[Joker's Wild]

Playing for Nths in the Qld Cup mate. He is terrible vertically

I have heard Parker is out of tonight's game, can anyone confirm or deny this?

Don't be surprised if he scores less than normal for fantasy comps.

When has Reed caught or even dropped a high ball this season?

He caught a couple against the Titans. Wasn't under any pressure though.

Cheers for that!

That would be a MASSIVE loss. What would they do? Bring Carlaw into the starting back row or push one of the bench forwards into the starting front row and push Thaiday back into the back row?

EDIT: Just saw user_nats comment, nevermind.

good luck tonight guys (not too much, obviously). should be a cracker, and may the best team win. we've had some bloody good clashes in our history... and some bloody forgettable ones on both sides of the fence too.

Likewise, although you'll have to forgive me for wishing Mullen a night to forget... ;-)

This will be a better test for us to see where we're at.

Hope no one gets injured.

1. Umm. Reed. For not dropping a kick and being good.


Really hard to give points when the attack sucks. No massive standouts in defense.

We had our moments but still unable to control a game. Newcastle were their own worst enemy at times.

Geez we've had a good run so far, if we were playing a decent side tonight they would have smashed us. Will be interesting to see how we go next week against a team that can actually attack.

 

[renouf]

I thought the forwards were good tonight. Carlaw looked a bit unfit, I'd forgotten how big he is. Could be a decent player for us.

Isn't that what most people were saying coming prior to this game? That Newcastle will be a test which we haven't had yet...

Is it fair to say that the Broncos defense is what is making these teams look sh*t?

I really hope so.

You could say other teams are lucky that we have been so bad.

 

[Mig2006]

Attack isn't that bad really - 4 tries in wet weather? Of course, we should have scored more tonight, but I think we are building nicely.

I only heard first half on radio, saw second half at the pub.

This may be going against the grain, but im not very impressed with Gillett. He always tries to make something happen when nothing is on, and ends up losing the ball. He needs to learn just to hold the ball and take the tackle most of the time. You dont need to win the game with an offload every possesion! Rant over.

Another two points in the bag. Well done team!

Was thinking the same thing about Gillette.

I think Reed is a lot better left in the centres.

Bronx still have a long way to go with there attack, there attack on the line was terrible, great making metres up the middle, but as soon as they get to the line, they seem to get tunnel vision and seem to panick.

Gillett is an impact player. All year he has been playing nearly 80 minute games. a lot of him mistakes come from fatigue I reckon. Although all this match fitness will be good for him come the end of the season
