I think conferences would be a backwards step in the game's development. It just highlights the Sydney-centric nature of the game, given there is a whole conference dedicated to one city and the other is just "everyone else". I think we need to be moving away from this viewpoint and looking at...
Not defending her attack on the umpire at all - it was despicable - but she did give a lot of credit to Stosur after the game. Pretty much just said "she was too good" over and over again.
I vaguely remember someone hunting for an aqua jersey in the past. I think someone else came along and said that they were never sold to the public..? Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, the memory is very fuzzy.
You called it, Beads. I even think they're winning over the Sydney crowd because they're a happy group of young kids who are fun to watch. Well...maybe not "winning over", but there is certainly a lot less hate than usual.
This is the first time I've allowed myself to think that there is a chance we may go all the way this year. While I still believe that this has been a great season, regardless of what happens from here on in, I actually think this competition is winnable for us now. I wouldn't say we're...
I haven't slept in 25 hours and managed to stay awake for the entire game - glad I did!
What a win. Warriors weren't great but you couldn't ask for much more from the Broncos.
Now I can go to sleep and have happy dreams about grand finals and the like...
No doubt Inglis is a match winner on his day, but I would have serious concerns about his attitude and the effect of it on all our young fellas. Not only do I not have any regrets about his Souths defection, I'm positively happy about it.
This is true and very puzzling. We've had a huge turnover of players in the past 10 years and 3 different coaches, yet we still don't see many offloads. Why is this the one constant aspect of the Broncos' play that doesn't change??
I think I would have preferred Parker. I have no issue with Sam as a leader and representative of our club, but I think the captaincy tag and the pressure that comes with it improves Parker's game and detracts from Sam's. I don't think anyone could claim that Sam is the best performer under...
...how awesome has it been?!?
This season has been a really fantastic one to be a Broncos supporter. Our young guys have surpassed all of my expectations and just seem to be having so much fun doing it. Not to mention the arrival of the great Griffin, along with Locky's best form in 5 years. I...
I'm going to be away for this game and am shattered about it :bigcry:
I'll have to try and find it streaming on the internet somewhere. Fingers crossed the hotel has good wifi.
I don't follow cycling generally but I get sucked in to the Tour de France every year. A combination of the scenery, the tactics and the strange, unspoken cycling etiquette is all a bit hypnotic. Every night I think "I'll just turn it on and have it in the background while I do other stuff" and...
As Porthoz said, more unhappy with the scoreline than anything else as I don't think it's a true reflection of how the game was played. Broncos weren't terrible, they're just not quite in the same league as the Storm yet (who were, as ever, absolutely clinical in defence).
To be honest, I...
Pretty pleased with that performance considering we're coming off origin and the bye. Not a great first half but I'm happy that they managed to turn it around in the second, especially keeping the Titans to 0.
Refs were bloody awful, in the Titans favour I think but not by too much. Just...
I don't like Gasnier or the Dragons, but I'm with Ari on this one. If Gasnier wants to come back and help out his club for minimum wage then good on the Dragons for creating the kind of environment where blokes will play for the love of the game/club.
And I don't think the Dragons have broken...
