team vs broncos

[big_dell]

when is it going to be announced!?

hope coops and scott are back!

 

[W.B.2.S.O.S]

I thought Cooper would be out for the season, but apparently Bennett will have him in the side this week. As for scott, i dont see any reason why he should miss another week

 

[dragonfire]

think Cooper will play the season out on painkillers and then get surgery.

Boyd
Sailor
Scott
Cooper
Morris
Soward
Hornby
Poore
Fien
Weyman
Young
Creagh
Costigan

Smith
Prior
Hunt
Nightingale

Thats my guess for the lineup, though i would prefer to start Smith/Prior and get Fien to come off the bench

Is there a chance Weyman might be rested after he got KO?

 

[dragondad]

Gee that's almost full strength

 

[DeeJ]

Is there a chance Weyman might be rested after he got KO?

I was under the impression that was NRL protocol to miss the next week if you get knocked out during a game.

 

[STG-Dragon]

That's a very strong side. Go you Dragons!!!!

 

[liaaam_]

WOW, that is an extremely strong side... especially with jeremy smith coming off the bench... when will he be starting again... or will they keep him on the bench as an impact player...

 

[God-King Dean]

I don't think there's a better bench than that in the NRL.

 

[KoMoToe]

Ah well to bad,we need him for this one,our forward depth should be good enough anyway.

 

[Godz Illa]

First time I've heard that. It's up to the club doctor and the player ultimately.

 

[muzby]

weyman didn't get knocked out.... the rest of the world just went on fast forward..

 

[bmwpower]

what a team. im guessing that would be us at full strenght. i dont think priddis and paea will be back. hopefully we can keep that right through to the finals

 

[hardbaby]

Yep I think that will be our starting 17 come finals time. Saffy might be the only risk. He may not be the most exciting forward in the world but he plays his role and can shift between front row and second row to cover an injury.

 

[Steel Dragon]

Love the look of that team! What odds are Dragons 13+ ?

 

[STG-Dragon]

WOW, that is an extremely strong side... especially with jeremy smith coming off the bench... when will he be starting again... or will they keep him on the bench as an impact player...

He's match fit yet, you can see it on the field he looks pretty tired after he's been on for a bit.

 

[HardcoreDragonsFan]

Jeeze thats superb strong full strength line up. I will bet on 13+ by miles! Insane NRL strongest bench there with Jason on!

 

[TheRev]

Yeah its a good side, but no doubt there will be injuries/suspensions between now and a possible GF, so I think the fringe players will get their turn yet.

I think we will beat Brisbane (due to the home ground advantage), but they are in a very rich vein of form right now, so it could be another physical game.

 

[j0nesy]

Brisbane will have some confidence after their win, but I think their defence looks terrible. Bennett will have us fired up after the loss to the Raiders. I think we'll win comfortably but it will be a very, very bruising encounter.
