Dangerous outside the 20.

This is an interesting read.
The current Broncos side might have my favorite attacking structure ive ever seen.

We are absolutely dangerous from the 50 meter line, while the rest of the comp almost entirely relies on getting inside the opposition 20 to attack.

 
And THIS is why we're best placed to challenge Penrith's suffocating defence and can win a game from inside our own half.

Melbourne had something like 5 tackles in the Penrith half by half time IIRC, or something similarly stupid. We can still score from that position, many teams cannot.

Penrith love jamming the middle and trust their pace on the edges if they get caught out. Not only can we shift the ball quickly, but we have a lot of mobile forwards with good footwork - as do Penrith - that can take advantage of any holes along the way.

I am now in zero doubt that we are a legit challenge to their three-peat. We just need to get to the big dance first without shitting the bed.
