    Pretty keen for this game.

    Both sides have exceeded expectations thus far as most tipped them to really struggle. However Dragons are 3 from 3 with Widdop being in top form and Broncos are 2 from 3, only just missing out on a perfect record against the current premiers last week.

    Should be a cracker, heart says Broncos by 10, however head thinks Dragons by 4.

    Key for the Dragons is to run all their early plays up the guts, then shift their attack to the fringes of the ruck. Our 2nd rowers over defend and don't slide out quick enough to cover their edges. If I was to make a bet; it would be for Creagh to pick up at least 1 try.

    They should also keep possession as close as possible, as Broncos do struggle to score points, even with decent possession. If they can hold onto at least 45% of the pill, they'll probably win it.

    Vidot fts and I'm a happy camper.

    Yeah surprising start from both sides. Think the Merge win at home though.
     
  6. Toolman TR Man

    Someone 1-12 for me.. probs Brisbane.
     
  7. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Not really sure why, but I think the Broncos will get up.

    Did I also hear Dugan might be a late inclusion?
     
  8. Wilson SB Wilson

    Broncs will get up.

    Fair play to St George on a good start but they've played mugs the first three weeks. Watching them last week I wasn't very impressed.
     
  9. Julian BJ Taylor

    Not impressed with either.

    Dragons by about 10 IMO.
     
  10. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    This is the first game all year I've gone into confident. Broncs 1-12 vidot fts
     
  11. Toolman TR Man

    Is it raining?
     
  12. Alec AD Funkotron

    Copley, fuck yea
     
  13. Pretzel P Retzel

    Broncs going good so far.
     
  14. KickATinAlong IA Ryabovol

    So confused, thought the zero tackle/20m restart only applied to if teams kick it dead?
     
  15. Pretzel P Retzel

    Broncos kind of went away from what was working there. Need to just play simple direct football and they'll win easy.
     
  16. Toolman TR Man

    Typical Vidot

    Wtf was the forward pass call from Hunt to Glenn?
    Broncos have done like 4 deadset forward ones since too, without being pinged...
     
  18. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Fuck Reed has been shit in defence over the last year or so.
     
  19. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Great option by Macca there.
    Some very soft tries in this game.
