Re: Broncos Player Movements and Rumours 2013 The much maligned Peter Wallace was also excellent last night. As I have said ad nauseum, Wallace is a very clever and astute player who is let down by the poor lines run by his forwards and a general lack of creative and rehearsed ruck plays. Our...

mateo Would be an excellent signing- genuine skill in the ruck, with an X factor about him- great impact player off the bench. make it happen

Re: Josh Dugan - Broncos withdraw their offer Ok, some of our older readers may recall a former poster named Strapping Big Lad - this fellow was almost Paul the Octopus like in his uncanny ability to foretell the future regarding footy matters. SBL was barking mad but he did have some sort of a...

Like many of the tradional positions in league, the lock position has certainly morphed. Many teams play their lock as the central defender - between the props if you like. Others defend wider. It was laughable when the decision to select Gallen as a prop in the SOO last year created so much...

Hey Guys - I've been reading but not posting. Thanks Nashy for sorting out that stuff. That play referred to, IMO, is a Bennett play - he took it to the Dragons as well. These days, our game seems to be built on grinding enthusiasm, mobility, speed and fitness, in both attack and defence...

well, a 2-1 series win for NSW will earn RBY a few bucks. Before a ball was kicked this series, I had a flutter with a juicey return. I nearly put my hard-earned on a 3-0 whitewash - that was paying about $18 pre series. In saying that, pf course I would prefer the fairytale for retiring elder...

RBY is visiting your fine state capital this week. As well as swanning about doing tourist things, I took my son out to Broncos traning yesterday ( Tuesday ). Thanks to Coxy for sorting some info for me icon_thumbs_u . The drizzle has curtailed our outdoor plans for the day so I am holed up...

Well with our problems in attack having 6 hookers should at least provide plenty of openings.

My incredible gift for foretelling the future tells me that Thurston will not play in Origin 3. After beating the possible suspension charge, he will encounter an issue that will prevent him from playing. You have been informed.

The halfback from the Warriors has got it and I am really impressed with the Knights new young 5 / 8, Stig. He comes from Maitland where the Stigs are all brickies and concretors. Good hard stock. I haven't seen a player with a left and right step like Stig since Brad ' Adolf' Fittler busrt on...

...Is of course the the defensive pattern employed by NSW. After Game 1 I prattled on about how impressive and intelligent their defense was. It was very clever again tonight. We were all aware that NSW, by the team they selected, would play a fast faced and pressing game in defense. We saw it...

Many sides use their lock to defend in the middle of the park - almost a defensive front row position ( Paul Gallen et al ). Others like to place them wider in defence - 1 position in from the traditional centre spot. Most sides defend with their key playmaker in the traditional centre...

Shit players can easily fix matches. Giving away penalties in handy positions is easy even for the shittest.

Thought that the NSW outside backs defended very smartly. Thurston had his usual corridors closed down but Smith showed his class by finding an alternative. The talk about Matt Scott should come as no surprise - he was immense last year as well. The timing of Lockyer's pass for the final try...

NSW to win the first game. They will also win the series.

Not what I'm hearing. I think the Broncos are firming.

If he sees Boyd as a 5/8, he must have some great set plays up his sleeve.

1. J. Thurston / C Smith. 2. Daylight 3. Sundry others

I am a fan of Richard's and it is great to see him posting again. I do have to question the issue of ' depth' in attack though. If you watch Melbourne, you will see that they play very flat from dummy half and, as I have prattled on for a long time like a broken record ( ask your Grandparents...

You are soul!
