Good to see fein back he'll add a bit more spark which is whats needed,but i'll be very surprised if cooper does not play or else price surely would have gone with green.I have to feel sorry for prior,hes most of the time playing out of position & doing a good job some of his tackles are important ones at stages & then if he has not got the pace (which is understandable) of a centre he gets lambasted from pillar to post on this forum.Just on another note where the hell is chase what a waste of time hes been thus far.

Prior at centre. FFS. Late cooper inclusion would be outstanding.

Fien back oh yeah!!! Hopefully Green will play centre at the last minute. Hopefully we can do a Bennett on Bennett and completley change the team an hour before kickoff (Brisbane 2009)

We have 1 centre out (Cooper) for most of the early rounds and we have to have Prior in the centres...... where the bloody hell is Emmett, C.Stanley, Kemp, Green and Goodwin....if we cant field a better centre option after only 6 or 7 rounds of the comp then I hate to think whats it going to look like after 15 or 20 :roll:

I'm so sick of seeing 2nd rowers in that left centre position every time Cooper is out. Whether it's Prior, Scott or Green it's killing our strike out on the left flank. And yeah I know Green is supposed to be a specialist centre but from what I've seen of him, whilst solid, he's slow and not really creating a whole lot.

I would rather see Vidot moved into the centre position and Kemp on the wing. Our halves might be able to create something out wide if they actually have something to work with.

What's doing!?

I thought Coops was a starter this week, though if there is even a slight risk id rather him out, cant really afford to gamble losing him for weeks at a time.

The Nick... agree Vidot to centre for mine. Is Kemp injured? If not surely worth a shot guys.

Surely Price will not use Prior in the centres. Goodwin and Kemp both named in Cutters lineup. No Emmett or Chase Stanley. Green named in Toyota cup. I seem to recall that Chase has a shoulder injury and is under review. Cooper mentioned on Dragons website as returning in round eight.

Big test for Pricey now. Team selection will test friendships, but will ultimately determine his real value. I like him. Seems level headed. Time will tell.

i am hoping Price is pulling a smokey and will not actually play Prior in the centres...
then again from what i have seen so far Price isnt that smart...

Surely they can bring Goodwin into the team on the wing or fullback and move Vidot into the centres?

Don't know why price is intent on stunning our edge attack. Would've thought he would've learnt by now. We have backs specifically bought for this and he refuses to use them.

Whats doing? NOT MUCH apparently......I tell you what I'm getting sick of everybody saying how cashed up we are and still we persist in having ordinaries playing out wide.....

yep...add Gerard Beale to that list... the worst of the broncos current backline...
another poor signing...considering we have just purchased Vidot and Chase Stanley...

i guess they see Beale as a fullback option .... another bad call... he is awful under the high ball...
