Broncos were already out.

Interesting, I didn't know the WIN feed had the 10m constantly on screen. Or are you just talking s**t?

Not constantly but on the occasions where you could see them, half the broncos team were 1-2m in front of the ref. Its not rocket science champ. Simply reporting what i see

7-2 penalty count... i could argue against the 2 penalties on Picker (one was a well milked penalty, kudos to the Broncos player for that, and the other a very soft flop penalty, i think the bronco player would have every right to up and go if Picker doesnt come in to complete it) but most were fair against us, but there is no way that Brisbane only transgressed twice in that game

The referees clearly helped the Broncos last night, but you know you'll get that playing away. It happens at every game because ref's haven't got the balls to call it how they see it, they assume a boo from the crowd means there is something they have missed.

BUT.......Stoked the Raiders won. We played pretty bloody poor football and still managed to win. Hopefully that's out of our system now.

No real surprises from this match. Anyone expecting the Broncos to get up by 15+ without Lockyer and more importantly the youth in their side would've been kidding themselves.

The Broncos turned up with the right attitude I must say, credit to Peter Wallace who I thought was generally good playing 2nd receiver. Their attack had nothing in it but what can you expect when your main playmaker is out and the second playmaker being hurt.

The Raiders attacking kicks were good but their general kicks in play were poor. One thing that impressed me though was their scrambling defence, that's what wins finals matches.

There was one occasion toward the end where the Broncos halfback put up a highball and the chasers either side of him were clearly a meter ahead of him. Both those chasers ended up right in Reece Robinson's face, luckily Robinson managed to take it cleanly.

The officials were terrible in relation to offside play last night.

I'm not one to usually have a dig at officials but it's fair to say that the Broncos got some help last night.

We weren't our best last night. Hopefully the boys take it up a notch next week.

While the Referees were clearly favoring the Broncos, even as a Raiders fan, I noticed 3-4 blatant Raiders forward passes let go...
