OPINION Broncos are winning the 2023 NRL Premiership

[Sproj]

I’m actually interested more in how we go next week. We looked like we flicked a switch in that second half and the Rabbits couldn’t go with us. I’m hoping we build on that momentum for a run into finals now.

I actually don't see another poor performance In us this year. The second half of the souths game we were playing great footy. Every team we play from here on are going to struggle to keep up with our brand of football.

When do grand final tickets usually come out?

And final tickets for that matter. Keen to turn up for any Suncorp final game.

Not until after the final round.

To get minor prem means undefeated run. I worry what cost that could have on the squad.

The fitness and mental stamina has totally changed this year.

Who cares about the minor premiership? Why chase it?

just discussing. I would prefer locking down top 2 spot.

Crazy that we were last 3 years ago and now thinking about where we might finish in the top 4.

This is my thought about the Cowboys and the Warriors as well. They are both in such hot form, whether that can be maintained for another 5-6 rounds and then through the finals??

I thought i'd do a ladder predictor to see our worst realistic finishing position.

rules I followed

• Broncos lose every game
• kept default margin of 12 points
• outside of our game I gave the win to the highest ranked team (this obviously changed as teams moved during the ladder predictor rounds)

results

It is STILL mathematically possible to miss finals. Regardless of how improbable it is.

Aren't the Broncos on 14 wins? Who did you have them beating?

We should be almost a lock for the top 4. Obviously top 2 is the goal. Don’t want to have to go to NZ and beat them again over there.
Ideally our finals run is at Suncorp until the big dance.

don't know what happened there.

did it again and we finish 7th, 3 points and a 78 better differential than 9th.

I'd say one more win guarantees us finals

 

[Browny]

Just win ffs

And looking at how close it is, 2 more wins will guarantee us a top 4 finish (3 for top 2)!
