Idris gone for the season

[broncos2010]

I guess Brown can always fill the gap, solid but not great can do the job.

Also maybe pushing DWZ one in can perhaps put simmons back in the team.

Peachey might make a good makeshift centre

 

[MaxPower]

Kite used to be a centre.

 

[Copperhead]

Taylor cleared of serious injury, should only be out for a few weeks.

finally some luck. Sadly for him to miss the test though

Peachey would be a gun centre I reckon.

Dont disagree with Peachey although George Jennings has been mentioned in place of Whare this week.

Where was George mentioned? Not doubting you, just interested..

 

[PANTHERMIKE]

I thought Whare was back this week?

 

[franklin2323]

I thought Whare was back this week?

1-2 weeks was given. so this week is 2 weeks

 

[betcats]

I thought Whare was back this week?

He is still struggling apparently but might be a chance. Hamstrings arent something you should play through or rush.

 

[GongPanther]

Jennings showed a bit of grunt defensively against Parra in the trials.

But making the step-up to grade in an NRL match could be his undoing in reading the defense.

I think they'll shift Yeo to centre and bring back Carty into the bench.

 

[flash]

News limited reporting Taylor to perhaps play and R.Jennings debut.

 

[betcats]

Good news even if Taylor doesnt play its a big plus that his injury isnt serious.

 

[mxlegend99]

So it looks like our backline could possibly be:

1. Moylan
2. Mansour
3. R Jennings
4. Blake
5. DWZ

Who would have though we would get to see all of George Jennings, Robert Jennings and Waqa Blake in first grade so early in the season?

I honestly thought we might only get to see one of them at most by Origin time.

 

[betcats]

Whoevers got James Roberts will be tested, he is on fire.

 

[soc123_au]

I really would have liked to Idris on him, to bash him into his shell early. Whoever it is needs to cut down his space.

Agreed. A rampaging Idris would have made mince meat of Roberts defence.

 

[betcats]

Yeah that would of been good though I think he play left centre which puts him against the Whare/Rennings side.

 

[Kilkenny]

Agreed. A rampaging Idris would have made mince meat of Roberts defence.

Always thought Roberts was quite solid in defence. He has good low technique and pace to recover if caught out of position.
