WARRIORS v BRONCOS - Post game discussion *spoilers*

[mjc]

McCullough reminds me a lot of Smith.

How bout that bullet cut out pass from Wallace... he's gotta be the prime contender for the Blues number 7 spot.

 

[schmix]

How many minutes did McCullough play? Approx...

 

[mjc]

60 odd??

 

[guppy]

I think it's worth mentioning the enthusiasm shown by the boys.

Plenty of back slaps, high fives and even the concern about 5 players showed when one of the wingers (I can't tell them apart from afar yet) went down briefly.

There's a heap of young blokes out there just having a ball right now. It's good to see.

Wallace on form has to be the front runner for a SOO jersey

 

[ethos]

Wallace is starting to glide around the field with Lockyer like ease.

As as has been said, Teo had his best game by far.

Really impressed with McGuire and Taylor as well, they held the fort brilliantly when they were the only two props on the field during the middle part of the game.

 

[mjc]

Sims didn't let us down either, some good runs and ball security was strong.

Clinton is running hard every hit-up.

Two of our let downs from last year, good to see they're putting in the hard yards.

I think it's worth mentioning the enthusiasm shown by the boys.

Plenty of back slaps, high fives

This is definitely good to see, there is a good air about the players at the moment.

 

[Coxy]

Look at my face....says it all!

Awesome win.

 

[Charmamba]

who got man of the match? its not on nrl.com yet and didnt see itmentioned on FS

 

[Aeetee]

No idea... saw they interviewed Locky butu I thought that was just a general chit chat.

 

[Charmamba]

yeh they interview locky and clinton. hard to say who shoulda got it. my vote goes to wallace again

 

[Foordy]

my thoughts:

- Wallace was brilliant again tonight, the way he is playing is allowing Lockyer to roam and choose his moments, meaning he doesn't have to do all the work, making him (and the Broncos) more dangerous. If Wallace keeps this form up he will be a shoe-in for the NSW halfback spot.

- Taylor and Clinton have gone up a level from last year and have really improved. Taylors pass for Folau was sensational

- Te'o had his best game of the season, running good angles and hitting hard.

- Thaiday continued his good form making 35 tackles and around 100m

- Winterstein was great tonight, he should keep his spot when Hodges comes back next week.

 

[Bucking Beads]

ANy news on the Lockyer injury?? Poor Tate I really feel for him he has had nothing but bad luck. Great win by the boys tonight hopefully they can keep it up next week against the dragons.

 

[Kaz]

Locky said there is nothing to worry about, they were just thinking of next weeks game.

 

[Assassin]

I'm so dirty I missed this game, this win means so much for me cause I've had the warriors down in my head at least as being likely premiers for this season so to beat them in NZ while they are in good form is very impressive, add to that the fact we just beat the storm and revamped cowboys and this season is already looking up!

Poor tate, he has had a really bad run of injuries luckilly for QLD we are well stocked in outside backs, may even open a slot for someone like Michaels to come in on the wing... ???

Warriors 10 Tries
Simon Mannering 57m
Ukuma Ta'ai 70m

Broncos 26 Tries
Joel Clinton 12m
Steve Michaels 15m
Israel Folau 37m (Go Folau! A try a game so far...)
Alex Glenn 44m
Darren Lockyer 54m

 

[tryhard]

He got hit in the knee by grub whinger Price and wants to be okay for the Saints.
How did Henjak leave us without any subs? Not smart imo.
Refs were crap, our boys were brilliant all round the paddock. Hunt is a born leader and is the team man out there. Man I just hope to hell he stays. Always gives 100%.
Poor ol Tatie. Do feel for him.

 

[Alec]

Ouch about Tate too. Best rep centre in the world IMO. QLD will miss him (unless we were going to play him on the wing or something).
