So will any ladys be joining us in this thread today I wonder?

The perils of putting someone on ignore:

 

[Joshuatheeel]

So what’s a good result for tonight?

Potentially 3 props out and 2 players debuting, 2 players in our spine with less then 10 games between them. All on the hardest road trip in the game!

If we are still in it with 20 to go and we only lose by 12 to 18 points (like 24 to 6 or 24 to 12) it’s probably a good result!!

Agreed mate. I would love to see us smash the Storm and make it 3 in a row but that is a massive ask.

true but thy are missing hughes, hoffman and Cronk
plus that fat ex bulldogs player who lost a lot of weight and is never seen now....

NRL game time for Mahoney, Salmon, Kaufusi and potentially Stone...

Does anything else really matter at this point?

Avoiding the spoon would be nice

Do we get an advantage for running 13th, 14th, 15th instead of 16th?

Yep. We don’t get merkins sending us pics of spoons for the next three months.

If they are disadvantaged with Cronk missing, I suppose we also have Semi missing !!

Hoffman, we lost our edge player Edwards several weeks ago too!!

Hughes and Sam probably isn’t a big of a loss as Alvaro, Manu, T. rex, Evans and potentially Mannah!

Could also throw in Scott and Matagi as well, if they were available I doubt we wouId be potentially debuting 2 forwards against the Storm tonight!

I agree totally, it’s a good experience for all the rookies!!

We won't get first pick in the draft

Avoiding the wrath of the ref in a Storm game would be a good step forward, but I expect a totally biased game against us. We used up all our annual good luck from the refs last week.

Btw how come we always seem to play the Storm in Melbourne?

Also how come the Broncos ALWAYS have more go luck from the refs than any other team?

Before it is Game Day for me, it is Plane Day.
Not sure if I should start another Plane Day thread but regardless...

We're all thinking the same thing as the chimp

 

[Parra Cheeses]

Just touched down in bleak city and the first bloke I meet is an asshat Merkin called Melvin Storm.

Is that really appropriate Gary?
