I would like to see the cows name:

1. Matt Bowen
2. Brenton Bowen
3. Ty Williams
4. Paul Bowman
5. Matt Sing
6. Johnathan Thurston
7. Brett Firman
8. Mitchell Sargent
9. Aaron Payne
10. Steve Southern
11. Justin Smith
12. Luke O'Donnel
13. Travis Norton

14. Rod Jensen
15. David Faiumu
16. Carl Webb
17. Shane Tronc

But i don't think we will see Bluey at prop, i just like the idea for the first game cause reportedly Webb has been training like crap and Tronc and Scott have just come back from injury and i think it is too early too see Tanilieu and Cashmere just yet

[beave]

cows

bowen
brenton
tybo
bear
singy
thursty
firman
Tronc
payney
Sarge
bluey/smith (depending if bluey's shoulder is right)
LOD
Norton

bench

webb
fauimu
tanilieu(drops off if bluey is alright, insert smithy here)
Jensen

2 of them can fill in at the backs if we get an injury but all those lads are primarily Forwards. Thats what i would do anyways. God i can't wait.

[BURGE]

Whats happened to Hannay over the pre-season?

[RHINO]

both broncos wingers i played against and alongside. Put my share of hits on both of them hehe

Broncs are lacking a bit of size off the bench, i reckon webb, jenson, mu and tanilieu or cashmere just cuz i havent seen those 2 in action yet. Bronco and winger on debut, bretts gonna drop bombs on him all day.

[Granty]

Whats happened to Hannay over the pre-season?
He's had surgery and hasn't had much of a chance to play in the pre-season trials.

there was a report that Hannay may play in the Clydesdales v NQ Young Guns game though.

[Milligna]

Isn't BB still injured? (shoulder)
Hope I'm wrong - would like to see him get a go.

1. Matt Bowen
2. Brenton Bowen

4. Paul Bowman
5. Matt Sing
6. Johnathan Thurston
7. Brett Firman
8: Mitchell Sargent
9. Aaron Payne
10. Shane Tronc
11. Steve Southern
12. Luke O'Donnell
13. Travis Norton

14. Rod Jensen
15. Carl Webb
16. David Faiumu
17. Robert Tanielu

I wouldn't like to leave Jensen out... he carved up against the Broncos in this game last year. In saying that, I think Justin Smith should be in the team somewhere, but I don't know where. Smith instead of Jensen would probably be a more balanced team.

Yeh I heard the story about Webb but I'm not sure. It only said average so it could have been just like the rest of the boys. Plus BJ sets really high standards and benchmarks and maybe Charlie isn't as motivated this season. But if he slackens off on the paddock well there is a reserve grade team

[Ianc]

The story about Webb training average had more to do with his injury IMO.
