09 R4 :: Fri 7:35pm AEDT:: Broncos 12 Dragons 25 @ Suncorp

[Gaba]

The pressure is on the broncos to score more then the dragons, not the dragons to score more then the broncos

Like in 2007 the dragons had one of their weaker team , the broncos flogged newcastle 71-6 the week before and was expecting to flog the dragons and could only score one try against the dragons who won 11-4

Hoping for a similar game this week, the dragons have kept broncos to 1 or 2 trys in alot of games

That may be true,but I'm not sure about our strike power out wide.Beau Scott is a back rower,and Boyd is good,but I think he is a much better fullback.He didnt have the same impact out in the centres during the 2nd half on Sunday.

Yeah agree about the strike power, but if the broncos cant break the defense , then the dragons attack has less pressure on it , its the broncos attack what will be the one under pressure to try to crack the defense


broncos havent scored more then 4 trys against the dragons since 2004 in fact they struggle to get to 3 trys, normally they are kept to 1 or 2 trys against the dragons


Lockyer , Wallace and maybe hunt is the only ones who have the creativity, the dragons have contained lockyer since 2004, reason why broncos struggled to score trys against the dragons, they shut lockyer and the halfbacks down broncos struggled, hodges is a ball runner not a passer which means he is easier to contain,

 

[Noa]

Bennet knows the Broncos' weaknesses.
I expect a similar onslaught to what happened in Origin game one with Bellamy and his attack on Storm players in the Queensland team.

Difference is though he doesnt have the cattle to excute it.

 

[Shorty]

Yep, may change my tip (omg!).
Though I prefer Hornby at fullback with Head in the halves....who knows.

 

[Mr Saab]

Yep, may change my tip (omg!).

Please...please dont. I would like to see you once again take the team playing the Broncos and once again have you obtain an incorrect pick.

 

[Shorty]

You need a life, love.

 

[Mr Saab]

You need a life, love.

And you need a .........hmmmm would be banned if i said that ;-)

 

[Shorty]

Well...if incorrect tipping equates to that, then last weekend would have had a lot of upset (or worse?) people!

 

[jondy]

I love these clashes.......Dragons the winners in the past 7 clashes.....Broncos the favourite each and every time.......sound familiar.
If the Broncos do win well all I can say is thats about f.....n time !

 

[Kiki]

the broncos are our bitch. and i love it. GO BABIES GO!

 

[kia ora storm]

Broncos by 10...

 

[Evenflow]

Broncos by 12.

 

[Gaba]

broncos average 2.5 trys in the last 7 games against dragons

dragons average 4 trys in the last 7 game against broncos


cant see a 13 + score line for either team in this game

3 games of normal 80 mins of normal time footy the dragons are undefeated

Reason why i hate the golden point , no golden point would mean this game would have been between 2 teams who are undefeated

 

[Slackboy72]

I'm going to have to say the Broncos are going to win this because they are settled while the Dragons are still gelling together.

 

[DragonPunk]

Dragons by 6, i hope.

 

[Miller was a legend]

Broncos by alot

If the broncos are serious then they are gonna have to beat their bogey side. They have beaten us 7 in a row so our chances of winning will be very difficult. We've only beaten them once at Suncorp.

Should be a very close game.

 

[_Johnsy]

If the Broncs cannot beat us tonight when they are full strength, we have 3 important players out and our attack would struggle to post 10 points against the Aspley reserve grade team. If they can't get the job done tonight they are pretenders.
