2016 Wk 2 Semi - Cowboys 26-20* Broncos @ 1300SMILES

Ponga selection is crazy, good for the kid's future but I'd be shitting myself if I was a Cow's supporter.

Whats that son, can't swim ?? (throws in deep end) There you go.

Agreed. Especially considering they had Moga to choose from as well.

 

[Shorty]

Moga has been previously injured and a liability, we had to go with Ponga.

 

[Shorty]

Btw I obviously hate the Broncos...but after what happened to Ethan...and what is being said about his injury, I'm REALLY not impressed with the Storm.
I'm not sure who I'd go for in a GF anymore.

Explain yourself

 

[Shorty]

It's supposedly a spinal cord injury.
I definitely saw some cringe worthy tackles last Saturday night.
Everyone does it, some better than others, I wish any sort of manipulation of joints and muscles was outlawed.

Explain yourself

There's talk that his career might be over.

Agreed. Especially considering they had Moga to choose from as well.

Moga is coming back from his third knee reco, he was poor when he played earlier this year and when I've seen him in the QLD cup he wasn't doing much.

No team has won outside the top four

This is incorrect. The Bulldogs won from 6th in 1995 and Brisbane won from 5th in 1993. On both occasions the teams had to win four games against teams who finished higher on the ladder (except the Dogs as 6th played 7th in the first week). Whoever says no team has won outside the top 4 is only talking about the NRL era.

There is no doubt it will happen again one day.

Sooner than you think. Brisbane and Penrith are a great chance

I think that it is reference to our current system, where top 4 gets two goes, which was only changed over a little while ago.
This is the same system that's in the AFL and they haven't ever had a winner from outside the top 4 either.

Hoping the Cowboys win ... I think they can .. if they can do two things ... both easier said than done:

1) Control Adam Blair. This prick has been bashing through defences the last few week. Scott really need shut this f**ker down.

2) control Anfony Milf. Give him No space. Don't let him breath.

If they can do that, and match yardage and completions, Thurston's kicking game will win for the cowboys. The Broncs halves, whatever their merits, have the worst kicking game out of any team in the comp.

f**k that bad huh?

your avatar's creepy

Really...I think it's cute.

It usually blinks about every 10-15 seconds.But the site won't allow that function for gifs.

I don't know the ins and outs, but gifs can work. Have a look at carcharias' avatar. He has ennis clapping at the raiders supporters.

 

[lockyno1]

Maybe I'm already hammered but I recon we are a good chance

 

[Mr Saab]

Brisbane got this

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Milford to have the best game of his career tonight

As long as it's an entertaining match without a refereeing blooper...may the best team win.

It's to do with my add-ons such as No-Script and Better Privacy.They block most stuff on LU that can be privately intrusive.Same bloated stuff you will find on the NRL and NSWRL sites.

 

[Maroon4life]

I'll put myself out there and say the Broncos will win.

It's the sort of game Bennett just wins.

Admittedly the injuries to the cowboys help.

 

[Hawkins]

I'm going to the movies tonight no spoilers after Brisbane kill em please.
