Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2692545, member: 1899"] Great afternoon at the footy. Was great to see all the families there and all the costumes and such. It made for a different atmosphere and it was a nice change of pace from Friday and how moody those evenings can feel. Only complaint I have is the ground announcer forcing a lame 'Let's Go Broncos' chant down everyone's throat and the Broncos Cheer Squad going for a Mexican Wave. If it was still 26-0, I'd get it, but it was 26-16, the game was on the line and you want to make yourselves the focus? I'm not sure what the go is, but I really wish that area got more support. Would love to liven that section up. Pretty patchy game of football. I thought Wests started really well but just let themselves down with an inability to complete their sets and their tackles. A couple of times they found themselves over the line only to be denied one way or another. You really can't afford to do that against a team like Brisbane and they learned their lesson the hard way. I didn't think it was Brisbane's best performance at any stage but they just have those flashes of magnificence. I don't think I've been this excited about the team since 2009. Thought the second was a combination of Wests fixing up a few areas, while Brisbane were caught up in trying to entertain than to compete. I can forgive the first and third try. The first try simply wasn't a try, it was just another crap call we've had to cop while the third is what Wests are capable of. Disappointing given the kick-chase was a major issue but Tedesco is a freak of a player and it's not often you'll see that type of play. What stuck out to me is that when the game became a contest, the Broncos didn't get over-awed and they just kept at it before the game turned when Maranta picked up the loose ball. It lead to one of the Broncos best sets of six of the half and while Hodges and Brooks undid that somewhat, I think it gave Brisbane the belief that if they could get their hands on the pill, they could break the Tigers.
