Please play Ben Hunt Ivan, don't screw around with the team.

We need as few changes as possible.

So, Dave Taylor to Halfback, Hunt to 5/8ths, Lockyer to fullback. Drop Hodges. Replace him with Michaels. And switch the wingers left to right just for fun.

 

[renouf]

Last time Wallace didn't play we were thumped 56-0.. then again hes been part of some thumpings too when Lockyer was on the sidelines.

With only Lockyer there we will become one dimensional.. whether that's enough to beat the storm, i doubt it

 

[Charmamba]

Dont play B.Hunt leave him in the u20's

What about Marsh?

im gonna call it now thou

7. McCullough
9. Glenn

Ben hunt - if you're good enough you're old enough. He's got enough class to go put there and do the job

Why has Clinton been playing less that 20mins since returning from injury? I can't work it out.. We need him playing 40+ like he was before his injury because he was going so well. I think he played about 10 mins last night.

10 mins? shit I thought he played a bit more than that. Last night I assumed he was kept fresh for the 2nd half (Fair enough IMO considering how hard we were smashing them in the 1st) but thought he played more than that for sure [icon_confu Lets hope he picks up his stamina soon, we need him out there for longer.

According to NRL Stats he played 11 minutes.

I don't think it has anything to do with his stamina either.

Match fitness perhaps?

Here is a useless stat someone at Saturdays game told me...

every time the Broncos have made the prelim final (week 3) they have won the premiership. eusa_think

but i also saw on the footy Show (or Sunday Roast) this week that the Storm have made 4 prelim finals and have made the GF from all 4 eusa_think

so to sum up

Broncos 6 Preliminary finals for 6 premierships

vrs

Storm 4 Preliminary finals for 4 Grand Finals

eusa_think

this will be a cracker of a game

 

[Black Philip]

Something I think we will really miss from Wallace are his quick passes inside to Hunt running into gaps. They really seem to help us build momentum in attack. Man it sucks that he is out :( Could be worse though, could be Lockyer.

Didn't we get to the prelim final last year then get beaten by Melbourne.... eusa_think

no semi final ... the prelims are in week 3 we only made week 2 last year

Really?
I thought it was third week and then Melbourne went on to the grand final eusa_think
I'm already losing my memory [icon_razz1

Hopefully that stat becomes 7/7 :D

yeah if you remember Cam Smith got a 2 week suspension for his tackle on Thaiday (which the Storm are still whineing abotu [icon_lol1. ) the winner of Broncos/Storm would have played the Sharks for a GF spot

Ah that's right! Cam smith played against us and got suspended for that tackle.. he's worth 40 points if you ask Melbourne fans [icon_lol1.
