[_noosh]

I still feel as though the benefits of Hunt's running game could just as easily work for us off the bench.
I really want to see more of Benji controlling. Would like to see him start this game.

 

[Super Freak]

Danger game.

Eels have a knack for being a massive thorn in our side at this time of season, especially at home.

Hopefully complacency doesn't set in after a win like tonight. We need to be switched on.

 

[Danoz Direct]

Hopefully we can play our best footy finally.

 

[PerthBrissy987]

If we win all 7 games we will be second

 

[Spike]

Boyd and Oates back for Pearson and Niko. Simple stuff with no major changes

 

[Danoz Direct]

Boyd and Oates back for Pearson and Niko. Simple stuff with no major changes

Don't think Oates will be back for a while.

 

[Kyall]

Put Boyd at wing easy leave Niko there and then all of our halves are in

 

[Broncos Maestro]

If we win all 7 games we will be second

Or even first:biggrin: if results go our way!:biggrin:

 

[Danoz Direct]

Put Boyd at wing easy leave Niko there and then all of our halves are in

No

 

[Spike]

A week ago Oates was a spectator at training and looked pretty good to me. Time for resting players is well and truely over. They can have a rest in October

 

[Accept]

Boyd and Oates back for Pearson and Niko. Simple stuff with no major changes

Except that Oates is out indefinitely with no guarantee of seeing him again this season.

 

[Kyall]

Doesn't sound like a bad idea especially with Boyd coming back for injury

 

[Accept]

Put Boyd at wing easy leave Niko there and then all of our halves are in

Great idea, let's chuck the Australian FB and team captain over to the wing.[emoji57]

 

[Danoz Direct]

Doesn't sound like a bad idea especially with Boyd coming back for injury

Mate he is the current Australian fullback and the captain of the Broncos, he ain't going to play on the wing.

 

[Kyall]

Boyds whole representative career has been on the wing.

 

[Broncos Maestro]

Great idea, let's chuck the Australian FB and team captain over to the wing.[emoji57]

Boyd's great at wing during Origin though:confusing:

 

[Horseheadsup]

Eels won't be pushovers, Semi can be dangerous. Our defence needs to be solid.
