So i hear we get our players back this week to play the eels!!

If we roll parra we have a very real chance of scrapping into the top 4.... whether we finish their or not will be up to us but we can get in there

Dragons play Storm and we play parra with the added incentive of a bye...

We have a better F/A than the dragons too.. and does anyone else wanna say the bronc's are starting their slide???
 
id say only Stewart would be back, the rest after the Bye from what ive heard, Parra are on a roll so will be tough away.
 
a semi at brookie would be farking awesome, but still plenty of games left. Im far from confident!!!! however hopefully the Broncos stay true to form and have their annual end of season slide down the ladder, damn shame that would be!!!

Apparently Bell has a appointment with a specialist this week to get a clearance,
 
I spoke to both Bell and Beaver and neither said he was definite - both said close. With the bye the week after they may not want to take risks, especially with the win today.
 
I looked at the Broncos draw, imo we can take their spot in the top 4

How's the Dragons draw? I notice that they play the Storm next week. Considering that they lose and we win we will actually jump them.

Always love playing the slimes. Saturday night is a grand time to have it too, the game will be on my mind all week.
 
It sounds a lot like we need Bullet back more than anyone else. Yesterday seemed to suggest that the fullback spot was more of a problem than most other positions. So fire up the Bullet for the Eels.

From memory i looked at them, and they looked to have a better run in than the Broncos, and they have a history of firing at this stime of the year
 
01. Brett Stewart
02. Michael Robertson
03. Steven Bell
04. Steve Matai
05. Chris Hicks
06. Travis Burns
07. Matt Orford
08. Jason King
09. Michael Monaghan
10. Brent Kite
11. Luke Williamson
12. Steve Menzies
13. Ben Kennedy

14. Shayne Dunley
15. Kylie Leuluai
16. Mark Bryant
17. George Rose

If this is the team - we win.
 
The dragons fire at this time of the year and then fall apart at Semi time. They have been good things for years and have yet to make impact at the end of the season since 99.

27 years is a long time ago. :lol: :lol:
 
Without sounding like I'm conceding to the eels, leave bell, beaver, watmo, Kennedy and Stewart if need be out of this game. Gives them all a nice freshen up to begin on the charge to the finals. Some may ask why not add Kite to the list.

This gives the remaining players a good chance at consolidating bench spots for the remaining games and saves further risking injured players in a a game they don't have to win.
 
Injury news is:

Bell possible but probably won't be risked after we won yesterday. He will benefit from the extra two weeks afforded by the bye.

Beaver - won't be risked before the bye. His arm looks quite tender still.

Choc - Hand still in a cast. Won't be back until after the bye.

Stewart - possible.

BK - will play.
 
Stewart said he will be back this week. then said ..."ummm hopefully"

Choc told me definately weeks so after the bye. Did ask the rest
 
If ever there was a game this year in which Des was to use the same players as the week previous.....well then this would be it i suppose !
