A weakened Bennett coached Broncos can beat a very under performing Warriors side.

Broncos by 8. I'll never forget the baby Broncos beating the Panthers about 6 years ago. Bloody embarrassing.

Warriors pack still looks ordinary. All Broncos have to do is put in for 80 minutes up front and they give themselves every chance of winning.

This Warriors team can lose to anybody.

Although lol at Broncos fans complaining about scheduling. That one was good.

6 years ago?

2011? The Broncos barely beat Penrith early in the season, and in the return game Michael Gordon carved the Broncos up. That happened to be on the same day Gus signed on for the Panthers, so it was a joyous day for your club.

The Panthers have a very decent record against the Broncos.

Believe it or not, but the game you're referring to happened 10 years ago. I remember it well because the Panthers had Liam Georgetown and John Nuumaalii play for them, so obviously your side wasn't doing too crash hot themselves.

If it's any consolation, in one of the worst seasons for the Broncos, that was one of the better wins the club had and it still had nothing on that crazy Round 3 Golden Point game. It took me years to forgive Boyd for that Wesser try...

Where were we?

Ah yes, Warriors v Broncos. With Mannering back, it's the Warriors game to lose. Johnson should be too strong for Marshall and I'm curious to see how Benji & Moga go trying to shut down SJ & Fusitua.

The broncos without that fat wanker Thirdman and Jimmy the Drunk will be watchable for the first time this year.

Memory jog. Pretty sure I was at that game. Was it the one where Panthers scored a couple of late tries to take it into extra time and then Wallace nailed a field goal? 23-22 or something like that.

According to our good mates @Azkarato & @madunit on Rugby League Project it was 29-28. Brisbane had the ball deep inside the Panthers half when Hodgo (who equaled a club record with 4 tries) tried to grubber for himself and it came off the legs of Michael Jennings who in his second game of top grade raced 90m to score. While the refs reviewed the play, Gordon set up his kick, so as soon as they awarded the try, he took his shot which I thought was pretty smart on his behalf.

I was at the game as well and just couldn't believe it, up to that point, I had never seen the Broncos choke so hard in my life.

That's the one. I remembered the Jennings try. Was in the Broncos members stand and they were none too pleased.

The point of his post is that he cares and nobody cares about your level of care, rendering you post worthless.

Reiterating you don't care is irrelevant to what he said.

Got a bit of a glimpse in the 20s from Richie Barnett of what to expect from Darryl and co later on tonight.

The warriors are 15 metres out with a full set of six and a bronco just sent to the sinbin. Mr Barnett:

'This is a great opportunity for the warriors'.

Not sure who the main kiwi commentator is in the 20s but he's dead set supporting the broncos, even cheering when they score.
