Turpin back in reserve grade.

If we can win this week in the NRL and the Cows and Manly lose, we could be in 8th.

That probably requires the Broncos to thrash the Cows, this is one of the few times I am hoping for a big Broncos win.

We don't have any easy games on our run in, even the Dragons game will not be easy.

Injuries might be a factor for all teams, Mann, Toups and Hughes are hopefully getting fit.

We might needs guys like Turpin and Xerri. We might need to shift Critter to centre or play Readon at centre.

The reality is 7 tough games 7 werks in a row, we need to win at least 5 and replace any guys that get injured.

I still think our depth might work for us, but we need to perform at a high level each week.
 
I made it in. Got blocked last night again. I listened to the game, absolutely stoked with the defensive effort with only a fluke bounce of the ball upsetting consecutive clean sweeps. I'm not sold on Critta at ⅝ but a win is a win and a solid one at that. We get Tupouniua back we may be hard to contain.
 
At least I jinxed the Broncos by hoping that they would win.

We need to keep winning, all we need to do each week is play the same as this week.

It was a team performance set up by the forwards.

Team song after the game was great.

Rinakama seemed to be ok.

Defence was great . Warriors were suffocated and contained well. Never looked like they were going to score . The edges were defended well DWZ one of the best in the game was contained well .
I think we can go a long way in this comp .
The whole team look fit and ready . Presto and Kiks have made a big impact since coming back . Burto one fire in his natural habitat the centres .
You can count the Broncos out. Cannot believe that Fox is still thinking they can still make the finals mathematically.
 
Reserve grade lost 38-16. Sometimes happens in reserve grade, the team and individual players can be inconsistent.

An experienced half like SOS can make a difference in reserve grade.

We don't need to promote any players at this stage.

Underhill and AJ might benefit from some long minutes in reserve grade. AJ might have played 80, and might replace Reado on the bench.
 
The spell out injured means Kiks and Presto are refreshed and energetic. Kiks looks fitter than the last 2 seasons.

We need to bring the same energy each week, any team good enough to beat us when we play like that deserves it.
