The Broncos/Cowboys Rivalry

It's one of many gifts the Broncos have given the NRL.

Shorty we love you and I'm going to take it on faith that what you said about our routinely wishing injuries on Cowboys players is true. I think there's been about 5 posts in total in our subforum so far this year so most of them must have been about your team.

Have you checked out Broncos Hq at all ?

They have a thread on this very topic

Enjoy. Tin foil hats are optional

Broncos v Cowboys entertaining games the last couple of years? Definitely. Biggest sporting rivalry though? Hardly.When it surpasses the Roosters v Souths for longevity and intensity of feeling then get back to me.

A very strange post from shorty. Rose tinted glasses my friend.

The broncos are one of if not the most hated club, with the few exceptions the majority of our fans are like "meh".

Honestly those posts were disappointing and while it's usually frowned upon, you're always going to have some dickhead emerge and wish that sort of thing on a player.

Not excusing it either, but every fanbase has them.

The rivalry and all of the Cowboys golden point wins are manufactured by the NRL according to some fans on the Broncos forum. The cognitive dissonance is strong.

Shorty I live in Brisbane and almost every Broncs fan I know has the Cows as their "2nd" team. The GF loss has certainly helped the rivalry but it is hardly fierce from the Broncs point of view. I do agree that there is more hatred from your end.

This is pretty much spot on.

NQ supporters definitely have a more passionate dislike for the Donkeys than vice versa.

I have plenty of Donkey mates that want the Cows to win every game they play bar against them.

I personally think it stems from the Qld mentality to Origin. Qlders hold Origin above club footy, so when their Origin heroes like Thurston and Scott beat them, they find it hard to hate them because they would swirl their lolly bags around in their gobs at Origin time.

NSW supporters care far more about club footy so the hate for rival clubs is intense.

I'd rather NSW lose 10 in a row if it meant my club won a premiership.

Thats my take on it anyway.

Yeah I'm not seeing that either. Trolls like IBM and The Champ aside I see more Cowboys fans being sore winners than anything else. Continuing with stupid jokes about war as if EVERY Broncos fan made that comment.
I'm more inclined to think that is an LU thing more than an anti broncos thing, if you stick your foot in it on here...you will be constantly reminded of it in every post.
It is probably just more satisfying to users that a few of the dumb posts of the year are from Broncs fans.

If he wanted to make a war joke, at least be clever about it and quote Sun Tzu or something, not f**king Wacko Jacko
