09 :: R7 Fri :: Broncos 40 Eels 8 @ Suncorp

[Frank_Grimes]

Broncos 12-0, Karmichael Hunt scores a try.

Tautai lucky not to be sin-binned for a professional foul for taking out Hunt while he was supporting a run by Falou.

That was a sin-bin any day of the week. Folau was one on one with Burt and Hunt would have been up there on the left in support if he wasn't pulled back. Folau even looked inside for the runner before he kicked.

Score should be 22-0.

Eels were better than the scoreline.

 

[Noa]

Eels have really kicked on since Finch left :lol:.

 

[Frank_Grimes]

Eels were better than the scoreline.

No, they weren't. Too many errors, and too many incomplete sets. And too many unimaginative bombs from Keating.

Well done hunt, taking on a rampaging Moi Moi. Not many fullbacks would have attempted a shoulder charge. That was the highlight for me. Lowlight wasnt parramatta, it was matt johns and ben ikin.

Jarrad Hayne has to be moved to fullback the Eels are kidding themselves if they think otherwise. Broncos played with the Eels without every really putting there foot down.

 

[Frank_Grimes]

Not many fullbacks would have attempted a shoulder charge.

And for good reason - it's stupid. The fullback is the last line of defence. A ball and all tackle wrapping up the player is what's required, not a silly shoulder charge that belongs in the defensive line.

 

[benj4]

Gonna be scary for some teams when the Broncos are playing their best.

 

[aussies1st]

Eels aren't looking too bad in attack, Kris Keating is coming along nicely. The defence has fallen to pieces though.

 

[kia ora storm]

So how bad did Parrarabble play tonight ??...sounded pretty ugly.

I think the sin bin is officially dead. (except of course when some ref plucks it out of his arse for some nothing offence).

What will someone need to do to get sent off now? Pull out an Uzi and mow down the defensive line?

 

[Non Terminator]

Might get a warning that.
Bloody hell, what a night that was of football.......

 

[scottyeel]

They are actually playing better and $300k better off.

 

[scottyeel]

Well done Broncos looking really good again this year.
Nice dive by Hodges too.

 

[Chook Norris]

Eels had so many chances..
Hayne 'bombed' 4 trys.. although they were pretty difficult anyway

Eels just played themselves out of the game with errors and poor execution once again

Broncos really were clinical though; funny at the start of the year, people doubted whether their star backline could come into play with the amount of forwards they lost, i think we can put that myth to bed after tonight

How the hell did Hindmarsh not get sent off for his vicious kick to a defenseless Darren Lockyer's face?

10 weeks minimum, IMO.

Only 10?
How many did Merrit get for kicking Reddy in the face?

HAHAHAHA

Did you hear someone use the word vicious during the week, not really know what it meant, and used it anyway?

 

[Noa]

Lol @ the Broncos crowd calling for a knock-on when it CLEARLY came off Burts leg. Dont they know the rules, wheres Kiki when you need her.

If it was Canberra he would have been sent off, they would have been awarded an eight-point try and he'd be gone for 24 months.
