PRE-GAME [THE BIG DANCE] BRISBANE BRONCOS Vs PENRITH PANTHERS - 2023 NRL GRAND FINAL

[Skathen]

Faaaaaaaaaark - thought we got super lucky on Saturday... let's hope we don't blow our own chances on the training paddock ffs!

 

[Renegade]

definitely would be what to do if Herbie was out. Don't rate Arthurs in the centers. Would be tempted to go Mariner for his speed.

Think Mariner has been out for a fair while with an ankle syndesmosis... so I doubt he's healthy, but if he is he's probably not match fit anyway

yeah forgot about that, scratch that idea then.

Don't stress people, all is good

 

[Browny]

Everyone calm down, niggles are part of the game. It’s GF week so the journos are looking for drama

Herbie with 232 metres on the weekend with how many tough carries? I'm a fit bloke and my hammies would be tighter than a prawns arse 2 days after that

Fox Sports saying Kevvie is thinking about moving Flegler to the bench and starting Palasia.

If it's true, for ***** sake Kevvie, don't overthink it.

I don't mind it, I think that gives us more aggression at our first change. Palasia can weather the softening-up period, Flegs and Kobe come on after twenty to just tear in.

Slater tips the Broncos to win, and Walsh to the the Clive Churchill medal.

There's a golden rule, especially in GF week.

Don't fix what isn't broken.

 

[Super Freak]

Did they replace the CEO with the other Fletcher?

Would be surprised if it actually happens. But I've thought Flegs would be better value off the bench all year, so to me it would be fixing something that is (just a wee bit) broken...

 

[Renegade]

oh yeah i'm sure sons will get on board.

Was there any context around the quote?

Feels like a leading question to get something to write about... "Palasia has been in great form from the bench... is there any thought to starting him?"...
Kevvie: "yeah nah, but maybe..."

 

[mrslong]

No this is not funny

 

[Fitzy]

The fact that they listed off half the team with niggles is all you need to know that it’s bullshit. As if Herbie would continue training on grand final week if you have the slightest a complaint. The rest were all sweet nothings. Journo’s don’t want Bronx to win they will do everything in there power to make it look like we will be some under prepared inferior team struggling with injuries.

I LOVE that they are being so intense at training, now is not the time to go into your shell. Keep that intensity up.

They'll be fine but also, don't forget, we did beat Penrith with Cobbs at the back and regardless, I suspect we might see Selwyn back there a couple of times during the GF anyway. Our coaching staff aren't afraid to pull out something totally unexpected.
