Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2743657, member: 1899"] The Sharks were just too good for the Broncos today. Sometimes you've just got to face up to the facts. The Sharks are a much more bigger and physical team than the Broncos and they used that to their advantage from the get go. They were going to run through the Broncos for a period, the Broncos just had to survive. Unfortunately the kick defence was off today. I have no idea what tape the boys were watching, but they needed to make a change and had to get Boyd to treat it like a priority. For a player like Paul Gallen to score off a grubber is embarrassing and suggests that the boys didn't show the Sharks enough respect. It's a shame they effectively lost the game because the other fact came out. The Broncos are a fitter side and typically a more resilient side with better discipline than most. They will sacrifice certain periods of the game, even surrender the lead but they'll usually compete in the critical moments and that's what we saw this afternoon. While I thought the Broncos gave up too much of a lead to get the Sharks and was ultimately proven right, I found some of the plays under pressure to be really disappointing. Brisbane have often put themselves in a position to win games, but always have a mistake in them at crucial times too. Until they address that, the premiership belongs elsewhere. We'll see what this loss does for the Broncos. Best case it serves as a wake-up call and they go into the Double Header with more energy. Worst case and we may learn a thing or two about individuals we didn't want to know. Unrelated, is it just me or is the worst part about a loss is that threads like this just become a huge 'I told you so' fest? I guess some people do it to make themselves feel bigger, when in reality it just comes off as really petty. [/QUOTE]
