The bookies should probably open up a market on Brisbane 50+ and chuck a 5 dollar price on it. That'll get the punters moving.

I would normal say this is a trap game, but the Broncos just never seem to drop in enthusiasm like the other top teams.

Tigers need quick play the ball to make things happen but the Broncos are the best wrestling team in the comp this year, only hope for tigers is offloads and spreading the ball and hopefully getting quick play the balls off the 1 on 1 tackles

Mate, our boys often concede decent yards in the middle of the field against most teams and don't get off the line too quick, which would suggest that slowing the PTB isn't one of their strong points. That area is made up for with effective line defence and a good sliding formation. They also scramble pretty well too. The Melbourne game was a pretty good example of all the above.

I do recall seeing a stat that we somewhere around the worst for conceding fast play the balls. Best wrestlers we are not.

Tigers to look good early but fold under the weight of a bullshit penalty count and be beaten by about 28 is my guess.

They could probably field both the Balmain and Magpies squads and not win on Sunday :lol:

What dugs are you on man? Balmain and Wests haven't had separate squads since 1999. Worst attempt at a creative way to say a team is shit ever.

To be honest I'm not really worried about getting flogged here. I don't feel like the Broncos are going to thrash us. Post origin adrenaline dump, complacency and a James Tedesco 300 metre performance incoming. Still think we'll lose though hahaha.

Tbh I was going to go to the game, I live in Brisbane, but the hopeless season and the shitty weather made me not turn up. Don't get too many chances to see the Tigers but I couldn't justify the expense and sending my daughter out into the cold to witness what's likely to be a disappointment.

Thanks Tigers.

do we get 4 points for beating 2 clubs at the same time?

Holy shit that's the funniest and most original thing I've ever heard. That isn't the 727363739th joke like that in the past 16 years at all. Well done champ, you must really be the life of the party.

Thanks Tigers.

My kids would be right up me if I did that. 95% of that is because I always take them to Milton Macca's before the game. Food is about 3000% better than in the stadium.

Taupau to have another diamonds game here, Tedesco will probably score a double.

Whenever anyone expects a walkover it never happens.

Thanks mate, if you're a good little boy I might drop it again later in the game and make it 727363740 for you.

Just the kind of guy I am

Yeah she's only 4 so she's not QUITE to the point where she is capable of making a fuss about stuff like that. She did pout and moan though she got over it pretty fast.
