Bronco are playing crazy good. Not even this Storm side will get any where near them. Broncos by 38-18.

I know the Storm own the broncos but surprised at the odds. Think Brisbane get this done and may do it fairly easily.

Don't kid yourselves boys. Bellyache just about threatens his players with death if they look like losing to us. He will have them sweating bullets during the week.

The Broncos finally having to travel south of the Queensland border for once..
Pretty dumb comment.

PeNriTh have left NSW twice. But you’d barely count the first time - the huge and exhausting trip to Canberra. I hope they didn’t have to walk.

They were also pretty lucky to draw the Warriors in Brisbane. You’d take a 90 minute flight to Brisbane over a 3 hour flight to Auckland, wouldn’t you?

This week you’re at home. We’ll have gone to Darwin, Sydney and Melbourne - which I’m not saying is difficult at all, but I don’t think your comment was just a fart. You shit ya self!

No adversity mentioned, mate. Suncorp had to be used a lot in the first half of the year because it’s locked from rounds 18-26.

Travel is not my point it’s the atmosphere at the games you avoid having to play truly away. Broncos got to play Dolphins and Manly ‘away games’ in reality at home with most of the support behind them. For a very talented but also young team that’s quite a bonus. They did have to go to Penrith to start but at a good time when we were fresh off a WCC loss. I fear we’re partly to blame for your good start as well..

Playing in Darwin was also a bonus for the Broncos as the Eels are worse there than at Parramatta.
Later they will also play Souths ‘away’ from home on the Sunshine Coast and probably have most of the support as well.

I do realise that they have fewer home games later on but they’ve still had a good early draw with few true away games. If they can go to Melbourne and beat their hoodoo team I’ll have to applaud them though.

The PENRITH obsession with the Broncos is weird.
Anyone would think they lost 2 grand finals against them, lost their place to them as one of the elite clubs in the competition, were forced into a joint venture due to their super league shenanigans and got told they can't play by one of their players.

Your point was travel.
