Prediction. Roosters will make plenty of easy yards up the middle and Pearce will play with plenty of time and confidence. Expect heaps of well placed well contested bombs and a fair few Rooster restarts of course. Broncos will pretty...

I have respect for Maguires efforts but I have always had my doubts classifying him as a top line front rower. He simply does not have the size. The same could be said about Blair. We seem to have a pack of predicable workhorses. We really need at least two forwards who can dominate. But I...

Let's be honest , the signs of our true form have been clearly on display for the last six weeks. Those flogggings by Cronulla,Melbourne and the Bulldogs and Warriors were no aberration . The good sides are just too good for us . I don't care what anyone says including Bennett , if our...

I think Hunt summed up that performance well "a step in the right direction". Hunt , himself, looked pretty sharp last night. I din't usually like being too negative after a win , but in the second half our defensive line look nearly stationary at times. Quite frankly the guys looked...

How about even Andrew Johns pointing out the ridiculous biased refereeing ? Got zero support from Gus or Warren of course. I just don't get it. I mean do the refs actually have instructions before the game or what? It was a bit like going back to the days when Quale and Arthurson ran the...

I will pay the last NSW try , but as for the rest of the game Qld were pretty much robbed. Anyway it will be good motivation for game one next year . You got to love origin. Nothing competes with it.

Sad to say I think thee is a fair chance we wont even make the eight. I don't quite see where the confidence is coming from to even win half these games. We have just come off two floggings. WB seems to be persisting with the slow line speed tactic which is clearly not working. Our attack...

A few points: iIt is nearly impossible maintain the grinding style of football the Broncos play. Sooner or later the players just run out of energy or enthusiasm for it. In truth , we nearly grinded our way to a premiership last year, but it is just wearing the boys out now. Our poor line...

We could really do with a big fast Fijian winger. Surly there are more where Vunilalu came from.

Tiime to stat thinking about year. That was a dose of reality.

We are giving up too many easy meters. The dogs seemed to have some sort of shot at our line nearly every set of six. We don't seem to have the go forward in the forwards to return serve. Also , we didn't look that threatening when we did have a shot at their line. All in all we are...

I do not agree with the barage of criticism that is being heaped on the Blues from the likes of Gould , Geyer and even Fatty Vautin. Every man and his dog seems have a theory of what they did wrong. In reality they did not do much wrong at all and could have easily been on the winning side of...

I was at the Leeds game. A Wally Masterclass.

Our defence was great again. Really hard low tackling , especially from Sam and Corey Parker.We are seeing JT at the peak of his powers.. He and our kick ass defence are really what sets the teams.apart.The refs should issued with baby dummies to stick in Greg Birds mouth when gets really...

Whether Wade Graham plays or not does not really matter. NSW have plenty of replacements just as good or better. I like Lillyman back in ,but think Gavin Cooper would have been great also. Looking forward to seeingCronk and JT at fully fit, at near their best.

I think the raiders went out there to try and belt us out of the game. A lot of semi legal high shots and crusher tackles. Luckily, while they seemed to be concentrating on that shit there were some fairly easy yards up the middlle for our hard running forward pack, Good to see Ricky Stuart so...

The signs are ominous: playing a team on a roll with a bigger foward pack and a back line who like to throw the ball around. We on the other hand are : on a losing streak, down on confidence and origin tired. Add to that playing footy on a crappy Thursday night. All adds up to a Broncos win!

Absolutely spot on. I would just point out that when the centre gets the ball in the attacking zone , it is a culmination of a lot of work from the forwards first defending then hitting up the hard yards. Now if that centre lacks any real attacking flair ,it must be a bit disheartening for the...

We really need to retune our attack , but really hard to get have much confidence with Jack Reed occupying one of the important attacking positions. Would there be any chance at all of tempting Hodges out of retirement for the run to the finals?

I thought the script read that Qld we're going to be overrun by a younger and bigger rampaging forward pack. I thought our defense up the middle was superb. Some excellent leg tackling ,which hurts the big guys more then the high stuff. Really good win. So good to see Daley so sulky after the...
