Qld Cup Brisbane Broncos

[Seagullsrock]

Those North Devil nuffies are into the finals.

None of our players really starred, it was more the Daniel Ogden show.

Said this earlier in season:

Not enough experience for my liking and ordinary halves combination: Correct
The only advantage they have is alot of them have played together: Correct
Burleigh should account for them easily if they have bonded okay: Correct


Not sure what I said wrong????They should have beaten Ippy by plenty today as they were full strength and Ippy a reserve grade team but didn't out them away like they should have. They'd be a handy side if they got an experienced half in there or even someone like Ben Hunt. But as you said, except for a few moments of brilliance from Ogden, they haven't got much organisation in attack.

 

[Seagullsrock]

Not even sure why I'm bothering responding anyway when it's coming from a bloke who rated Wallace ahead of Daly Cherry-Evans.

What Big Pete said:

“We're talking in relation to Wallace, Cherry-Evans has played what? 4 games of first grade and has been solid at best in all 4. Hodkinson has at least put on a couple of good performances here and there and remained very solid and won a few games on the back of his boot.”[FONT=&quot]

Solid at best? Not a bad prediction for a premiership winning halfback and Qld's next halfback. :lol:

[Big Pete]

Look at you getting all sooky.

Oh no I rated Wallace ahead of a 4 game DCE, how can I live with myself. :lol:

Devils have done well to make the finals, didn't think they'd get their either but the 'weak' fringe talent certainly helped them through out the season.

Is Ogden contracted to the Broncos?

 

[Big Pete]

Nope.

Trialled with the side last year but was fairly quiet.

 

[GoTheBroncs]

Seagulls the sentiment behind your original posts were that the side would be too weak to make the finals. Surely you can admit they might have exceeded your expectations just a little... ;-)

Yeah Ogden trialled with the Broncos I believe. He is fast, but you need more than that to play NRL unfortunately.

I was pretty disappointed overall with the Broncos affiliated players today. Gibb was probably the best.

 

[Barker]

I heard Vossy talking about Kurt Baptiste and his rumoured transfer to Newcastle. Apart from the fact that he still has a year to run on his Broncos contract (correct me if I'm wrong), I will be mightily p****d off if the Broncos let him go. :x

 

[ThePearl]

So we looking to offload more players now? Crazy stuff.

I was rating the teams on their Round 1 teams on paper which was about the only thing I could do at that time of the year. They won 1 out of their first 5 games but Hodges has done a good job to get the young group together. As I said, Norths teams of the past with Inglis/Slater etc have made the finals but haven't gone on to seal the deal. I still think they need a few more old heads in there to help the young Broncos out.

 

[Big Pete]

Hissy fits aside, it's good to see 3 Broncos teams represented.

 

[GoTheBroncs]

Norths advance to next round after beating Ipswich. Looks as though Baptiste had a stellar game, and even kicked a 40-20 I read :shock:

Norths now play Wynnum. Redcliffe play Tweed (channel 9 1:15pm Sunday).

All 3 Broncos affiliated teams still in it!

 

[Seagullsrock]

Norths gone. Wynnum play loser of Redcliffe/Tweed for GF berth.

 

[GoTheBroncs]

Pretty good season for Norths, they should be proud. Looks as though they just leak too many points.

Would love to see a Wynnum/Redcliffe final.

 

[GoTheBroncs]

Redcliffe through to the GF after a impressive display.

Among the best were Whitchurch and Berryman.

Redcliffe will play the winner out of Wynnum/Tweed

 

[hellteam]

Go wynnum, a dolphins.seagulls final would pull a great crowd at suncorp

 

[GoTheBroncs]

It's confirmed, a Redcliffe vs Wynnum GF.

Wynnum played very well today, thought Jacob Fauid was the best.

Have a nervous wait as a few people were placed on report. Dodds and Gubb were trying to kill Ryan James.

It's a shame they weren't successful

 

[Big Pete]

Congrats to Seagulls on back to back premierships.

Not exactly the best performance of the year from either side but was an entertaining game.

The Broncos reps. were fairly ordinary for the most part.

 

[unbreaK]

If the Dolphins wanna blame anyone they can blame Whitchurch, I counted 5 knock-on's
