Hunt has played 70 odd first grade games but he doesn't seem confident enough to demand his share of the ball, when he is in the halves. He needs to step up more if he wants to be a long term option. Broncos kicking game seemed very rushed tonight at key moments.

Yeah Macca played his heart out again tonight. The one thing Granville brings to the side when he comes on is a nice crisp pass that can hit a man 2 wide of the ruck. My only concern with Granville when he comes on is he always tackles low. Whilst this is good when sides are bringing the ball...

Geez you guys are hard markers. They defended the house down in the first half and would have had a bit more in attack if the dogs didn't get away with so much in the ruck. In the first half the only dogs try after a mountain of good opportunities came after a lucky regather from Barbara. In...

In fairness, the Titans made a complete mess of Granville's kick. It was a good option but the kick execution wasn't that great... the titans winger and fullback made it look much better than it was.

The broncos halves like the majority of halves in the comp struggle to have an impact when our forwards aren't getting a roll on and getting some quicker play the balls. Only the very top tier of halves manage behind beaten packs. I think we are probably one real "big body" short against the...

Yeah they definitely need to be turning Inglis around as much as possible as if he gets a head of steam up on the kick return sometimes even a straight line won't stop him. It is boring and negative but intentionally kicking the ball dead may not be such a silly idea if Inglis is in good form.

I think you are missing the point... in the current arrangement the TV deal is $$ value is maximized by allowing Ch 9 to schedule the games and hence a high rating side like broncos are regulars on Friday nights... by taking away Ch9's freedom of choice and scheduling Sunday games would reduce...

Re: It's time to go... After 3 rounds all the talk was we had nothing in attack except going down the right to Hodges. Now we are apparently over reliant on our left hand side... some people are hard to please. We don't have the most star studded line-up in the comp but we do have one of the...

Unfortunately you can't have everything. Everyone loves the extra revenue the TV rights brings which also guarantees the livelihood of most clubs (broncos are probably an exception here) and will hopefully guarantee we don't lose our top stars to other codes. Whilst a few Sunday games would be...

Don't think he is up to a full time switch, but can't see why he shouldn't spend 10mins or so there each half when we are on attack. Let Hoffman defuse the bombs and take the heavy contact on kick returns, but the odd injection of Hodges at fullback on attack would give him a free reign to roam...

SK: Hey Hook Bro... We never lost a game between October and December at Parra... Pretty choice hey! AG: That is why it is called the off-season Stephen... KW: Now run along... those water bottles need filling...

In the few Q Cup games I have seen Baptiste is very hot and cold. He is sharp around the rucks and is definitely quicker off the mark than McCullough, but he still has plenty of errors in his game. His pace out of dummy half does make him dangerous though...

One area I think that needs improvement is Ben Hunt's service out of dummy half when he comes on late in the first half. I think he adds something around the ruck with his running game, but the speed and quality of his pass to the 1st receiver I think is at times a bit too sloppy. And this is...

Did anyone see the Crusher tackle from Bromich on Copley in about the 5th minute? How did the refs miss that?

Everyone is welcome to have their own opinion, but I would have to say that the front page article about Beale is super optimistic... yes he is a good strong ball runner with good footwork... but a huge stretch to think he is even in the running for the #6 jersey in 2012. Next thing people...

McCullough probably got manufactured into a hooker as he was never going to be quick enough to be a 5/8...

How long to go?

No it will be 54-0 to the broncos with 5mins to go and in the first bit of refereeing controversy for the year the refs will stunningly award a 7pt consolation try (Gus will go off). Billy Harrigan will defend the innovation of creating new rules during games. There will be then be question...

Hardly a huge stretch to think that Bennett did the math and when he thought about which players he could target to take with him that K Hunt was earmarked as a future broncos captain and top of the tree marquee player... so why bother planting seeds of doubt in Hunt's head when the broncos...

If we were to miss the finals there are plenty of games that you could look back on and say we let 2pts slip... Canberra rd 2 - we had them shot to pieces and would have won but for some woeful options by McCullough around the ruck Newcastle (early rounds) - after an ugly start the broncos...
