Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 3577332, member: 8215"] Fans are that dumb that they just take what these pathetic "professionals" write as truth, and don't bother to come up with an opinion of their own. What they don't factor in or fail to realise (because Journalists don't tell them) is: * "Not leaving Queensland" does not make them home games. You could argue that games against the Titans and Redcliffe are similar to a NSW cross-town rivalry, but an away game against the Cowboys is just as wearing as a trip to Sydney or Melbourne. * In fact "The Broncos only travelled to Sydney 3 times last year" was written so that idiots would read it as having to travel "away" 3 times. But in reality, games against the Cowboys, Storm, Warriors, or even the Raiders (technically not Sydney so they use that loophole) are just as taxing, it not moreso, than Sydney games. * As has been mentioned earlier, the "Away" game at Suncorp for Magic Round was started by the Sea Eagles as a way of propping up their attendance numbers as well as gate takings. Don't blame us. * Just about every year we have to play the Warriors at Origin time, knowing full well we'll be understrength and they'll be largely unaffected. And more recently the games have been over in NZ. It's basically a free shot to the Warriors with one of our arms tied behind our backs to keep the Kiwi bros over here happy, and/or the same to their boys over there. * We have 8 Friday games this year, and yet I guarantee there will be comments about the Friday Night Broncos again.
