Brisbane by whatever they feel like on the day.

3 home games in 4 weeks against saints, tigers and Canberra is really going to give them an inside track to a top 4 spot.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

As usual the draw is stacked against us, having to play a team above us on the ladder yet again.


Raiders by as many as we want to.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Christ I hope we blow them away.

 

[wittyfan]

Another training run for the Broncos. Broncos by 24.

 

[footy75]

Raiders season to be officially put to bed.

 

[This Year?]

Expecting a couple of Raiders suspensions to come out of this one. My money would be on Rapana, Wighton or Hudson Young

 

[King-Gutho94]

Canberra haven't beaten the Broncos at Suncorp since the final round of 2010 that was the great Ivan Henjak's last game as coach at Brisbane.

Ricky's record is even worse against the Broncos at Suncorp as coach 1 win from 11 games hasn't beaten the broncos at Suncorp as coach since 2005 when at the Chooks.

Never won a coach at Cronulla, Parra or Canberra against Brisbane there.

 

[Saxon]

Raiders to be humiliated (again).

 

[Stinkfinger]

I've got a funny feeling about this game. If Raiders can avoid giving the Broncos 80% of the ball in the first quarter of the game and if they target Reynolds with a few totally legal bone rattlers, they could do some damage. Don't give the Broncos the game they want. Give them the rough house treatment. They don't like that. They'll probably still get overrun in the last 20 but better that the game's still alive with 20 to go than over with 60 to go.

Wighton already suspended so it won't be him. But I think you've got the idea of how they'll try to play this.

Yea, it's a bugger init?

IMO, this is a cautious game for the Broncos. Stickky will have a good fewer words than usual because they are hurting from last week, and they know what is required. The best way to approach this game would be to treat this match like they need this win to get into the top eight.

If they can at least keep the Broncos to a respectable score, or continue with the NRL upsets by getting them by 24-18, which is my tip, then they can move on from there.

You've had a funny feeling for the past 4 weeks, not one of them have turned out to be right.

 

[Chief_Chujo]

lol were gonna get demolished. I really don't want to watch this game.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

the neville costigan cup

[Chins get the wins]

Best Young Centre in the game returning wowee

I seriously thought he'd retired.

Tipped your mob to beat Raiders, Tigers, Dollies and Cows, didn't enter a tip in Dragons game, nor against the Riff, but I would have expected you to lose that. But you are right about one thing. I am in no way convinced the Broncos are a premiership threat. Why that should concern you, f**ked if I know.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Just when you think it can't get any worse Ricky Ricardo picks Creaking Croker.

 

[mozza91]

When you concede 50 you’ve gotta bring in a defensive dynamo like BYC!
