'12 | R25 | Fri | Sea Eagles 16-6 Broncos | Brookvale

King, Buhrer and Ballin named with no extended bench. That's a good sign. No doubt blokes like Robinson and Foran will be on standby though while they monitor those that were injured.

Broncos by 8...

 

[effnic]

Broncos $2.85 damn good odds.

Kings being rested apparently.

[Bretto]

You said Kings being rested. So I asked how many Kings are being rested.

broncos may have lost but their two previous games theyve put in a lot of effort. but for an iffy try to melbourne, the result would have been different. i think theyre pretty hungry for a win going into the finals.

manly may be playing with a few sore bodies (if not already on the injury list), i think this may be an upset to brisbane.

so long as their kicking game is spot on. hodges to do a lot of damage out wide.

I'll back Broncos, they are on a big losing streak, slightly underestimated and they have looked really close in the past two weeks.

Manly by 16

This will be ugly. Just hoping the Tigers and the Raiders lose.

This season is shaping up like 2007 when Brisbane slumped at the back end of the year and should have missed the 8, but as the other "contenders" for the 8 failed to take adv then Broncos limped in.
LOL @ the tigers losing to the knights when they led by like 14 and would have made the 8 if they won

 

[jarro]

We can win this with Glenn and McGuire back.

Wouldn't it be nice to spank the seagulls on their home (cow) paddock

I know I say this almost every game.

But, not confident.

I know I say this almost every game.

But, not confident.

with good reason...last week was a blow out and somewhat of an outlier. theyll be facing a team performing but only just missing out on results.

reminds me of how the sharks tore up the warriors then were defeated handily the next week.

sometimes its good to get big wins..other times its more valuable to be conditioned to tighter games.

(manly will still play well..theyre a quality side, but it should be an interesting game)

 

[Gmac]

Not confident at all. I've said all year Brisbane are in with a massive chance at the title and I still think this is the case. If we play them in a Semi I think we can just get them ( with our full compliment on the paddock) But with injuries and a tough few weeks im not liking our chances this week. Brisbane seem to be treating this week as there grand final. We need to be up for a massive one.
If we have to loose ( resting our injured guys before the semis ) then i guess you take it.
But a win ( and good one at that) could really catapult our run into the semis. Tough call.
