After a few games at the Broncos, they become Queenslanders. :lol:

Have it your way, but seriously no maroon blooded Queenslander would say something like that.

How many "secret new weapons" has the Broncos had over the last five years? How many have lived up to their hype? :roll:

Do the Broncos write what is in the newspapers.

No they don't.

Im not saying they do.

But Broncos is 100% owned by News Ltd and the Courier Mail is 100% owned by News Ltd. But that is not my point.

I'm saying there is so much hype and little results over the years from these "super stars of the future!".

It's a mistake of grammer not spelling and I don't give a shit. I'm Australian, I follow Rugby League, take it easy, winning wars and butchering the English language is a passionate hobby.

But truth is most Queenslanders barely consider the Broncos to be Queenslanders!

How would you know?Judging by your posts,with constant sniping at all things Broncos and paranoid comments regarding the arl war of last century,you are a classic bandwagoner from nsw.Gould and Anderson would be proud of your white-anting.

HAHAHA shows what you know buddy. There was Rugby League in Queensland 70 years before the Broncos came to town, and it is there that my loyalty lies. You can't be stupid enough to not realise there is a traditionalist faction in Queensland which hate the Broncos and what they have dont to Rugby League in Queensland and want proper representation?

Do you think it's all Broncos Broncos Broncos? Hahaha And if you don't go for the Broncos you are on the Phillip St pay roll?

You have been listening to too much old school Broncos spin doctoring!

FACT : MORE PEOPLE HATE THE BRONCOS THAN LIKE THE BRONCOS IN BRISBANE (Not focusing on the players, I love most of the players.)

The Broncos have to recruit outside of QLD every now and then otherwise we lose all our players at SOO time. The QLD Cup bloods plenty of players, with Newcastle the latest club to gain a future Qld rep.

How can you like the Broncos players and not the club, superleague was ages ago, surely it is time to let bygons be bygons, the club can't apologise forever about it.

If doubt there are more people in Brisbane who hate the Broncos than follow them, I would be seriously dissappointed if there were, I think there are a lot of people who follow other clubs, but I don't think that means they hate the Broncos, the Broncos are good for Qld.

As a League supporter I don't hate other teams just because they were alligned with superleague or the ARL, I just wish people would follow a team and forget about the politics.

Hmmm... Secret weapons...

Here's my prediction:

After Willie Peters breaks both his ankles in a freak washing machine accident, Paul Langmack announces his secret weapon... Craig Field to play at halfback. Craig owed a favour to Langmack when they were both at the Tigers, so Craig agrees to play for Souths on an 'incentive' contract.

What about:

Shaun ata (Penrith Panthers)

Blimmin' heck. Another Kiwi.

Utai, Meli, Hunt, Williams:-

All these other young kids coming through, Tupou, Vatuvei. Part of Daniel Anderson's success in putting together development structures for New Zealand Rugby League paying off?

Who cares where the Broncos recruit players from?

The Warriors are of New Zealand but our squad includes:- Matt Jobson of Newcastle, Danny Sullivan of Parramatta, Richard Villasanti of the darkside, PJ Marsh out of Gladstone/Parramatta, Tony Martin out of Gladstone/Melbourne, Brent Webb out of North Queensland as well as soon to be ex Warriors Justin Murphy and Mark Tookey.

You have to shore up your ranks, any club not shoring up their ranks with top outsiders is asking for trouble. Obviously some clubs go overboard (Roosters cough), I don't believe Brisbane have. They're just taking advantage of their talent identification strengths.

I agree, clubs should send out more talent counts and identify potential signings rather than whinge that other clubs are being proactive.

So you have no loyalty to the Broncos,you hate the Broncos for what their entry into the nswrl comp did to the Brisbane/QLD comp and you bag the Broncos at every opportunity, thats fair enough.
However,when the Broncos are successful,you seem to jump straight on the bandwagon cheering and gloating.
Were you a brothers supporter?

Who the hell says I bag them then jump on the fing band wagon, stop making shit up. I despise them for what they did and their arrogance. How they killed the Crushers. I believe they have done more harm than good to Queensland Rugby League. They are a franchise and not a club. But I was a diehard Broncos fan up until 1999. But I do love some of the players and I am a big Wayne Bennett fan.

There is only one god damn representative of top rugby league in the south east. I support the Broncos in such ways as, going to all their games. I want them to get good crowds. I do want them to be successful. Because its good for their crowds and appeal.

I certianly dont want the Broncos to die. They have their place. I want a rival 2nd club that all of us who dont want to support the Broncos can support. Preferably one that doesnt change their colours, jersey, logo, home ground and which competition it decides to play in annually.

But for now the Broncos are the only team in town. And for that reason they will have my support. You will never see me, like some alleged league fans, go have a cry and start going to Lions games.

The last time I went to the Gabba was to watch a greyhound race.

I wonder if this Bronco find will be as good as that Learoyd bloke they showed us last week...... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
The Bloke will come good, but the problem is he's not ready yet, he went from schoolboy footy to 1st grade after only one game of Qld cup, thats like flying a romote contol plane then trying to fly a 747 two weeks later.

Anything here sound familiar?
"Screw them.They are just a corporation not a club.I've had a gutfull.
Even the Brisbane lions seem like a more interesting "club" to follow".

"Thats it,bring in a 2nd Brissie team,I and everyone else is sick of this shit"

"No wonder the Broncos have no identity or presence,they change every year.
Compare the Broncos to the lions".

Then,after the Broncos first win,we have...
"GO THE MIGHTY BRONCOS!!!!!!!!!"

Who the hell says I bag them then jump on the fing bandwagon?
You the hell do.
I also liked the Crushers reference.
You were a brothers supporter weren't you?

The Broncos have no identify, they change at a drop of a hat. Hence I can only have affection for the players and coach. I said I still support the Broncos and I was very very pleased at the crowd in round 1, the fact we won and broke our duck and the fact we beat the New Zealand Warriors because I hate kiwis.

GO THE MIGHTY BRONCOS!

They are the only RL club in Brisbane to support, their success has a major effect on the success of Rugby League in Brisbane and Queensland.

The Lions as a club, leave the Broncos for dead. Football club membership, traditional colours and jerseys that will endure. It's very attractive, if they were a rugby league team. I'd support them.

No I was never a Brothers supporter. The Broncos success is key to the success of Rugby League in Brisbane and the battle against Union and AFL incursions. I also still hold affection to Lang Park, the traditional home of RL and the players and coach. And for those reasons the Broncos are still one of my teams.
