I think a lot of what has been said is dead right, but also, that the storm are a champion team, while the broncos as always are a team of champions... and we've all seen how that works out.
I like that team, but I think no matter what combo we go with, if they play 80 minutes with the same energy and team work as last night... they'll get it done.
I think WB, Bruno and Ivan all got it wrong whenthey focussed all our $$$ on a back line, but left us with a pack that has to off it's brain just to match other teams. Our biggest drama in the backs for years has been no other option other than Locky, but we fixed that by getting wallace, so why...
Great win, but to me, even if they had lost... the gang tackles and the wrapping up of the ball was pure magic that we have almost never seen in any Broncos team, so that was great. Can they go all the way? who knows, but if they keep playing this way, it will be tough for anyone to beat them...
I wouldn't be too worried about what WB knows, he's been in charge of the worst slumps in history... If the Broncos play well and tackle their hearts out, then the dragons won't stand a chance.
Cows and horses sleep lying down, sometimes they stretch out like they are dead... they do go into a sort of a trance in the dark if there is no room to sleep on the ground and perhaps thats where the cow tipping thing comes in. But we have live stock and I promise you they don't sleep standing up.
Brisbane were good early, but I am yet to see a comp won in the first 8 weeks. We were very lucky to get half the wins we did and I didn't for a minute think we were a new team. For years now the broncos have been brilliant in parts, but bloody awfull for long patches and all under the guidance...
I doubt this season would be going very much better even if WB was still here. There have been signs of a complete wipe out coming for years. If ppl are so keen to say that a new coach can't be blamed for what happens in his first year, then some blame has to go on the previous coach...WB. He...
Someone's head has to fall... the club has been falling to bits and looking less and less likely to do anything positive in a few years now and yet we never see anyone getting thier BUTT kicked over it.
So many people keep saying "Oh No! we won the comp in 2006" and I agree, we did, but we...
I like the teams offered as they are pretty well all we have.
BUT!
I think we'll still get slaughtered, no matter who takes the field.
Very sad :(... breaks my heart to see the club I've backed for over 20 years fall apart, and seemingly not care.
The likes of Prince, rogers and little...
I think ivan the terrible has to go! right now!
But this implosion has been coming for a few years and maybe thats why WB bailed out. You can't base a whole club's future around the ability of one or two very special players and expect it to work forever, we've had a great run, but the game is...
No! no! he's a great coach. NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are looking at the worst broncos team EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanx Ivan the terrible.
Forget everything else and just tackle.....
OMG! I am getting so sick of watching our team embarriss themselves.
We don't even...
I for one would never have given Ivan the job to start with. Why you may ask? because if you always do what you've always done... you always get what you've always gotten.
After all these years under WB Ivan offers pretty much just the same stuff, only not as good a version.
Under Ivan, just...
I find it so hard to watch them play these days...
We can't or won't put the man and the ball on the ground.
We can't or won't or won't offload.
We can't or won't stop offloads.
We leak points bad.
We struggle to score points.
Why is it so?
No it's fine to bring it up, no worries at all. His one on one defence is pretty poor, fair enough. I just think he has and still does so much in attack and keeping the team together that he deserves for that crap not to be brought up all the time.
Hodges is a penalty magnet and a ball hog...
