Week 1 Finals v NZW

[jane the pain]

That went pretty much the way I thought it would. Clez master classed

rest up boys. Rest up

Luai will be back, would you leave Cogger out?

 

[PennyPanthers81]

Cogger to bench as cover for the halves I think.

Yeah Peachey offers nothing at 9 or 6 so it will be Cogger

I think like the Eels and Souths match ups in the last few years, we absolutely can lose to the Broncos. It might just be 2-3 times in 10 matches where the fireworks comes off for them and we can’t haul them back in.

Looked like a training run against the 3rd or 4th best team in the comp. Outside of the experience advantage over the Broncs, we appear to have been preparing and tapering for the grand final the whole season. Maybe we don’t have a 4th gear but chances are we do, and potentially a 5th as well which we haven’t seen all year.

Cleary has had a disrupted, average year but Jesus he was imperial tonight. No one else really stood out but no one put a foot wrong. Ver professional game.

 

[Kilkenny]

Things you and I have said for 3 years now. It's not arrogant knowing we are the best side

Give it a rest. Seriously, just give us a break.

 

[chrisD]

Easy as expected.

Sorro wasn't good but will hopefully be back to where he should be with that game under his belt.

Garner is the best replacement centre option.

Piss Peachey off.

We missed 14 tackles, that is with plodders like Garner and Cogger. Add Luai and Tago to the side

Made more linebreaks then Broncos. Far better completion rate

We are the superior team

Always so grumpy hun. You need a hug

 

[Fangs]

Good performance.

Honestly it's fine to rate the Broncos. But they were terrible on Friday night. Far below their best. Penrith win by plenty if we play today.

Luckily the Broncos and the Panthers get a week off. Both look very tough to beat. Most likely both of them will be in the grand final.

If the Broncos don't choke before the GF (Knights could do them) the GF game will go exactly like the last time we played them. Walsh around the back can burn us for speed on an edge, and even with that they'll need to play better than they have all year and get all the luck to maybe edge us out over 80mins. In a match that matters with games under our belt we beat them (in dry conditions) 8 or 9 times out of 10.

The Raiders will do them.

Melbourne rolled through Brisbane quite easily at times on Friday.

Not Brisbane’s best effort.

Our comp to lose 100%

Does cogs hook? If so, I like that plan. Nothing against the Peach, but what if Luai's arm comes loose again.

They literally cruised for half the second half.

Played Peachey for way too long ( if we were looking to pump them).

That is why Cogger must be the 14. Big decision cooking up in the next two weeks.

But if Tago is injured Peachey plays centre. So we have it covered if Garner/Hosking plays bench.

 

[herbert henry1908]

Both the Roosters and Storm are going to be pretty banged up by the time one of them gets to us.

Yeah I'm with you mate, I was just wondering if he's played Hooker at all.
