@avocadoontoast Broncos probably win the comp this year
Brisbane look the real deal this year. If we get within 12 points of them it will be big effort.
Going on form if we get within 30 we are doing well. They would be the best performing team so far and we are the worst.
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.
I had honestly struck that moment from my memory, but fair point.
That selection makes more sense now if Naden has been crook this week.
Yep, that one change makes the bench look so much better. But if that was the case, why not just put toa at 18 instead of blore. I swear the bloke gets his kicks by messing with peoples heads
If I were making a game plan my no.1 objective would be line speed.That’s where Melbourne excel,even when undermanned.We have to thwart their potency by maintaining a relentless 80 minutes of getting in their faces,even if it means conceding a penalty or two.We can’t afford to let them dictate.Disrupt at all costs.I’ve no doubts that our forwards can sting and surprise this lot.Cmon boys bring it on home!Tigaaaa!

Amen! I’d love to see our blokes attack with our defence.
Hastings killing it for Newcastle against Manly.
No further changes to the 1-17
Hoping Joffa finds his strength and form.
But if he did - Barring injuries - who would Joffa replace in our 17?
For me it would be abetween Twal and Joffa?

Sums up the paradox of this team. We are playing rubbish, worse than last year, but our best forward from last year cant force his way into the squad.
imo should have been named captain. Something is seriously up I’m reckoning. Whether he has said something or doesn’t agree with, but he should be in the 17.Hoping Joffa finds his strength and form.
