1 try, 3 try assists but also on report for a high shot.
Took him off at the 47th minute.

Ben Hunt was an unnecessary signing. Personally I think he’s been pretty average and hasn’t done anymore than what Walters could’ve done while they wait for Mam’s suspension to end.

Our back row is an issue, I see the potential in Piakuru but how much longer do you wait? I’m Riki’s biggest critic, outside of kick chase, what does he offer? He doesn’t run great lines, rarely breaks a tackle and he’s not a work horse. Hetherington isn’t a starter either but I don’t mind him off the bench. I think we’ve got one of the worst back rows in the comp.

I don’t live in QLD anymore so I’m not up to date on the Hostplus Cup, how does Mozer, Black, Te Kura look?

I hate using this word but whenever we come up against an aggressive forward pack, we get rolled and almost look soft.

Walsh is a concern, he hasn’t played a decent game of footy since the panthers game last year after the head clash.

Is our depth so poor that McGuire doesn’t start his best forward pack because there’s 0 impact if he does? Wouldn’t Haas, Walters, Willison or Jensen, Riki, Piakura, Carrigan be our best available?

Broncos certainly have funny standards. Taupau faces the potential sack, for liking a Facebook post written by an old teammate. Meanwhile Mam walks straight back in.

Oh, absolutely. Amazing how clubs talk about driving standards and then when it comes down to it, all is forgiven and forgotten for players with talent.

But the best part is, he has to front the leadership group of, Reynolds, Carrigan, Haas, Staggs & Hunt.
Reynolds had issues with Carrigan, Carrigan had issues with Reynolds, Haas had some demons, Staggs had Issues with everyone, Hunt (newbie).
Fancy being judged by those clowns.

Seems Broncos recruitment people are at it again. They have almost no forward depth signed for next season and they sign two wingers in Anderson and Karapani. Maybe they plan to use them in the second row?

 

[League guru]

Bronks were ordinary against Parra last night. Maguire and crew in the coaches box got a bit excited, prematurely. They are a long way off being a premiership contender. Reynolds and Hunt both looked old and bereft of ideas, whilst Walsh, Mam & Staggs are so over paid and over rated.

 

[renouf]

Usual stuff, why is Ben Hunt at 9, should be just sticking with Walters. I doubt we'll go anywhere in the finals, you never know though with the teams in the top 4 (except Melbourne) aren't all that convincing either.

In a squad of 30, they have 5 hookers. Walters, Hunt, Paix, Smoothey & Mozer. None of whom are better then average. Recruitment at its best. I do believe Hunt is the best option, maybe even a better option at half then Reynolds.
