First month of football is generally a period of finding match fitness.

I'll wait for the rest of the round to complete before making my judgement.

But some certain aspects of the Sharks game has not been professional enough.

Not fully capitilising on the Broncos errors,were as the Broncos are taking everything in stride when opportunities are given to them.
Congrats Brisbane. Reigning round 1 premiers.

No one cares who wins games in the first 4 rounds.

Broncos won 8 or 9 out of first 10 last year. How did that help??

Gronkos pretty comfortably the better team. Mitford and Thaiday probably best on ground.

it was a question? Who? I missed who they were talking about

But yeah broncos don't own Suncorp stadium, the trust can do what they want
Oh,ok. Well,if you weren't in Brisbane and got news about 15 other teams you'd know Brookvale oval is now tagged as lotto land stadium.

Broncos win with 16 against a better pack.

Sharks premiership hangover is in effect.

Thought the Broncos were a bit hard done by the refs in that one. Might have stopped them from racking up a bit more of a score.

Good game to start the season off

Scrappy affair but both teams showed a lot to build on. Its round 1. Not many teams start off at their best.

Broncos need to work on finishing sets though. So many horrible kicks were just lucky to get an extreme unlikely result in their favor. You can't get that luck every week.

Moga looks good. Very powerful. I hope he stays fit. I remember the hype around him. Would be nice if he could reach his potential. Even if its for a shit team.

We get news on 1.5 teams, 1 on Brisbane and a quarter of cowboys and a quarter of Titans unfortunately

What gay name by a dodgy company, they are a betting agency for f**k sake masking as a lottery company, once someone wins a jackpot off them their insurance premium goes up and they go bankrupt

We've been doing it for years, lol.. Hunt is easily the worst last play kicking option in the league, that's why I fear for the Dragons when he goes there

Yeah I don't know about you but I too was expecting a crisp, clean, faultless performance from both sides in Round 1.

If you don't know about me then how can "you too" expect something as if we share similar thoughts right after you just stated you don't know what my thoughts are?

Odd.

Good start to the year. Sharks missed Holmes and Barba badly

And Ennis also missing...captain Ennis who was all so serious right before kick-off. :)

Hopefully for the Sharks fans,that will be the last time he makes an appearance.

Seggy can't get there quick enough.

Gambling....insurance.....both kind of up the same alley. No experience with gambling companies but from what I hear they are happy to pay up when they have to.

Nobody expected a clean clinical performance, from either side. To suggest otherwise makes you look stupid.

You were moaning because we seen 2 sides obviously well below their best, what did you expect? It's Round f**king one.

I really hope R20 was watching Ch 9 tonight. Rabs and Gus gave Matt Chechin one of the biggest raps I've ever heard given to a referee. I can just see the steam coming out of R20's ears after that :D

Where did i say i expected it, where did i even specify my concerns? My post was too vague for you to gain any real insight into my thoughts or what i expected. Those were your own assumptions.

Not everything that happens in round 1 can be attributed to round 1 rust, to suggest otherwise at the first sign of vague criticism makes you look assuming and ignorant.
