PRE-GAME Broncos v Bye

[GCBRONCO]

Startling statistic found in games involving the bye. No scrums, hitups, linebreaks, offloads, intercepts or metres. No tackles or mistackles. No kicks or kicking metres. No penalties awarded, touch finders or 40/20's, no conversions, tries scored, try assists, penalty goals or field goals for or against. No sin bins or send offs. No starts to matches, halftimes or fulltimes or golden point or finals appearances. No interchanges or changes to the lineup since their introduction to the competition. And their crowd attendences at their non existent homeground are the worst in the competition's history. How they manage to maintain their existence in the competition is amazing.

Even though we will be depleted due to origin, the Byes are really struggling to field a first grade quality team and their depth is right up there with the worst in the league.


I've heard they are looking at signing Cooper Cronk to try and instil a winning culture but I don't see how they would have the cap space.

This is bullshit. Seems like every year we come up against these pretenders TWICE during the Origin period and they don't provide a single Origin player. Proof the comp is rigged. Most teams consider playing the Bye team as a guaranteed two points, yet we play them when we're at our weakest. **** them out of the comp, they offer nothing, I'd just rather Bennett pull a no-show and the team have a week off.

I think they could afford him, their players don't even play for peanuts.

Oh here we go, Paul Green blowing up deluxe in the press room, about the bye team.

 

[Sproj]

It seems he or someone like him is unhappy that the Bye doesn't have the same salary cap restrictions as everyone else.

 

[Aldo]

I heard they are prepared to pay Mbye a packet for next year

 

[Super Freak]

This is another game that Ben Hunt will fail to win us..

The live match thread is going to be a beauty
