I hate this whole 'hip drop' tackle hysteria that has been going on in the NRL over the last couple of years.
The game is going that fast... I don't understand what they expect the defense to do... anyway;
I know opinions are divided on it so I don't want to start a raging debate on it or...
Ok bleeding obvious
I know we got the young guns in Deardon and Sull but are we in position to get a halfback at all?
I mean we could probably challenge the comp next year/2-3 years
Surely we have a good window before milf gets too old?
I have to have a rant about this -
A fundamental error such as a 7th tackle try is totally unacceptable. I cannot cop a "refs made a human error" for something like this. The fact that it will most likely just be mulled over and accepted (by the administration) makes it worse. IMHO I think this...
I know Non-Bronco fans are going to cry foul over this - but Origin has to be rescheduled. The scheduling of origin is farcical and makes the NRL look like a joke. The club footy played during Origin is abysmal... and the fact that it creates a false economy (teams getting cheap wins over...
Lately I've been trying to watch some of the 06/07 games... they don't seem to work... it keeps telling me to install Silverlight when I already have it... does anyone else have this problem?
(Broncos/league talk combined)
--> If the season falls into place without any doozies (I'm sure there will be a few)... most likely... to win the title you are going to have to beat the Storm in the finals at SOME stage...
Can we beat Melbourne in Melbourne?
I think we can take them at...
Thinking of starting a best tip (bet responsibly please! [icon_razz1 ) thread for the broncs games and SOO.
What are your tips for tonight and what have you got on?
Best tip for tonight?
Ive got:
Darious Boyd FTS - 10 @ 10
Petero MOTM 10 @ 21
YOYEH LTS - 10 @ 13
Pick the Score:
QLD -18 /...
Done and dusted according to the news.
Thoughts?
I'm not going to flame him right away but I thought the decision was long overdue tbh when he was finally told to move on. Maybe the old Carlaw will come back who knows. Hopefully he was a bargain and one year was a smart choice.
Did B Smith not want Mason? or was it the powers that be?
I mean surely from B Smith's point of view - he would have been able to come up with a way to use Mason? or did he just want the dosh from the cap?
I mean he's crap but not THAT crap.
The memory doesn't go too far back, I'm sure there were some for GT and Langer from 98-02 but I just cant remember specific games... off the top of my head:
3) 2005 game 2 State of Origin
I think it is probably the best game I've seen Joey play. He had just came back from an injury and there...
It's making me a bit sick how the Storm continue to play with their current team basically denying a fair shot at two points... I'm starting not to feel for the players so much anymore... I'm not really liking their reaction to the whole fiasco.
I know they are still digging out everything but...
Was watching some footage reels over the weekend and skimming through a couple of replays -
I know it is stating on the obvious but the game has gone soft... any time something tough happens its a penalty. I wish the refs would let the boys play sometimes.
Dirty play is a no go but let em play...
Ok obviously this sort of topic has been done before but lets get one going with a few categories:
1) Favourite player of ALL time: (JUST ONE)
Darren Lockyer - without a doubt the best player I've seen lace on a pair of boots in my experience. Dead set the reason why the Broncos were able to...
I rate Parker as a real good club player but I don't think he is a "leader of the pack". I know every forward pack leader doesn't have to be a meat-eating, chest thumping gorilla but to me Parker doesn't really instill fear or demand respect from the opposition. He goes about his business and...
Does anyone know the real Civo story and how it all went down?
I've been looking around the net but I can't find anything. A mate mentioned the other day we should never have let him go and if you think about it we could have had him in 08, 09 and 10 and he would have produced the goods. We...
Bloody interesting read if you got the time for it:
