[Vic Mackey]

Don’t the storm usually belt the broncos up there? Can’t see them losing 2 in a row. Melbourne by 18.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Brisbane won't let it blow out but the scum always beat us up here. There's really only one way to tip.

 

[moffla]

Haven’t lost against Broncos at Suncorp in a decade, and we are coming off a loss...sounds like this can only go one way, but I do have a feeling we will have a few shaky games before hitting form pre-finals

 

[Phil McGrawhan]

You don't want to play the storm after a loss
They make amends. Big time

 

[GongPanther]

Brisbane comfortably by 14. Storm no steam after Manly game.

 

[JW]

Beating Melbourne is an anomaly for us, even moreso at home.

This is one game we write off for sure each year, no matter how good or bad we're going. No reason to think any different for this one.

As always, it's a question of whether we'll end up competing or not.

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

Melbourne overrated

Brisbane bi 10 bogan haircuts

 

[gerg]

Is this the first Broncos game for Sutton this year?

 

[footy75]

Huge game for Brisbane.

Lock them in for finals if they can win this.

 

[pantherz9103]

It seems like a physical impossibility for Broncos to beat the Storm at Suncorp. Storm by 18.

 

[some11]

Storm always take this game personally for some reason. They're f**king unbeatable at Suncorp.

Storm always take this game personally for some reason. They're f**king unbeatable at Suncorp.

Just so much adversity

As always, it's a question of whether we'll end up competing or not.

Aside from a few seasons a few years ago were we snagged a win, the trend seems to be one solid, competitive effort resulting in a loss and then an absolute spanking.

And in round 1 we kept it somewhat close already.

 

[some11]

Just so much adversity

They're on a nine game winning streak against the Cowboys, they love crushing them too.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Melbourne by a “billy slater field goal attempt that was actually a drop kick to himself and score”. Gross.

 

[isaiah]

Brisbane comfortably by 14. Storm no steam after Manly game.

This

 

[isaiah]

One of these teams has the best pack including their bench in the comp. The other team is the storm.

 

[lockyno1]

Storm easily

Melbourne by 3 Cam Smith contracts
