So didn’t catch the game, was this a rare legit broncos win or did the refs hand it to us ?

I just can't see Warriors scoring here. This looks like Milford or someone will nab this with a purely solo effort.

Gwt this fella a prize

When does our attack look good?

We've been shit for years. When teams turn up to really defend we don't win. Been that way for awhile.

Well, the last 5 minutes you had no troubles getting to the Broncos end (same in the first half). That is what I meant.

From there you didn't really look like scoring.

the biggest factor was the halves. Milford took his opportunity and our halves were poor.

Really happy with that win, a month ago we would've turned it up and got beat by 30.

Maybe that Seibold bloke isn't so bad after all.

It will be between him and that Brown bloke for coach of the year....said no one ever from a month ago.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Should have had a player in the bin in the first half.

Key call against Maumalo from the touchie in the lead up to Milford's try

Some plain baffling calls in your favour.

We lost because we weren't good enough- but despite the penalty count, the refs helped you home.

Meth I’m not totally disagreeing with you, but the warriors attack tonight was seriously bad. I don’t think those ref calls not occurring would have magically fixed the attack problems.

No, you're completely right. We could have had every call go our way and we still wouldn't have won. So, credit where credit is due- the Broncos deserved the win.

Gotcha. That's Warrior ball though.

We don't really have backs as much as we have battering rams with a little extra pace.

That extra pace helps us to get metres through the middle against opposition forwards.

Once we're inside the 20 our backs need to pretend they're backs and stand out wide.

That leaves the line breaking to our forwards who are only really there to make tackles and take settlers and can't break through a wet paper bag.

Multi-faceted is not a word associated with the Kearney process.

Fantastic win for the Broncos going into the bye, they earnt that.

It’s impressive considering how well the younger guys are playing. Pretty sure I heard during commentary that the broncs were the youngest side in the NRL this week.

I think we were lucky that we caught RTS on a quiet night!!

Yep by a full year, exciting times ahead (I hope)!

 

[Sphagnum]

Just saw the result. Kearney and Arthur should both split a cab to the glue factory.

He's been quiet a bit over the last month

Classic penalty broncos, they lost the count 10-5!
