[God-King Dean]

Broncos by 24.

 

[Dogaholic]

God help us

 

[DragonPunk]

I think Folkes may call Barba up for this one but Broncos to win easily.

 

[Timmah]

Dumbest decision ever if they promote Barba. To put a kid on debut against Lockyer is asking for trouble.

 

[renouf]

Ch9 sure do pick some dooseys... I can just hear Andrew Voss calling the game like its the clash of the century

 

[Timmah]

To be fair neither team played badly the whole game last night - if the Bulldogs play on Sunday like they did in the second half last night they'll do well to keep up with them.

 

[Sleep]

This game will be all over by the end of the Broncos first set of six (They'll score off the Bulldogs first possession when Roberts kicks a grubber off his own goal line).

But seriously, the Broncos by as many as they like. At least thirty.

 

[Timmah]

I hope the ref calls fulltime after forty minutes tbh.

 

[Dutchy]

Could get ugly

 

[salivor]

We're not really going to get an easier 2 points this year and that really makes me nervous, these are the types of games we tend to blow. Hopefully with Wallace and Lockyer returning we'll be pumped for this one.

 

[renouf]

I don't see this being a flogging, unless the bulldogs turn in a really bad performance Brisbane will just go through the motions

 

[8Ball]

Close tussle early on, with the broncos running away with it in the end. 34-12

 

[Hutty1986]

Expecting instant miracles when wallace and Lockyer come back is a bit ambitious, but I think Brisbane will still surely be far too tough at home here. Broncos 38-16

 

[JW]

Us by a couple. These are the games I worry about.

 

[African Monkey]

Broncos by 46.

 

[Billigan]

this game will either be a really close game or the broncos will thrash the bulldogs.

broncos 40-12

 

[Rogue.9]

Brisbane by less than 10

 

[C.P]

Cant really see the Dogs winning this one can only hope the side that played last week turns up and makes a game of it, if the team that turned out against the Raiders a few weeks ago makes an appearance the NRL may have to invoke a mercy rule....

 

[0neye]

Doggies will bite back today by 20 +_=
