[fletch]

Dom Young is going to be an absolute nightmare in these conditions.

The boys are gonna bit a bit nervous. Hopefully that settles quick and make those ponies struggle for every metre. Cant ask for more than that.

Bring on the rain. Hope it pours down as it’ll bring us back into the betting.

It's time to play! Really looking forward to this. Lets go Roosters!

[BraveTheWorld]

Great to be back! Hope you've all had a fantastic start to the year.

I'm in North Brisbane and the weather isn't too bad at the moment. Windy, but nothing that crazy. Nice and cool and a bit of light sprinkling.

I definitely don't expect us to win, but it's exciting to watch the Chooks play and to see a bunch of debutaunts. Hope to see some better defensive fortitude.

The Broncos are talented and sometimes a player just does something that you can't defend, or they get a bounce of the ball. I don't mind consceding those Try's, but the ones straight down the middle have become common for us over the last few years. I'd like to see significantly less this year.

Enjoy the game, everyone.

Yeah hoping Marry get get into the swing cause he's a potential power built strong fella.

Funny, it LOOKS like English, but WTF?

Footys back boys and girls. How good!

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Roosters till I die! Hoping for these young guys to show the world how badly they want to be first graders.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

what might have been. hard to win games when a) you lose a shit load of experience and b) you have half a dozen players injured
still, as always, as a fan all you can ask is that they do their best. if the broncos are better then so be it. so long as we play every game this year like we mean it

I don't know what to expect and am approaching this game with all the enthusiasm of a trip to the dentist. (envious of Souths supporters here).

I think I'm still grieving the loss of JWH and Kez, my two favourites. And to make it worse, they are still going around. Oh well, we have to have a succession plan enacted sometime, so here goes. Our recruitment and retention in recent seasons has been diabolical.

We will likely get a touch up if trial form and team sheets are much of a guide.

One aspect I look forward to a bit is our two centres. Mark N looks class. With more experience he should be a great acquisition. And Rob Toia gets his chance, wishing him the best. Looks to have some quality.

Good luck guys...still cheering for ya.
