    Since when do Bronco forward bench players ever play big mins?

    I didnt see that live, so watching it for the first time now, I would have thought that's a TA, LBA, and LB Between the two of them). Did none of those get scored?

    By big minutes i am talking about 35-40. I see Haas being a PPM beast. If he sees 35-40 he will get around 40 points a game with the chance of a big try.

    Scored 866 up to rank 2,543 from 3,437 so happy with that. I had to play both Ravalawa & Sivo (he was so close to scoring that try when he ran onto that inside ball) so I'm looking at 2 decent wfb's. I can afford Gutherson & Meaney. If I went Ponga or Tedesco I wouldn't be able to afford Meaney who imo shows plenty of potential due to his speed which has led to 10 tb's in his last 2 games (4 v Wests & 6 v Storm). Gutherson & Meaney also play round 12.

    Lane out - Gutherson in
    D. Brown out - Meaney in

    Cook (c) - he will carve up the Warriors
    A. Fifita, Lawrie (with K. Sims & Host out he should get good mins)
    Arrow, Murray, Bateman
    Munster, L. Lewis (disappointed with his 43 since he was on 32 at h/t)
    Nikora, Bird
    Gutherson, Meaney, CNK

    Mahoney, Capewell, Garner, Sele
    Burr, Ravalawa, Sivo, A. Hopoate

    Thoughts & thanks.
    I don't mind Meaney or Gutho. I'm actually looking at meaney as a Burns replacement. Not really keen on playing the roulette that is Garrick/Ravalawa each week.

    For 2 weeks maybe. When TPJ is back expect production to dip a little.

    Turbo expected to be out for up to 2 months. Could potentially mean he misses origin 1 but plays round 12.

    2min mark for reference:

    In previous years that wouldn't have been an LB for Rapana, because Kahu managed to stay goal side of him the entire time before he kicked it, hence he never fully broke the line. Certainly there have been instances of the past which have been ruled similarly.


    They've also not always given a Line Break for regathering a kick (Supercoach have a separate stat 'kick and regather break' so there might be something similar at play here) so there would be precedent for that try not containing a line break at all.

    I thought someone said last week that all bets were off when it came to LB's & LBA's if a try was scored from a kick

    Well that makes sense because kicking it doesn't break the line. Getting past defenders does. We'll at least that makes sense to me

    There's been reports of Burns being out for 4, 6 and 8 weeks. I'm happy I traded last week with that uncertainty.

    I am bringing in Haas this week. Not many options at bottom price I was looking at Salmon but if/when Brown returns he won't be scoring well. Looks like I am missing the Okunbur & CHN sadly. But I get Ponga this week to make up for it.

    Wait, so is it confirmed A-Rey points are "Legit" because Fanhub is now taking points away for missing penalty kicks?

    I can't see them going back and change things if its the case that they've been doing it all year.

    Seibold has publicly said he needs someone to come in and show these forwards what to do and he is anointing Haas as the problem fixer. I don't see the problem fixer getting 20 minutes off the bench.

    Best case scenario - Offa goes lock, Haas starts at 10. Kills it, Broncos 2 from 2, TPJ comes back off the bench. Haas gets 40-45 minutes. (Can't really see this happening)

    Middle case Scenario - Haas comes in to the bench and plays the TPJ role off the bench of a 40-45 minute enforcer. (most likely)

    Worst Case scenario - Haas plays 30-35 off the bench for 1ppm. (I personally dont see this happening)

    McCullough has said Haas will come off the bench and they need him there with the right mindset and to get them on the front foot with quick play the balls, run hard and make strong tackles. I just think Haas will take that TPJ role and play 40 odd off the bench.
