Have to laugh at this line on the courier mail website today regarding Barba possibly switching to 5/8:
"Transforming a star fullback into a match-winning five-eighth is old hat at the Broncos, following Lockyer’s seamless transition."
That from the paper that, for over a year when it...
Re: Broncos circa 2004 - 2013
Agreed, I take most professional sport with a grain of salt but that 2008 loss was the most devastating ever, made even worse by seeing how gutted Lockyer was straight after the game. We beat the Storm, we win that premiership imo.
Re: Bronco's Media Conference today at 10.15
there's no room on the captain's wall at Broncos Leagues for one captain let alone two, so perhaps they should just give it to Parker and leave it at that. :P
Re: Josh Hoffman, to the principles office!
who cares what he said or did. If he doesn't want to play he can sit on the sidelines for the year. If they think he can contribute then put him in the team.
I doubt Raiders will agree to release Milford particularly if we hold on to Hoffman. Only way I can see us getting Milford in 2014 is if we offer Hoffman to the Raiders as a straight swap...

open word, pick two gradient colours, click top right to bottom left. import a picture, slap it on top and you have that jersey. genius.
meanwhile can we please get rid of those mannequins with the bung shoulder.
I'd like to see the following:
- matches reduced to 70 minutes (two x 35 minute halves) however with time off for all stoppages. The shot clocks surrounding scrums, goal line drop outs etc should remain so that teams can't drag the chain. I am sick of seeing games at 78:00 on the clock when...
That history spiel could do with a screenshot of lal's BHQ site in all its geocities/homestead designed glory.
meanwhile I haven't even bothered playing any fantasy league games since VNRL stopped, none of them compare really.
Their coverage of the 2004 final where they gave it to Hodges and Walker for the entire game was one of the funniest things I've ever heard. I wish these were downloadable somewhere.
Their commentating of the ear biting incident in last year's grand final was hilarious too.
Here is the winning design... a decent jersey although it seems to indicate that Broncos fans do in fact prefer plain jersey designs.
