Bit of rain in the morning but currently sunny and clear

Hopefully a good night of footy ahead

Yes I don't think anyone feels we are a legit chance this year but I also don't think we will bottom out like 2016 although with a couple more injuries it is possible.

More like 2021 where they will beat the shit teams but get nowhere close to the good teams. Depending on how many teams make the latter category will determine if we make the 8.

2026 they will have a much better shot.

In regards to your mob, I'm firmly in the camp of needing to see it to believe it. The popular train of thought is that a bounce back to 2023 is a certainty purely because they have a new coach but as you say these things are never so straight forward so we will see.
IMO *if* you have a day like us and lose Tedesco and Collins long term you're in a hole as big as us

If those 2 stay fit you'll be OK

Shoutout to Alfred who has postponed his reign of terror to allow the Brisbane fans to tune in.

On ya Alf, you're a good bloke.

Hoping for the seafaring centre to score a try for my ATS multi.

Nice to have rugba league back and nice to be back here.

I mean on paper this could easily be a cripple fight, round one with shit weather...Brisbane have the pack and the halves but also one of them is Ben Hunt and one of them is made out of damp paper mache and WTF I thought Gehamat Shibasaki was working at an Ampol somewhere.

Interested to see how Mark Nawaq goes in the centre , the most difficult position to defend in Rugby League. The Broncos will be going there all night. He looks like a great ball runner though. Glides across the turf.

Kevvie did not enjoy Madge's interview there.

Furiously writing on his paper afterwards.
