Ha ha didn’t realise Mahoney and Drown were experienced plodders........playing 2 rookies in your spine is a bigger call then picking a rookie middle forward to play 15/20 mins.

BA has no problems picking rookies .....
Would Brown be playing if the club didn’t sack Norman??? He didn’t want him to leave if you listen to some people.

And how much game time would Mahoney be getting if his favourite plodder Kaysa didn’t fjnally break??? He plays them because we have no one else, it’s literally Will Smith so yes he has to play them.

We need a line break threat in the middle. Gutherson is too slow. I would like to see Ferguson spend more time in the middle.

On another note Jennings has lost all pop. If he gets a contract for next year it should factor that in $300 maximum.

2018???? He offered SFA tonight, his was left on the ruck tonight time and time again. He doesn’t look up to the pace of NRL atm.

Obviously he wound up starting but he made more metres than the three other reserves combined, with two breaks in the first half.

He's struggled with the extra weight this year but there's no doubt the dude is a top 17 player....and now cue the muppets accusing me of calling him a star or whatever.

Commentators have to suck the Broncos dick, they do every year and the Seibold going there was always going to give them a hard on.

They have been shit this year, with the exception of a few games and tonight was not one of them. Like i said in another post, they have Haas and Fafita, that is it and who ultimately won the game for them? Outside of those 2 they are worse than us.

There was a period earlier in the year where arm grabbing was a real problem for us and we fixed it for a while, it has been back with a vengeance the last few week, we simply do not like the collision of the game.

I am seriously fearful of next weeks game, especially if Manly win this week and they have a shot at the top 4........we could be severely embarrassed at home!

This so called poor broncos side also defeated a fairly full strength manly and roosters side at home this year.....

They have been pretty competitive most weeks.

Lol have another rum mate, Haas and Fifita are four times as good as any of our juniors.
To put it in perspective the Broncos consider them the best forwards coming through since Webcke and Civoniceva.

He just looks off the pace atm Baz, he made a couple of decent runs off the back off good runs from others. Last’s tears version was twice the player.

I genuinely believe Payne Haas will be the best prop any of us have ever seen.

Who the f**k regularly makes 150m+ and 35+ tackles at his age??

Agree he was much better last year but he's certainly been better after his stint at Wenty.

And definitely offers more than most of the other bench options

Well if you listen to people he wanted to pick Drown last year even when Norman was here but was prevented .......,

Additionally he picked Mahoney in front of Pritchard/smith and king towards the end of last year!

Keep trying but....

Next you will be telling us Sivo would still be playing 2nds if Gennings hadn't of been injured to start the season?
Come on Hiney. Fair suck of the sav mate.

I am glad you can stay positive, i just can't and i haven't been impressed with the Broncos much this year like i said outside of a few exceptions and you probably just named them.

Just like the dogs last week, we were beaten by a side that are below us for a reason and we didn't turn up for enough of the matches, both games were there for the taking and we failed with poor errors and lack of respect.

Haas and Fafita, that is all the Broncos have imo. The rest of the team is average and those 2 make up for most of the other guys.

I do truly love your optimism though, your head is probably a much better place to be than mine.......who am i kidding, your head IS a much better place to be than mine. My weekend is completely ruined and i'm already having a panic attack about having to face people tomorrow.

If BA has taught us anything, your three options when facing people are to:

1. not talk to them
2. tell them to get f**ked
3. f**k their eyes

Dude, as a man that has savagely struggled with anxiety to the point of being hospitalised and losing 15kg in a month at one point....see somebody.

Haha what?

Cleary is 21 and has 80 NRL games and 5 Origin games

Brown is 19 and has 12 NRL games.

LMAO


Guys like you and Gronk bag Cleary for being gunk. He is 21. Has he peaked?
D.Brown may become a superstar. But dont fall into the trap of commentator hype. He may also flop. I reckon he might develop into a good player. I havent seen the silky skill and class that A.Johns masturbates over.
