Match Discussion: Round 15 vs Broncos @ McDonald Jones Stadium

[Zoidberg]

Gaaaaaaame day!
Are we excited?
I’m pretty nervous. Born and bred in Bris and most of my friends support them, don’t get the chocolates very often. Hope we can keep up, and improve on our form from the last few months (minus Storm game).
Hoping to see a huge crowd rev the boys up.

I'm excited but a wounded Broncos side makes me very nervous too

Very keen on game. Crowd looks like could be as large as the Roosters game. Nervous for the first 20min.

Saw a couple of posts on Facebook saying that ABC Grandstand reporting that Ponga is out? :/

They mentioned on fox sports that there’s breaking news at Newcastle, I’m guessing that’s it. Faaaarrkkkk

 

[Burns]

Hearing long term injury to Ponga

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..........

Origin just does no favors for us... Every single one of our players come back injured from Origin games...

 

[Zoidberg]

Knights fb confirmed he’s out with a calf issue. Mann to fullback Lino to 6.

This is the same sick feeling in my gut I got when I heard Joey was out lol

 

[Burns]

Mick Ennis "Will you be right for Game 3?"

Who cares

Can Ponga just not play Origin thanks

Are you forgetting our last win . It was without Ponga too . I’d be more worried if Pearce was out tbh

 

[Zoidberg]

From the confidence Ponga has it seems like it’s just to rest it. He’s pretty confident for Origin 3.

 

[Burns]

Kevin Walters banging on about the Knights looking after Ponga to help him for QLD. Help me

Forget our last win? I'll never forget another win again after the past few years..

Ponga is brilliant but he certainly doesn’t have a Joey-like impact on this team in terms of our results. Like someone else said I’d be more worried if Pearce were out.

Obviously no Ponga makes it more difficult but if we’re being honest if we’re fair dinkum we still beat Broncos without him. Our attack will suffer but energy and effort needs to be there regardless of Ponga.

Agree. If we are serious this year, we can't prepare any excuse because Ponga isn't there.
