[BroncsFan]

No idea... probably Haas and Patty... not even sure if Patty played well to be honest

 

[Santa]

Big games by some of our forwards tonight. Never stopped trying.

Going with Hass, Carrigan and Riki.

I can't give Riki a point for that awful effort on Munster

 

[Old Mate]

Walsh had some moments, I liked the aggression from Mariner and Gos.

 

[Sproj]

Its so hard given players were so out of position for most of the night given so many key injuries.

3 - Haas
2 - Staggs
1 - Cobbo (that chase down tackle did not get the result it deserved, he flew from the other side of the field to get there)

 

[Hoshsie]

Jaiden hunt was great, he gets my vote

 

[Foordy]

It's a tough one.

Some big efforts from our forwards.

Haas: 14 runs for 147m with 47 tackles (no misses)
Riki: 11 runs for 137m with 44 tackles (although 3 misses)

Patty also had 48 tackles with 4 misses (but run for under 100m)

I think i'll go with Haas and Riki, then for the 3rd vote i'm going with Cobbo ... that chase and ultimately a try saver deserves a vote.

Did we…make a mistake letting Cobbo go?

The are going to be scary good next year with the cattle Katoa is going to have to work with.

The are going to be scary good next year with the cattle Katoa is going to have to work with.

Dolphins signed him for $500k when he was miles out of shape... Cobbo in the shape he's currently in is getting beyond $600k... not sure we could afford it.

It will be interesting to see what attitude he pops up with at dolphins... if he starts to exceed expectations then his price tag starts going back up... CBA coming in next year as well though, which means more salary cap for all teams.

I was saying at the start of the year that we should be trying to sign him up for a one year deal and then our cap opens up again from 2027 onwards... as well as the new CBA coming in... but are dolphins wanting to spend that much on Herbie, Hammer and Cobbo when none of them are really spine players.

Hammer is playing fullback, but he's not your modern day fullback... he's a runner and support player.

Hass has some fantastic incisive runs.

Carrigans ball playing was excellent tonight. Some nice little late passes putting his fellow forwards through gaps.

Even though it didn’t result in anything, I’m going with Walsh. He was our only source of creativity once again. Without him, we don’t even sniff the tryline and would have scored negative 16.

 

[McHunt]

Every Broncos player was awesome. As were the Storm, maybe even a little moreso.

Full credit to the NRL.

 

[Old Mate]

Gos hit Munster in the throat. Worth a point, would’ve been 2 if it was Grant.
