Worst halves pairing currently in the NRL.
Worst Broncos side ever.

 

[Kaiden]

First time we've ever been held scoreless on two occasions in the one season!

 

[Dazzat]

Liam Georgetown, Delroy Berryman, Denan Kemp, Wayne Swan ... anyone but Maranta.

Fair dinkum ... I am yet to see him play one good game, but how many has he played?

Case in point ... wingers don't win you too many games on their own, but tonight demonstrated a winger can lose you a game. And Bellamy knew it as well.

Hodges was pretty terrible actually, but okay.

Our forwards were good for about 50 minutes, but after all the disappointment from bombed tries, they just went to pieces along with our halves and outside backs.

What game were you watching? Hodges was our best on ground easily.

 

[Spot On]

Possibly the worst Broncos side ever????

Let's just throw that team out there next week and see what happens, it can't be any worse than this team of merkins we're fielding at the moment.

Just feel sorry for the boys in the end.

They had nothing left in the tank after the Warriors game and when Maranta was denied what was a legitimate try it basically killed any will they had left. Ultimately, Melbourne are too good a side and their class players killed us but boy we were desperately unlucky.

I really felt bad for Hoffman too. That effort just summed the night up for us I thought it. He had it but the bounce was just too cruel for him.

Easily. We're a three man team, Hodges, Parker and Hoffman.

 

[Big Pete]

UnBreak, you and I both know that team isn't going to be named for a variety of reasons.

No origin players next week.

Well that was painful to watch.
Funny, I was thinking all game, "This is the worst Broncos team ever."
I see I'm not the only one.

 

[Dazzat]

Prince and Wallace were very good last week.

Tonight they had no room to work at all ... our go-forward was terrible apart from McGuire.

 

[Dazzat]

No origin players next week.

It's going to get ugly. 2013 is a write-off.

Can't see Griffin coaching next year.

It's going to get ugly. 2013 is a write-off.

Can't see Griffin coaching next year.

At this stage I'd say 2014 is a write-off as well, no good talent off-contract.

 

[Ghoulies]

What game were you watching? Hodges was our best on ground easily.

Yeah that was a bit harsh.

It's clear that he feels he needs to get as involved as he does because we're just not going to make anything happen through structured play, which is probably true, but all of those aimless dummy half runs and errors did not contribute to a good performance.

 

[some11]

I've got nothing.

Give a monkey a typewriter and eventually it'll type a word. Tonight they just typed np8od2y3pn0=UDI]SJD[0 repeatedly though.

Norman and Maranta need to be dropped..they were absolutely pathetic..Kahu fullback, Kemp or Tasi Tasi(I'd take Stuart Kelly on the wing over Maranta).. Oates seemed solid in defense, would love to see more of him.

 

[unbreaK]

UnBreak, you and I both know that team isn't going to be named for a variety of reasons.

If I remove the origin players, I think it would be the best Broncos team fielded this year, youth, enthusiasm.. Yow Yeh on 1.5 legs is worth 3 Maranta's, Kahu is returning from injury next week, Baptiste is crushing QCUP, Hunt hasn't had a proper crack at the starting position without the terribles breathing down his neck, Taylor has promise and won't be any worse than Prince was tonight, as long as he can keep the ball in the field of play..

Please tell me what we stand to gain from persisting with the team we have, ESPECIALLY Norman, Maranta, Prince.. special mention to Wallace and McCullough who are surely on their last legs as well.

 

[Big Pete]

No origin players next week.

There's one reason.

 

[Smiley]

Such a boring and slow team. Very little variation in attack.
