The only thing that can stop us is the team bus exploding on the M4.
I'd back our medical team to still get the guys on the field

Brisbane have been spoon fed for years, playing just about every Friday night game and rest for minimum 7 days after each game.Still sucks that Brisbane are offered an advantage that we don't get.
As a very long term Panther fan I have been conditioned to be pessimistic. However even I think if we stick to what we have done for the past 3-4 years we should get it done against a fairly busted Melbourne side. If we do win I won’t be so confident the following week against Brisbane.So, how confident are we of progressing to the GF?
Openly cheat the cap. Then when "caught" they just paid off Andrew Gee to leave his roleBrisbane have been spoon fed for years, playing just about every Friday night game and rest for minimum 7 days after each game.
Really, I heard Tago was good to go, he must have re-injured himself. That’s not good.Playing at Accor this week is an advantage in itself. Brisbane would need to come out of their bubble and play on a track they haven’t set foot on all year. It’ll be the 3rd time they leave QLD in 4 months. Plenty of advantage in our preparation, not to mention an extra day for recovery.
Sounds like To’o said Luai is in and Tago is out. Definitely need to carry Cogger on the bench as Kenny/Luai cover and I’d go Garner on the right and Critta on the left so Romey has strong defenders either side. Give Kenny a rest after 50 mins and then just leave Cogger out to play 6 for the last 15-20.
Hopefully Tago is right for the grand final. Makes us so much more dangerous having threats on both sides of the field.

Or the Broncos pack will have to go 80mins against Kennyid risk Luai this game - if he re-injures - we have enough to cover him against the Storm.
i think its too risky holding Luai for an all or nothing GF - imagine if we make the GF and luai goes down in first 10 mins .... Mitch Kenny would have to go 80 against the Broncs pack
Haha bit dramatic saying we can't win with TagoKenny is capable of 80 and i think we need him out there the next 2 weeks for all of it.
Hes the best middle defender at the club bar maybe yeo but hes line speed and ability to stop a bigger man in their tracks is unmatched.
Against two big packs we need him.
Tago i think really needs to be fit..
Can possibly get away with garner at centre this week but no way against walsh... no effing way in the world..
If tago isnt fit for the gf we lose..simple as that..
Peach and garner dont have the speed to combat walsh... no one does but you need critta and tago out there for that if we get there.... walsh would have a field day against the peach or walsh and that is with all due respect to how good theyve been.
If luai isnt 100% cogger plays imo...
If tago isnt 100% fit garner plays centre imo...
Its not ideal... and i know you cant risk losing to be in a gf... but we lose the gf anyway i think with cogger at 6 and or garner at centre if tags and luai get hurt again. Walsh and mam are to devastating and quick for our back ups to handle..
Anyway... just win this week boys..
Im confident but i think it will be a huge battle..
Nath needs to own it. Despite all the media love storm bs his kicking game at large times this year has just been avg...
He needs to have to have it on a dime and play eyes up...
Lets make history
You shut Walsh down with structure not speed. Garner can handle him if we remain in our structures.Kenny is capable of 80 and i think we need him out there the next 2 weeks for all of it.

Exactly, his speed is irrelevant if you don't allow him to get in a position to use it. He was a non event when we played them at Suncorp.You shut Walsh down with structure not speed. Garner can handle him if we remain in our structures.

The only time Walsh has seen us lose was from in the stands.
