Dogs Vs Broncos - Should be Brutal

[Leagueguy]

This should be one of the most brutal games of the year. These are probably two hardest hitting packs in the competition. Last time Brisbane really smashed Canterbury and I don't think the dogs liked it much. They'll be out for some revenge tonight. Brisbane will revel in it though, these are their favourite kinds of games. I think it will be a tight match and both teams will have an opportunity to win the game. Brisbane need to introduce some more second phase play and be more oganized in attack if they are going to capitalize on their opporunities though. Regardless of the result it should be good to watch, especially the opening 20 minutes.

hahaha that's gold chewme... I mean aside from the fact that maybe one Souths forward would get some gametime at our club. Off the bench.

Come on doggies, smash the Broncs pack and leave them a jibbering mess for next week

Good call

I am expecting a big one from the Bronc's to be honest with you's.

Im hearing that SBW will be rested from tonight's game (very minor swelling to his knee - he could play but they aren't going to risk him) with Dallas McIllwain to come onto the bench. Not confirmed though at this stage.

I admire the Broncos defence and attitude last week but geez their attack is a shower of sh*te sometimes.

Karmichael Hunt still not back yet? The Dogs will find it all too easy to shut Shane 'No Talent' Perry out of the game and Locky will again have to rush things.

No doubt the Broncos will try very hard again. But seriously Shane Perry at halfback again :sarcasm:

We either find out 1 of 3 things about Perry tonight. He'll either show some spark and grit tonight, inspired by the constant criticism he has gotten all week. Alternatively he may lose even more confidence and really strugle. The option is that he remains at the same level he is now we find out thats about the guys best.

Webke & Asotasi up against each other will be awesome, the two best props running round at the mo imo.....love watching both these guys play, they play how its sposed to be played, Roy a touch more skilful, Webby edges him in toughness.

It is confirmed by the Bulldogs website designer who is currently with the team.

Sonny Bill will be rested tonight due to swelling in his knee- it is not an injury and he wants to play, but they are just resting him.

McIllwain into the side.

edit- ok someone already said it

 

[mattyg]

can't wait for the Webcke v Asotasi battle. First 20 minutes should be awesome.

 

[Cammo]

With 2nd spot pretty much sewn up it is no suprise to see Folkes rest some players as a precaution. If we win tonight then I would expect more to be rested over the next 2 weeks as well.

Anyone with a niggling injury shouldn't be risked as we pretty much have no hope of finishing anywhere other than 2nd.

one thing that shocked me, was Bennett's comments
well if thats what their coach thinks, and his players walk into this game thinking they will lose, i should expect a cricket score tonight.

even if you are last, you should always walk into a game prepared and determined to win, and not to judge the result without even playing

Agreed. Souths are no chance at anything but the spoon and still showing a winning spirit. Broncos could quiet easily turn their fortunates around with a bit of faith and a solid 80minute game.

It's unlikely that it will be this game, or even the next. But with their spirits, it's almost certain it won't be.

Did you read past the headline?

Maybe coaches shouldn't use the word 'lose' before a game, but he was hardly conceding defeat.

yep,
i remember reading the article at school, and he was saying a loss wouldnt kill them, and if its not by more than 20 points he wouldnt be worried.
