Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2796073, member: 1899"] Everyone is going to have a theory why the Broncos lose the big games. The general concensus surrounding the grand final is that they went away from what was working. Instead of playing attacking football, they were finding the touchline as early as the 50 minute mark. Now, I don't think that was actually the approach the Broncos wanted to take, in some instances the ball just took an awful bounce or a player would put themselves in trouble so the halves would have to try and salvage it but that's just how it happened. Personally, I don't think the Broncos approach has been the problem. If you watch the replay of Round 25 2016, Brisbane showed every single team how to play Melbourne and it was clear the Storm were frazzled. Hell, even in the games we lost to the Cowboys, the Broncos were the better team each time. What happened was both times, the Broncos suffered an injury to their left fringe, the Cowboys took full advantage and barely escaped with a narrow victory. Also, I don't think Hunt or Milford struggle in the big games. If anything, that's where they've made a name for themselves, proving the difference against the competition heavyweights. I think they struggle to close games out, which is where the frustration lies, but they're just as likely to play well against a Melbourne as they are a Warriors or Tigers. [/QUOTE]
