Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2489810, member: 1899"] There's been some great nominations in this thread. redbur, you got us off to a really good start. I don't think the club could have made a stronger impression than flogging Manly in Brisbane. The others are definite classics. GC always delivers the goods. Perhaps our most entertaining finals win of all time? Out of my list, I'd still include the Round 23 clash against Melbourne. Between it and the grand final as one of our most performances of that season. vertigo, you're a much braver man than me. I simply can't bear to sit through the elimination final again. The boys did a great job reminding me of their character after a trying week and for that I will always be grateful but to lose like we did was utterly heart wrenching. Error stats. are a little surprising but not by much really, I remember us blowing a lot of opportunities due to bad mistakes like Lockyer colliding with TC and losing the ball in support of Hodges who made a nice break, plus Clinton lost it twice fairly innocuously...then there is...Ashton...Sims...****... In saying, while it wasn't a high quality game by any means, the theatre that night was amazing. Definitely a nomination, for the wrong reasons! Porthoz knows how to pick a thread back up, how cathartic was the 71-6 win? The night before we were officially last on the ladder and the boys came out and demolished an admittedly ordinary Knights side. Honestly, I didn't care about the quality of the Knights team, I was just happy watching the boys throwing the ball around and enjoying their footy. Hodges, Hunt, Eastwood & TC were in some form that afternoon! The two home games against the Titans in 07 and 08 were good spectacles. We were feeling the pinch with injuries in the first game yet came home with a wet sail and allowed Lockyer to kick one of the most absurd field goals of all time. I still remember sitting on the Western Stands and being unsure of it going over until the crowd went absolutely ballistic behind it. 08 was a really frustrating game, we started on fire with Wallace setting up Clinton for a very soft try but then a number of 50/50 and out-right controversial calls went the Titans way and we lost our composure. Remember that night well because my cousin's room mate scored one of our season tickets and he ran with this 'neutral' angle where he basically bagged the Broncos out all night and predicted every referee call that went the Titans way, even though he'd later admit there were a few dusty ones. Was a relief when Lockyer shaped to kick a field goal only to find Moon on the outside to score another 'clutch' victory. I'll nominate a couple other games 1989 Panasonic Cup Final 1992 Grand Final Brisbane vs. Newcastle 2002 @ ANZ Baby Broncos 2002 [/QUOTE]
