2017 Semi Final, Fri - Broncos 13-6 Panthers @ Suncorp

Wonder if broncos laying in the ruck and being 2 m offside all night stifled our attack?

Peachey knocking the ball on certainly stifled Manly's attack

Nah I think the lack of video ref involvement had more to do with it

 

[Surely]

Him and Merrin are cancer

Yeah Cartwright selected ahead of Moylan.

Good call by gus lol

 

[Pedge1971]

Because they play too many games in Sydney, easily the biggest attendance at a game thus far in the 2017 finals

Pretty disappointing that they could not sell out though? Not trolling but for last game of the year in Brissy wouldnt u expect more?

 

[AlwaysGreen]

The bloke who should be moved on is Griffin.

Moylan is a joke, how the captain of the side doesn't play the finals when being fully fit bewilders me, why would you ever want him at your club

Playing against Penrith? Hardly. A Prelim final against a top 4 side would be a sellout.

Why not both?

That you can comment on someone's health so definitely bewilders me.

The Blue Mountains need their own "Hollywood" style sign but with "Hypocrites" instead

Awesome defence from the drongos. Even if they were offside for a good deal of the second half.

The creeping effect worked: awful & i mean truly awful one week & turn it around based on defence.

The creeping jesus tried & true tactic for many years.

The pennies had enough ball (especially in the drongos 20) to win 3 games but lacked the end-of-set polish to beat a really committed defence.


Depending on injuries, the drongos can give the storm a decent game.

 

[pantherz9103]

An in form Moylan and we could have snared it, but he was on personal leave ffs and we had to try to open up an on song defence with a 19 y.o. half and a hacks like Cartwright and Wallace.

So because the team is poorly coached by Griffin and can't beat the top teams I can accept them going out, however if the Broncos win the comp this year, I might give the game away.... When they won in 2006 I almost did...

Jesus. This is a pretty f**king low comment.

Why? he's not mentally ill, it's a football issue, nothing to do with depression or any of that shit

 

[Tweed Titan]

Him and Merrin are cancer

Hmm I'm not that quick, I know what will work, a chip and chase!

Mentally geniused

 

[Pedge1971]

Yeah, I won't be getting to devastated over us going out. Certainly not a contender anyway. Griffin sucks.

This does seem a slightly different reaction to the losing fans in Manly and the shire last week. And there were plenty of 50/50 calls go the way of the News Ltd Donkeys. Go figure.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Cleary is lucky he's the Golden Boy because he's the leader of the worst 'red zone' attack in the comp but esacpes without any scrutiny.

A very good young player but I've yet to see if he can ball play.

That'll determine if he becomes a great player.

 

[Barkley]

Samuel L has more coolness in one of his farts than you have in your entire body, shut up

That's actually true. But anyone that says"coolness" is clearly a 40yo virgin....keep pounding that Darius doll...I'll vote 'yes' for you.

50/50 doesn't compare to the 10/90 Penrith got last week

“I don’t know how many times I can say it. Matt’s on a medical program and that’s where he’ll be. His counselling takes precedence over football, it’s as simple as that," Panthers general manager Phil Gould said on Wide World of Sports' Six Tackles with Gus podcast.
