Thanks Salvo, you had a typo which is what confused me initially.

The Bronx will be in the top 4 if they stay fit 100%

Mickie, I do tend to agree with you (I think my Broncos hating glasses were well and truly on when doing my selections )

However, I feel like the Broncos are a powder keg that could go either way. Madge is a known disciplinarian who pushes his players to the absolute limit to try and get the best out of them as individuals and the team as a whole. This works for him in the Origin setting over a short time period, but how it goes for the entirety of a season remains to be seen with Mascara Boy and Co.

There is no denying the Broncos have a stack of talent across the park, but they also have a stack of giant-sized egos and how they handle Madge's hard-edged approach remains to be seen. Personally, I would love to see it all go pear shaped and have Thoroughbreds inc. win the spoon (probably won't happen, but we can live in hope).

What Madge has in his favour is that every NRL player want's to win a comp. The majority of the squad haven't plus they've felt the pain of losing a grand final when it was more or less in the bag.

Motivating them shouldn't be an issue! His challenge is to develop a playing system that works for his team.
