Seibold cops a lot of flack for mentioned injuries a lot, but it is what it is, Dearden maybe should be getting a run by now, but i went through our squad and the only other blokes in our top 30 who weren't playing or injured are Rhys Kennedy and Ilikena Vudogu. That's literally it. one's a run of the mill forward, the other is a winger whos played league for 2 years, neither are going to win us football games, the rest of our healthy guys are on developmental contracts and when we're being savaged as a bunch of kids who aren't ready for the NRL, the answer is not to throw more of those kids into the fire. how do you drop players when that's what you are left with?

You do it anyway because the alternative is a train wreck like we're seeing.

if you're dropping your big-money players for players scooped from the bottom of the barrel, you're getting a trainwreck either way.

I thought the new rules would of suited him because he's mobile, has good feet & likes an offload but he keeps losing the ball all the time & looks shattered.

The difference may be head space. Broncos looked great the first 2 rounds, had Fifita in dominating form, to complement the rest of the forward pack. When your team is getting thrashed each week and you don't feel supported by the guys around you, it has the potential to massively impact your own form.

What's the record for demerits. I think Maloney might challenge him for that and Darcy Lussick once missed like 14 tackles in a match.

Maybe Siebold has to go old school & just thrash his players. When I look at some of the Broncos players they look out of shape & not fit. A. Milford is a prime example.
