18-12 Broncos.

The Dogs invited the Broncos back into the game through their own ineptness and the Broncos were lucky enough to take them.

A poor start by the Broncos and the come back doesn't sound too re-assuring.

36-22 Broncos.

Unsure whether or not to be alarmed by the result. The Broncos appeared to be playing in second gear the entire game and only did enough to win the game. Next week will be the real test. A win will see the Broncos there with a chance, a loss on the other hand will prove we have no chance.

sh*t Kemp must be a good player, he's everywhere. According to Rabs he's playing on both wings, wearing the 5 and the 2.

Thaiday's a dirty little f*cking grub and judging by today's performance, Lockyer is very out of form.

Nothing left to say about the 'Dogs... we're trying but we just don't have the cattle. WS08 :crazy:

Where did Thaiday go wrong? He made two good legit tackles on Idris and gets penalised on both of them - one leads to bulldogs try. Ffs Maxwell was shocking. Kemp(I think) got "tackled" when he clearly wasn't and it leads to a goal line dropout - leads to Bulldogs try.

I know we won but score should have been 36-12. Bloody ref. We are lucky we are not competing for differential.

Knights will be tough, they HAD to beat Melbourne.

Well some of Thaiday's carry-on, particularly in regards to Idris, was pretty ordinary. He should've been binned for his second go in the tackle in the second half as well.

As for Lockyer, I think Utai put a fend or tackle on him late in the first half and he just looked rattled and wasn't throwing great passes and even managed a knock on from memory... just didn't seem to be his best day.

I wasn't aware lifting above the horizontal was legit? Nor was having a second go...? Which match were you watching?

I didn't see anything wrong with Thiaday's tackles, either of them.

Thaiday carried on when Idris tried to play the ball in the first tackle. He got penalised accordingly - move on. Excuse the bloke for showing some aggression, mongrel and passion.

Indeed. Let's be fair dinkum here - they're playing Rugby League, not Chess. It was great seeing them having a go at each other.

Maybe, but a second go like his used to be a sin-bin offence.

And I'm still waiting for an answer as to how a lifting tackle that takes the player above the horizontal is legit.
