Has there been a better afternoon then that at the footy.

Only winning a premiership would top it i reckon.

What a glorious afternoon it was.

when was the last game we had such a commanding lead at half time?

it was one of the rare times I sat back and put my feet up and thoroughly enjoyed a second half without any stress.

Someone told me at halftime lining up at the toilets gee Moses missing those goals might come back and haunt us.

I said your kidding Brisbane are cooked they couldn't even get it past the 30m line,

We bashed them for 80 mins and never relented its the most ruthless performance i have seen Parra produce in my life.

I cannot blame the man for his pessimism.

Anything is possible tonight. Hopefully we come away with a good performance and get the 2 points, but I suspect the Broncos might be just a bit too good at home.

Round 25, 2007 v Brisbane, was quite enjoyable....sunny Sunday afo....Broncos started strong, to lead 16 to 6 after 15 or so mins before we put on a show.....to win 68 to 22....
A bronco drops the ball over the line Brisbane would have gone up 22-6.

Then all of sudden we scored 5 tries and it was 34-16 by HT.

If we didn't hand out token goal kicking duties to Tahu and a few others we would have hit 70

One of my favourite games ever.

If I recall correctly, someone passed back inside to Hayne, who was hitting a gap, the pass was low, so he kneed it up to himself without even breaking stride, before cruising over for the try.

I remember this game in that I was away on the Goldy on a family holiday and didn’t get to see it. Was probably the only game I missed all year and they do that lol!
