    it's unlucky but every year 1 team usually suffers with excess injuries it seems this year it's the broncos turn

    The Storm have had that for most of the season, with our next man up (Pezet) having done his ACL. Wishart has done an admirable job but he's the 3rd string 5/8.

    While thats true, thats still only having to address one issue, I’d wager I could go close to counting the amount of full-strength Broncos that haven’t spent at least a month on the sidelines this year on one hand

    the broncos have been pretty shit this year. not much in the way of squad depth, outside of the best 13 there's not much to speak of. missing the 8 a definite fail. i dont think that should mean kevy etc is under threat though, but the pressure would be on from the start next season.

    probably need to look at signing some depth. adding baker/hunt/gos this year was pretty poor.

    attitude for the most part just hasnt been there week to week

    Mahoney, Murray, or Koloa

    I like Keaon as an option with the Rabbitohs playing the Tigers twice, I can see him barge over for a try and put up another monster score
    I know some say he has peaked, or they are concerned about his job role with Murray back, but I can see him score well for the run home

    At present, I am thinking

    Cleary, Yeo (sensible) and Walsh (fun pick)

    Pre TLT thoughts.

    I’ll be without a hooker this week with Grant and Api out. Starling or Randall will come in, Starling playing the 80 is pretty encouraging

    Pretty sure everything has been covered today. Fog and Hosking back for raiders. Garrick was ill and didn't train all week, why he came off early. Api news already covered.

    This homage to a Rabbits21 style sentence has much too much punctuation.

    Losing Herbie, Flegler and Capewell were pretty big outs and then the Reynolds injury really hurting them.
