    PLAYER Darius Boyd Discussion

    Not that much out of context... why does Boyd need to do a novel personal celebration, generating a joyous reaction, on the evening when the Broncos were 50/50 at best at receiving the first wooden spoon in their history. His whole attitude - "footy is just my job not my life / identity" -...

    Josh McGuire signs with Cowboys - Immediate Switch

    Guys a full clean out of mediocrity is what we need. We are the Broncos, the Man United of the NRL... but haven't won a premiership in 12 seasons!! When I was a kid the Broncos were genuine title contenders every year. Now we have lost our aura and think close enough is good enough... we must...

    Broncos Player Movement and Rumours 2020

    I read today that the Eels are shopping around Corey Norman. If we could get him on a bargain buy (i.e. Parra to pay half his salary), what do you think of bringing him back to the Broncos? Halves pairing of Milford and Norman (Niko bench hooker playing 30mins) would be very dangerous IMO.

    Sam Thaiday's Greatest XIII

    Sam must have a personal issue with Corey or perhaps too great a personal rivalry to name him... maybe spilling from the captaincy controversies of a few years ago? There is just no chance any objective or subjective judge would have Ben Teo, Boyd Cordner and Shaun Berrigan as better back rowers...

    Thaiday unleashes on Kangaroos snub

    The way Sam has expressed himself, ie on social media imo is not very professional, however I can understand why he'd be upset. The fact he didn't get a phone call shows just how far off the selectors' radar he truly was. It's almost like his name was never even considered and nobody even...

    POST GAME Round 26 - Broncos vs Roosters

    Sloppy game, but a lot to like imo... Hunt trying to go through the line several times, throwing adventurous passes etc... Showing he has some confidence back which is key to the finals. Roberts getting more involved even if he was a bit hit and miss; Kahu looking fit and engaged; Glenn...

    Just catching up with this... You blokes are brilliant. Social activism at its finest!

    James Roberts Drama

    Lol... doesn't matter how big or strong you think you are, if you have three or four bouncers who are equally as big and strong each twisting wrists, elbows and shoulders into pressure positions, you are stuffed mate. On Roberts... about three or four weeks ago - it was a Saturday night after a...

    Ben Hunt's field goal woes

    Field goals by nature are chaotic, often happening in the dying stages of a game or golden point where pressure is high and the defence is onto it. Milf has slotted more than those other dudes because he's taken two or three 'for practice' ie when the game was already won.

    Ben Hunt is overrated

    People have short memories. Would anyone want Wallace, Prince, Norman, Hoffman (!!), Gillett, Seymour, Tony Carroll, Shane Perry et al... back in our halves. There was a time when an untested Kahu was training all preseason to be our 5/8 (before doing his knee or achilles from memory). Since...

    Ben Hunt's field goal woes

    We already had that game lost when our young forwards struggled against an enthusiastic Tigers pack playing well above their pay grade. Perhaps our youngsters were believing in the pre-game odds or were taken by surprise, but they definitely didn't provide the right platform for Hunt and Milf to...

    POST GAME World Club Series - Wigan Warriors vs Brisbane Broncos

    Re. Kodi and being likely to leave next year... I was thinking the same thing, especially if he watches his kid brother play well in a starting half position at the chooks this year... No way will he be happy to stay a bench utility you'd think...

    Time running out for Greg to find Eden

    Just noticed my error in the earlier post... I meant Aaron Whitchurch... The CM has run stories on Eden, Whitchurch, Nicholls... clearly trying to appease Broncos tragics with whatever off-season 'news' they can drum up. Nonetheless, I'd be surprised if any of the three get any real run. Maybe...

    Time running out for Greg to find Eden

    The courier mail also ran stories on Darren Nicholls and Greg Eden this week... Would be surprised if any crack the squad.

    Where to watch Cowboys final in London

    Hey guys hoping some of you well travelled folk can help me... I'll be in London on Saturday and was hoping to watch the Broncs smash the cows via a pub somewhere and not on my phone. I know the walkabout and others have the grand final, but does anyone know of a London venue that will...

    Dale Copley - Appreciation Thread

    I find it interesting that Kahu has seemingly jumped Copley for any outside back position. You'd think it should be in this pecking order: Fullbacks - Boyd, Kahu, Maranta, Nikorima, Eden Wingers - Kahu, Maranta/Vidot (equal-ish) Centres: Hodges, Reed, Copley But instead Dale appears...

    Broncos Player Movement and Rumours 2015

    I still respect Tallis as a player and I guess his strong convictions and courage to speak his mind are somewhat commendable... I'd still shake his hand and have a chat if I met him... but seriously he is making a fool and a bit of a pig of himself of late. Every time he is a commentator on...

    POST GAME Post Game Discussion - Round 1 - South Sydney

    It's difficult to judge too many individual performances, or call for mass changes off a game like that. Opposition was on, our attack not gelling at all, way too many errors and penalties, pretty poor kicking game etc. Most of the backline were just quiet, well covered and couldn't get into the...

    PRE-GAME Round 1 - Broncos vs Rabbitohs

    Honestly, some of you guys are just incredible.. imagine if Maranta, after (potentially) working his butt off all season to improve on his speed, handling, hitups and finishing... plays very well in the WCC, impresses the best coach in the game and wins his spot... only for you lot to crucify...
