Re: 1st Semi Final vs Roosters @ AAMI Park

What needs to happen is a thorough understanding of the rules and implications Yes, but we can't influence the refs :( OK, I hear ya, but. Get the ball on the defending goal line and dive to the ground (they're never gunna call an involuntary tackle as much as it infuriates me). When the opposition...

If a player was so hopelessly out of form and they just so happened to be a captain or a marquee player does this mean they are untouchable?

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

Sua'ali'i & Manu out next week & no Hargreaves. If we still can’t win that’ll do me. Either way whether we advance or not, we ain’t beating Penrith in Penrith. I love storm, die hard fan but we just don’t have the backs and forwards to match them. Can’t deny but a Penrith vs broncos GF woul...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

It’s a funny thing when you sit and really think about the selections lately, if I told you 12 months ago … - Our back up utility Meaney would be keeping Papenhuyzen on the bench as a middle forward - Young Tonumaipea & Marion Seve would force Reimis Smith & Justin Olam to reserve grade - W...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

As far as the game went, we were bashed with and without the ball. The thing about rugby league, if the forwards aren't going forward the team is going backward, very badly as in last night. The tone was set from the first hit up. (Is there a stat from teams receiving or kicking off that wins more g...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

The news coming out about Paps is looking much more positive. Seems just the smaller bone (fibula) was broken not the tibia (large bone) and there was no compound fracture (skin being pierced) which vastly improves the prognosis and hugely lowers the risk of infection. He has had a plate and 6 scre...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

Half time and very lucky to still be in it.
Can't blame the ref, can only blame lack of intensity.
Unlike others, nothing wrong with T and Seve, at least they bring the ball back with some effort, more so than a left side second rower...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

No mistakes, get the ball down the other end, kick early and kick often and turn them around and a straight line in defence, (Munster, no rushing up and getting brushed.) Get them guessing, come up or sit back. Things will open up with this game plan, but, it relies on getting the other side of half...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

Not at all happy with Moeroa not being named. He’s better play off the bench or I’m going to be really pssed off. Him and NAS off the bench is precisely what this side needs I'm not as convinced in Tepai as others are. He had a cracking game against a very poor Warriors last year and got injured, h...

Re: Finals Week 1 vs Broncos - 2nd Qualifying Final - Suncorp Stadium

Anyone else had a look at BroncosHQ forum? I try to be impartial and pay respect to other teams, as I’ve said in previous posts Brisbane are a good team on paper anyway. But, talk about a deluded fanbase, it’s actually quite funny to read their posts, they don’t really talk about just being confide...
