POST GAME [Finals Week 1, 2023] Broncos vs Storm

[winslow_wong]

Man my reaction to the injury from Paps vs Coates was a lot different. Felt real bad for Paps but I feel guilty for how excited I was for Coates. Am I a bad guy? Sure. Am I happy to live with it? Yes.

I felt bad for Coates too. I’m happy when he has that sad face from an error he makes but his injury sad face is actually sad.

 

[GCBRONCO]

On the contrary, I am really pleased with his defence, good read and nice speed which is what Oates lacking currently, even just 62m, I remember he caused at least one penalty and no errors?

Plenty of players in this side can make the big metres, defence in our own half is critical and that is where Arthars shines. He also is a solid try finisher given the opportunity.

 

[Strop]

Absolutely exhausted after that. What a ride.

 

[Galah]

On a dry track and Oates fit I would go with him, but Arthars has done the task all year and is safe as a house under the high ball. IMO the right choice.

I debate, there is a reason they never went right, he’s fantastic under the high ball and great in defence…. They knew it. They never went right.

 

[Super Freak]

After sitting through years and years of floggings, that was fucking glorious.

Played much better in that second half.

Legit feel sorry for Papz.
**** Turncoates though.

That one shot he put on Meaney. Arthars became the meany

Classy from Kevvie upfront to wish Paps well before anything else.

 

[GCBRONCO]

I go with what the conditions are where the players are at. Arthars was the right choice, Oates wasn't and your right they definitely went that way(Cobbo's side) for a reason.

Legit feel sorry for Papz.
**** Turncoates though.

Remember how he was going to Melbourne for less to make himself a better player? When does that happen?

 

[BroncoFan94]

From getting beaten 58-0 in our last finals appearance which led to a wooden spoon to now 1 win away from a GF is such a remarkable turnaround. Not only that but putting our demons to rest by comprehensively beating our bogey team who have had the wood on us at Suncorp since 2009 and for a long time. That felt good! Honestly huge credit to Kevvie but especially Donaghy and Ikin for what they have done to turn the club around.

Kevvie: We aren't getting too carried away, the Storm had their injuries and it wasn't a spectacle but good to win a big game like that.

HAVE GOT THROUGH INJURY FREE!

 

[Waynesaurus]

Kevvie is doing a great job of keeping a lid on the performance and result.

 

[Hammerman47]

Superb, dominant, courageous ........... and Brilliant.

 

[Midean]

Kevvie is doing a great job of keeping a lid on the performance and result.

For sure, you can tell he is bursting with pride right now though. And rightfully so.

 

[Thelmus]

A changing of the guard. Remember once aussies finally beat the Windy's? It was all over for them at that point.

Oh by the way, I loved seeing Bellamy lose his shit tonight and behind on the score board with no hope. Am tickled pink here lol

Yeah im old enough to remember tty he windies. I watched them at the gabba in 85 as a kid and they seemed to have an answer to everything australia threw at thrm. Keppler Wessels was batting brilliantly (my hero at the time) playing brilliantly with 150 against the best fast bowlers the world had seen and an aging clive loyd comes on to bowl some slow nothings and clean bowls him.
Yeah tonight feels like that time in 91 when we got them, and like that time we will very likely some all time greats mark a turning point in their careers.

Hopefully Ikin will be there for grand final day.
