Feeling more confident in us getting up if the late mail is good.

They've got us in the halves and front row, but I'd rate our back line and second row (Tate over Reed though). Our bench looks better too.

Of course, if we don't do a number on Thurston, then all bets are off....

Confirmation that Tariq Sims and Ray Thompson are out.

Lui starts at halfback, with Bolton coming off the bench for Tariq and Lowe coming onto the bench.

Conservative Hook strikes again.

Re: Round 9 - Cowboys s Broncos - LIVE Discussion

Brisbane are going to need all the help they can get against the big boppers, unsure if Lowrie is the right man for that job though.

Hannant is the man for that job.

What? He's a one man wrecking crew, a veritable engine of destruction.

The Cowgirls shall shake in trepidation at the coming of The Todd.

Why the hell would Hook replace Granville with Lowrie ????

 

[Big Pete]

Re: Round 9 - Cowboys s Broncos - LIVE Discussion

Hannant was never going to come back into the team. He shouldn't have been dropped in the first place but Hook already made his bed on that one and so anything less than a win tonight will really put him under a ton of pressure.

Lowrie is the eternal 18th man. He's a reliable option who can be called into the side and can do a reasonable job. With Hala & Oates there as impact and Wallace still developing it's the logical choice.

I feel for Granville though, but with Macca really coming into his own as an 80 minute player there really isn't a whole lot of room for him in the team.
