    PRE-GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    Maybe eventually. I haven't seen him win a game for the Roosters yet. Compare him to Cobbo and Staggs, who looked the goods right off the bat.

    PRE-GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    Yeah I actually had to look at a list to find a suitably forgettable player name, there were a bunch on Broncos debutants on there that I was right to forget - Jordan Drew, Shibasaki, Shitchurch.

    PRE-GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    For the amount he was talked up, Sewer-lee-eee has been very underwhelming. Anyone would have thought he was the next Folau or Inglis, and he's ended up the next Jonus Pearson.

    NEWS “The biggest thing the game has ever had”: Voss declares Walsh the most popular player ever

    Because they only read the headlines. And they are more often than not clickbait and misleading.

    NEWS “The biggest thing the game has ever had”: Voss declares Walsh the most popular player ever

    With Voss's son now emotionally invested in a Broncos player... will Voss tone down his death-riding of us?

    PRE-GAME [Round 9, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

    Teams generally struggle defensively with two halves that are weak defenders. You can hide one, but not two. Keary and Walker are both poor defenders. BUT, you have to have enough possession, and go through the middle first to expose them on the edges. The Roosters leaked points last year...

    NEWS Broncos don't need Walker as future No.7: Reynolds

    "Generational talent"? I hope that's their clumsy way of saying he is the next generation of previous NRL players. Because he is not anywhere near a "once in a generation player" which is the other description they may be meaning.

    NEWS Haas adamant emotions won't take over against Roosters

    But they're certainly going to make orphans of the Roosters' children.

    POST GAME [Round 8, 2024] Broncos vs Wests Tigers

    Arthars', on the other hand, looked to me to have zero separation. There was little control when it was grounded, but zero separation, with the new rules that is a try. But because Journos don't care about the rules, or the truth, especially if it would favour the Broncos, there was no "worst...

    POST GAME [Round 8, 2024] Broncos vs Wests Tigers

    There is no re-gathering, or a regaining of control, just because the hand catches up with it does not constitute control. Yes, it's a tiny bit of separation for a fraction of a second, but it is there nonetheless. If your foot touches a tiny bit of the touchline for a fraction of a second...

    POST GAME [Round 8, 2024] Broncos vs Wests Tigers

    Just remember though that Madden's last few opponents weren't genuine title contenders. His crazy-arse bombs have been great, and he's seemed to improve in other areas, but he hasn't bad a blowtorch applied. How he reacts against a top team, either up or down by 4 points on the scoreboard with...

    Jordan Kahu Toxicity

    I didn't see much of his social media, but the one thing that stuck out for me was when he said he was coming out to address Broncos fans and reveal why he's coming back. Fans like me thought it would be a claim of unfinished business, wanting to prove himself, etc. But he basically came out and...

    Bingo. I don't want to risk Sailor at 6. Either this (Walters at 6), or Rogers.

    Yep. I can definitely see how us fans should consider that a "stake in our hearts" and bemoan the rejection.

    COMPLETE [Round 8, 2024] Broncos vs Wests Tigers

    Was going to say exactly this. I know they don't want to reign in his exuberance, but there's been issues with it all year (forcing low-percentage passes on half breaks) and it doesn't look like he's been pulled up on it. It really worries me if it might become a Latrell situation, where...

    Just a note. Topine's manager is none other than Tyran "best promo video ever" Smith. Not saying his claims are without merit, but his manager is a halfwit.

    CROSS FORUM NRL Round 8 Discussion

    All of the Storm momentum plays come off them deliberately playing the ball off the mark and/or not playing it properly and tunnel-balling. The main culprits of course are the big names, because the refs are just piss scared of blowing the whistle against them. The one time the Rabbitohs tried...

    The fizzler. Every time he got the ball in Origin they all of a sudden lost all enthusiasm and declared the ball would die with him. I don't recall them ever being wrong either, it was late in his career and IIRC he was playing on the wing and he derped it every time.
