Even better, nothing to do in NSW anyway.

The best chance of us making the top four is for this to happen:
1. We beat the Roosters.
2. Of the remaining games we only lose to the Storm (or even better, beat them).
3. Sharks lose to the Rabbitohs.

I honestly feel that kevy has the broncos firing at the right time of the year. I think the cowboys this year may be the new eels with a piping hot start only to fall away at the back end of the season. We are on an upwards trajectory with our best performances still to come. If we are anywhere in the top 4 at the end of the season we have a high chance of winning the comp. I know the panthers are on another level but I think we have proven we can mix it with them and with a fully fit squad, beat them.

Penrith will get 1st, and I am backing us to get 2nd.
I am not sure how how Cowboys go after that Tigers game, but if they play like that, they will drop some games (I.e. roosters, Souths and Penrith).
Sharks have an easier run home. I am hoping Souths and maybe Manly (If they recover from the drama) beat them. But if not, we've gotta win our remaining games, and hopefully put 50 on someone to get that for and against up. But we can't afford to lose any unless we get a bigger gap on Melb and Souths.

Cows have definitely shown some worrying signs of being burnt out. They have had massive representation in rep games too.

Sigh back to 5th. At least Souths lost too.

That game right there is why we aren’t winning the premiership. Not this year.
Premiership winning teams have the killer instinct. We lack it.
That’s been one of my reservations about Kevvie. Whether he can instil that killer instinct and it remains to be seen.

I think we just need to stop changing the team from what was working, especially when it's not needed. Lee, Gamble and TMM should be back in the team.

The issue wasn't the changes.
This has been an issue for quite some time now. We'll put in a great performance, then back it up the following week with a garbage performance that makes us look like amateurs because we'll be taking on a lesser team.
A chance to strengthen our spot in the top 4 and possibly jump to 3rd and we fucking dish up that.
That attitude is going to keep us from winning a premiership and it's fucking giving me the shits that the coaching staff still haven't coached it out of them.

I never really paid much attention to this thread, I actually thought it was a bit of a piss take.
We were never a realistic chance of winning the comp this year, I think if most Bronco fans are being honest they'll admit the Parra score flattered us as we scored some pretty lucky tries, if the tries weren't lucky we definitely had a bit of luck in how we were able to get back to back sets.
I got no doubt the pitchforks will come out and Kevvie will be under the spotlight if we fade out and finish 7th or 8th but really, considering where we were, it has still been a great season. Who knows though, maybe this Tigers loss is the one that flicks the switch, maybe it was the bad game we needed. Ball is still very much in our court with some of the teams we have to play, if we beat them it'll obviously strengthen our position and weaken theirs.

If we want to go deep into the finals, this was a good loss to have.
A loss isn't bad at this time. It sends the rocket up them. They will be better for it.
