'10 | R21 | Sun | Broncos 10-6 Dragons | Suncorp

[DragonPunk]

Yeah, it's the 4pm game on Sunday.

 

[renouf]

I hate to sound cynical, but this is exactly the sort of game Brisbane have lost in previous seasons.
ie:
- Big game
- Sunday arvo at suncorp with a huge crowd
- Playing against a good team

C'mon Broncos, do it for Cyril.

Broncos by 6

We'll fire up after letting the Chooks off the hook.

 

[Jason Maher]

Let the Roosters off the hook? Interesting interpretation of events.

I think we'll win, but not by much. I'll take the 2 points any way we can get it after last week.

 

[Ulysseus]

Saints front row looks a bit light on, Prior needs more beef to be a bookend, I am sorry but it has just looked that way when he is in there, he needs a good off season on the D-Bol and in the gym, since Weyman has been out they have not looked like bending the advantage line back.

I also have to ask exactly what the hell Kyle Stanley did to get dropped, he is attacking better than Gasnier, is tackling better than Gasnier and has a decent set of hands.
Stanley should be the reserve and Gasnier should be getting into shape playing with Shellharbor.

 

[thommo4pm]

Dean Young is out.

Re-shuffle for Saints.
Gasnier starting.

Pack now:
Merrin
Priddis
Smith
Costigan
Creagh
Scott

Int:
Green
Emmett
Prior
Saffy

Priddis must be playing 80mins today. Unless Emmett goes into half, but I can't see that happening.

 

[Ulysseus]

Why the f**k is Young out?
I think they might be boned here, need more KG's in the front row and J.Smith to start earning his pay packet.

 

[Dr Crane]

the broncos look like the storm.

 

[ironhorse]

I can see why the dragons are accused of being boring , they got nothing to offer the viewer .

 

[WarriorsFan4Life]

The Dragons have run out of puff.

 

[aussies1st]

I can see why the dragons are accused of being boring , they got nothing to offer the viewer .

Maybe that is the trick to getting more Channel 9 games.

 

[BDR]

Shaping up to be a great game, first game of footy i've watched properly in ages

 

[ironhorse]

Darius boyd throwing forwards again FFS he cant throw it backwards .

 

[Penance]

This is a nailbiter

 

[BDR]

did they just boo henjak? what's the go there?

 

[ironhorse]

Folau in for his second !
Hornby running to block as always ,should be sent off

10 - 0 , 7 mins to go .

 

[Ulysseus]

Pretty piss poor attacking effort from Saints here, I don't think Saints can reel it in this late.
