[GongPanther]

This is going to be the funniest game of the season. Parra hammers the very weakened Dogs by 30-4.

On the flip side, Broncos to bt Parra by 30-4.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Friday night?

About f**ken time

 

[Someguy]

That’s a lot of travel for the broncos not sure how they will adapt. Parra should be favourites

 

[lockyno1]

Darwin? Why.

Biggest test of the year. Either way I’ll lose hair

 

[Bazal]

FMD another Darwin game with a team from QLD and this time a team that would draw great at Bankwest.

Why the f**k don't we take, like, Warriors Raiders Sharks Knights and the like up there? Even Storm and Souths. Maybe the heat will keep us within 24 of the bogey teams (although we've been good against Melbs recently)

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

It will be a lot closer than most will think, Broncs have looked shaky at times and the win against the Tits was unconvincing, but I can't see Parra outplaying the conditions up there.

Broncos by 4

 

[THE CHAMP]

Great to have our best 17 for only the 2nd time this season

 

[some11]

Broncos lost this game 46-6 two years ago, with the great Brodie Croft as captain.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Has someone told the space cadet Freddy.

He says on this video the Broncos smashed us 2 years ago.

Gee it explains why the NSW origin team has some questionable selections under tosspot Freddy who has NFI.

 

[This Year?]

Some great matchups:
Walsh v Gutherson
Reynolds v Moses
Flegler v RCG
Haas v Paulo

This game and thread will be a ripper!

Thats no surprise, Johns going for Souths. the sour prick,. At least his brother takes it good stride.

 

[lockscombi]

Broncos by 12 I reckon. To much attacking firepower for mine

 

[Valheru]

Probably the worst decision for choice of opponent by a Sydney team in Darwin since roosters took cowboys there and got flogged by 40.

I would back Parra to win at Bankwest

Broncos by 10

 

[Ruby Roundhouse]

Close one, can't pick. Maybe donkeys by 8.

 

[Someone2]

Eels by 8
