ahhh feck, the broncos smell suspiciously like post origin hang over :(

[brissyleaguedude]

Not much to say, except, with a loss to the dogs, a very close win over the raiders and a lost to the eagles, it would appear the origin hangover has decided to rear its ugly head. How does this keep happening? Bennet apparantly gave all his origin players heaps of time off over the period, i just cant understand it. I dont want ANOTHER year of f**king lacklustre finals performances. WB, fix it please.

Something tells me things aren't going to get any better with you lot facing St George next week.

 

[Sun_Down]

So danm frustrating...

 

[scottyeel]

I agree, they haven't looked real dangerous the last few weeks. If they aren't pumped up for next week then i think they are in real trouble.

The sad thing is that Lockyer is coming into form after a lean trot, it's just the guys around him are just giving him nothing at the moment. For most of that second half the forwards were no where to be seen when the ball was ready to be taken up and everyone was bunched behind the play the ball, Lockyer isn't a miracle man, he can't work with that kind of rubbish.

We had a very minimal amount of players involved in this years Origin, it's time to stop make excuses, if Bennett doesn't give the guys a bollocking at training this week and tells them to start aiming up then I give in.

It doesn't seem to matter whether or not guys like Webckle retire from orgin or not. Same result.

 

[Timmah]

Fridge'n'A'Freezer is important to them as well - and he was missing wasn't he?

 

[salivor]

Civoniceva was out and to make matters worse Bennett omitted Thaiday from the bench leaving us with only one prop in Parker. Manly didn't even play a 5/8, they came ready for a forward struggle and we go in with Webcke, Carlaw and Parker as our only front rowers, go figure.

 

[Wristy McSlashalot]

If they lose next week against St. George then I'll be really nervous about heading into the finals.

 

[Sea_Eagles_Rock]

Brisbane Burntouts have returned. I've been saying the wobbles have been there the last few weeks. But look at it fairly. That was a great game of footy...

Manly should have Heckenberg and Watmough back for the next match.

 

[Bullrider]

Wait till Berrigan comes back. He is one of the most important parts of the Broncos team. The hooking is absolute sh*t. But Barnes is showing a bit but is still young.

 

[brissyleaguedude]

thats also right, they DIDNT HAVE MANY f**kING PLAYING ORIGIN. I just dont know why this happens, DAM BRONCOS. I know some fans, and justifiably so will go 'ur still goin good stop winging'. But if we play like this in the finals, we have NO CHANCE, as opposed to other teams. Others, on their day, may have a chance in the GF, but the broncos, when they are like this, are just bloody dead wood. COMON FELLAS FFS.

 

[brokendigit]

Beware the beaten Broncos... For as long as they've been in the Comp, I've HATED playing the Broncos after a loss...

 

[SHD]

We're well past origin, i'd say it's less origin hangover and more traditional end of season slump for Brisbane.
Brokendigit makes a good point. They'll be hurting. We'll be confident. It will be good. Friday excites me.

 

[Coaster]

It was just a piss poor performance from the Broncos today(fullstop)


Im a Lockyer fan, but that was the worst i have ever seen him play in a game of football since his test debut.

I cant remeber them even kicking the ball once in the second half except on the second tacle with 30 seconds to go:evil:

Pathetic game from them, i expect a massive turn around next week, like after the Melbourne nightmmare.

 

[Renowned League Expert]

I think we've probably seen the best of Brisbane this season. They'll probably still make the grand final by default, but they'll be cannon-fodder for St George in the grand final. Canterbury the only other chance.

 

[Coaster]

Not sure if you have noticed, but Broncos know how to win GF's against StG

And the same players from 1992-3 will be taking part in this year's grand final? Wow. I didn't realise. Can;t wait to see the Pearl in action again!

What a ridiculous thing to say.:roll:

 

[Cheesie-the-Pirate]

Friday excites me.

Whilst Eels - Bulldogs will be interesting, personally I'm looking forward to Sunday and Broncos - Dragons more!
