@the-last-ronin not sure what blore has done that wrong tbh. AJ is playing great footy
I don’t rate Laurie but I am convinced he is a far better fullback than AD.
Bench is beyond ridiculous. Wondering if Sheens might have lost it.
If the theory that Bateman is out/toa to centres/blore to bench, then the bench isn’t that bad. Simpkin was always coming back in, which prefer than a brooks shuffle mid game. Matamua getting his chance is good, Twal holds his place.
IF Bateman isn’t out, then I’d be very surprised to see toa retain that bench position. You could count the number of times on one hand where a sheens Tuesday team list has not had a change by kick off.
Btw any Brisbane locals looking to catch up before the game on Saturday give me a shout. I’ll be taking my 9 year old bronco supporting daughter to the game, so appreciate any opportunity to avoid the inevitable gloating coming my way.
with Adam at No.1, that allows him to pick his run, be it left or right. There’s no better [fullback] at the club.
This one sentence terrifies me
Bench is ordinary, no impact players there apart from Matamua and he is still very green. I don’t know why Blore is not there, I thought he was slowly finding his way.
Our centres need to be on their game defensively this week. Staggs and Farnsworth are quick and powerful, we can’t afford to give away six agains and penalties or drop the ball around those two. AJ hopefully is switched on, his lazy arm grabbing tackling technique is a concern.
I'm terrified of what Walsh might do to our edges if they are getting good ruck speed.

my wife and I might head up from Byron. Not that I’m overly excited about the game but it’s always been a goal to go to the Caxton then on to a game at Suncorp. Happy to catch up pregame. I’d be keen on the Caxton

Great! We can hold our own mini ambush there.
The Caxton is an experience. I’ve been during origin wearing a blues jersey which wasn’t overly popular. Can’t imagine a tigers jersey will be any better. Strength in numbers though!

Great let’s do it!! Maybe we can patch into the Ambush event lol
For those that like Stats
Broncos have not beaten wests tigers since 2018 score 9 to 7 at Campbelltown
Brisbane look the real deal this year. If we get within 12 points of them it will be big effort.
Bench looks very strange.
Can only think that To'a is there as Bateman is under an injury cloud. If he doesn't make it, AJ would move to the back row and To'a to centre.
If Bateman does not play we could run Blore in the second row also but I take your point.
Yep don't think Blore has done much wrong. Just trying to make sense out of a strange situation.
Did everyone miss the Munster try where Blore was too tired to advance off the line? I don't think Blore has the minutes in him yet and I think he was found out for stamina against Melbourne.
