    Cronk ready for battle
    View quote in context »
    Ordinarily when the Storm and Broncos are set to go head-to-head Cronk would be preparing to face Peter Wallace but with the New South Wales Origin half-back ruled out by a broken ankle he isn't too concerned about the uncertainty surrounding what Brisbane will do in the halves. "Obviously it was an unfortunate injury for (Wallace) but Darren Lockyer plays a pivotal role in the way they attack, Karmichael Hunt's playing some outstanding footy and they've got some running back-rowers that are ball-playing and providing a lot of attack for them" Cronk added. "It's not ideal for them but I think they can cover it and they'll be definitely coming down here throwing the football around." Full Article at Sportal Australia

  1. You can get caught up in worrying about what other teams are going to do at finals football but you've got to go out and execute what you've been doing out on the training paddock for the best part of 80 minutes and do it to the best of your ability - whichever team does that will end up on top.
