7 days to rest up, come over to Australia and figure out a way to beat a team that is basically better in every single position. Goodluck. If they win they will have fucken deserved it. But reality is we ain’t on the same level.

Mate they'll be everywhere with CHEEEEEHOOOOOOOOOOs

Broncos crowds are tame even at the best of times, it's something we really suck at.
Regular season games we are quiet. Gotta lock them out.

regular season crowds I would agree with you... but the finals games crowds tend to be a different story
I agree. 2015 PF was origin decider equivalent.

If you look at the likely teams head-to-head:

1. Walsh (Broncos)
2. Watene-Zelezniak (Warriors)
3. Staggs (Broncos)
4. Farnworth (Broncos)
5. Cobbo (Broncos)
6. Mam (Broncos)
7. Johnson (Warriors)
8. Fonua-Blake (Warriors)
9. Egan (Warriors)
10. Haas (Broncos)
11. Capewell (Broncos)
12. Niukore (Warriors)
13. Carrigan (Broncos)

14. Walker (Warriors)
15. Hetherington (Broncos)
16. Palasia (Broncos)
17. Curran (Warriors)

So even me being harsh on our team, we still come out 10-7.

If I am not being harsh, it is more like 12-5.

And off an absence of finals appearances since 2020, the crowd will be up for it.

I am worried... but not about them, more about our own performance. Warriors really are a light form of us but they are good enough to take advantage if we buckle under pressure.

Having said that... we beat them without our origin players, in nz, sooooo there is that....

Is SJ better than reno? 🤔 I think he’s leading the dally ms because he doesn’t have walsh and haas taking votes off him.

If you give him space, yes. If you rush him he'll just step you.

Did not want to play the Warriors to get to the GF. They seems to up their game for us most of the time and beat us when not expected to..

I hope and pray the boys annihilate them. Put them to the sword as if they weren't meant to be

I trust in Kevie and the boys to get us to the big dance 🤝🙏

It will be a different experience for the Warriors coming up against a side that is far more physical up front then that of the Knights who had looked shakey in recent games. I also can't see the Broncos underestimating the Warriors in a grand final qualifier, they know it's not a match they can afford to lose and after last season's end will want redemption.

This will be routine traffic for the Broncos. Sj ahead of Reynolds is a deadset joke in comparison. Our backs, forwards, halves.. almost all over the park we destroy the Warriors. This will be a drubbing.

Next weeks game is a guaranteed win for us and just a formality. I cant see any scenario where we dont put 30+ points on them. Its the biggest mismatch out of the two games. Grand Final here we come.

Much like losing to the storm in the final round, this is the best case scenario for us coming into the game. I was worried we would be flat after basically playing our gf last week and the warriors getting thrashed by penrith but I'm sure tonight's game got the boys attention.

Please guys, let's not underestimate the Warriors.

However, nothing short of a GF appearance is acceptable. Nothing else. We HAVE TO beat the Warriors.
Agreed, I was confident, but see all this over confidence is making me nervous.
We just gotta play our game and we win, don't let them jump to a quick lead like they did tonight
And calm down everyone with the "we'll smash them next week!", don't jinx us!!

I agree. Don't get ahead of ourselves but i look at the likes of carrigan, capewell and reyno and think.. who do the Warriors have that will combat that leadership..nobody
