2016 Wk 2 Semi - Cowboys 26-20* Broncos @ 1300SMILES

[DiegoNT]

Parker was taken off because he was clearly gassed. All our forwards were and the usual rotation had to go out the window.

We always usually leave a bench forward for the last 10-15 mins. Lately it's been Arrow, but last night it was Pangi. He would have been due to come on but then Opacic had to go off and we were out of interchanges.

Be interesting to see if broncos new coach will use those tactics next year

 

[Spade]

Broncos threw away a premiership last year and now blue another GF appearance this year.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Best on ground tonight, ironically

For the Broncos, I assume you mean. Not that he had much competiton from his halves. Or forwards. Or outside backs.

 

[TheVelourFog]

Coote doesn't drop those balls and we win comfortably I think

Broncos show very little in attack

Gameplan seems to be "hope Milford can step around a tired forward"

Did Opacic get injured, or did he get hooked... he looked to be struggling in defence, and a bit shaky with the ball.

The last pass for the Cowboys try was really forward. Shame there were no officials in line with it to make the correct call there.

Ahh, the irony after last week's game v Titans.

Pass was good.

 

[TheFrog]

Lol. Ok. And James Roberts kick......... fatigue too.

No that was the fault of the player on the ground. Roberts couldn't play the ball, you see. I'm almost surprised the judiciary didn't swallow that.

I've been thinking...some forward passes are ok by me

Call back the ridiculous ones but its too hard to rule on the marginal ones, and over the course of the game both sides throw them so it evens out

Doesnt bother me too much

So is the war still going?

So is the war still going?

My white flag is raised. You win.

Cheering for you guys and Penrith/Raiders now. Anyone but the f**king Sharks and Storm

Most players would simply take a step back and play the ball not lose it and whoosh it into a player on the ground with his back exposed.
Roberts and the Broncos probably thought they pulled a swifty on the Titans but they did them a favour.

Had stiff competition for fullback though.

Coote was much better for the broncs last night than Boyd. Oozed creativity and kept them in the game at some pretty key moments.

 

[dogz08]

just imagine kiwi's reaction after last night's game

 

[Spade]

Broncos should've had a kick from 50 out to win it, when the Cowboys knock on in the 79th minute a cowboy in front of the ball carrier picks the ball up.
