mariner
3. Staggs
4. Shibasaki
5. Karapani
6. Mam
7. Reynolds
8. Willison
9. Paix
10. Talty
11. Gosiewski
12. Riki
13. Carrigan
14. Rogers
15. J. Hunt
16. Semu
17. Coric
18. Arthars (/Coates)
19. Duffy

Gos aside, the 13 is strong. Rogers has been strong, Arthars and Duffy are our 1st choice 18 and 19 anyway. just the middle/edge rotation. Shibasaki and Bryce may come into calculations but I think Coric has been in great form and that bit more experienced at cup level to make the jump then the other 2 would do and they would also be on an edge whilst he'd be in the middle. J Hunt can cover edge minutes under this scenario as I doubt Gos would go 80 and Semu and Coric can cover the minutes through the middle that would need to be covered.
