Hey guys, before I start talking about this thread I'd just like to introduce myself. It might be hard to believe, but I'm a die-hard absolutely obsessed broncos fan from Sydney (I know). I just joined this forum, because I can't speak to anybody about the broncos down here, it's only the eels/bulldogs/dragons.
Now back to my post. I was completely gutted last year when Ashton Sims, dropped that ball in the prelim final, not upset with him, just upset that our boys had to go out that way, especially after quite obviously being the better team on the field for the 79 minutes and 20 seconds. But last night, I think ashton had redeemed himself, I mean the passion and the emotion that he played with, was something I have never seen in him. He belted Justin Poore (rep prop) every time and didn't hold back. I know we have a real crisis in the forwards especially the props, but if all the forwards played like sims did last night, we wouldn't need to worry. I hope he continues this type of agressive play next week against the storm, god knows we will need it. The likes of Lima,Blair,Tolman, Tandy will test us to the end. Lets just hope we can exact some revenge on them for last year!
In my opinion, I think we should put Ben Hunt at 5'8 with Darren Lockyer at halfback, I know everyone has opted for gorrell/marsh/hunt/taylor etc, but I think that we shouldn't weaken other positions to accompany another, Ben Hunt has been playing superbly in the under 20's, although this is the nrl, and it could be a nightmare for him. As long as Ben Hunt sticks to a strict game plan that assists Locky, by taking some pressure of him in attack and defence, I think they will do just fine. Provided he gets back in the groove and synchronises well with Locky, he should go alright. Lockyer, mccollough and hunt should share the majority of kicking duties in that order and our forwards need to step up a level above what they did against the dragons if we are going to be any match, we need to keep the ball away from slater and protect locky in defence, so he has some room to move in attack, they should also put hodges on Inglis, he did a terrific job defending him in last years heartbreaking loss and another thing is in defence shift folau to the wing for winterstein, because last night winterstein could have cost us the game had we not been so lucky on some of the high balls.
Anyways I reckon it's going to be an Eels/Broncos grand final.
What you guys think? Comment, I would love to hear other opinions.
Oh and btw sorry for writing an entire essay, it's my first post and yeah I'm pretty excited to be a member of this forums, CYA!
