Final refereeing decision matched perfectly to the quality of the match. Piss poor performances made for a piss poor game capped off by a poor decision. Don't think I've watched such a rubbish game of football for years.

To be fair, either side could have been penalised half a dozen times in the golden point period. However the penalty Klown called wasn't one of them.

Seriously Bronco’s fans - I am a neutral supporter but you can’t honestly say that you feel happy about that win. Fair enough your team did incredibly well to compete until the death, but the penalty wasn’t how the game should have ended.

If your guy kicks the field goal - fair is fair, that would be an acceptable result. But to win like that doesn’t feel good, I don’t care what you say.

That goes both ways mate. Yes there were a million chances for a penalty to be blown....Both ways. The Tigers were as far back the 10 as we were, meaning not even close.

It was a shitty way to end it, there's no doubt about that, but your guys weren't even close to being square so that's the end of it.
Your bloke didnt play the ball square...penalty could have gone either way.
Anyway, Broncs in for a hard year it seems. Certainly let the wrong half go.
Tigers attack is uninspiring pig shit but their defence is top shelf. Only two tries conceeded in three games and both were when down to 12 men. Donks had to play against 13 tonight and couldnt crack them.

well that leaves a sour taste in the mouth. but... sadly it would have left me very sore and bitter once upon a time. now im a bit older and wiser it doesnt hurt that much. no im not surprised the broncos got that miracle decision go their way. Surprising would have been to see the tigers get a penalty in gp in any situation let alone that same ruck with the shoe on the other foot. i would love to see a stat of which clubs have received a penalty to decide golden point. i have no idea but im guessing clubs like the tigers, raiders, knights and titans would not feature in such a stat.

They win 1 comp since their inception back in 93 I think it was, they've "won" 3 wooden spoons in that time

We've won 6 comps, no wooden spoons, you could count on 1 hand the number of times we missed the finals

Now you tell me who is the pride of QLD

I didn’t think they were square but am as shocked as anyone they called it in gp. Let’s see how consistent they’ll be moving forward. Hopefully more than they are with random play the ball penalties.

I can’t rewind but I thought second marker definitely ran at Isaako (could be wrong) but agree Richow was square but it looked like he ran off early

I rewound it

The second marker just stands there

Rochow was square

It was the broncos player who turned toward the sideline while playing it
