Here's another one.

Whenever I'm down over the off-season, I'm going to come back to this thread and remind myself that at least I didn't leave the Broncos to win a premiership only for the Broncos to win one before me...

I hate x coates as much as any on here and hate how the smug prick acted towards our club, and im all for the boys ripping into the media and opposition after winning.... but the 1 thing I didn't like is how walsh said that "the best coates, the real coates" line. I'd hate anyone saying anything about my brother, especially when they are feeling shit. No go zone I reckon
 
I don't get the hate for him personally. Sure he once said he wanted to stay here for life but when he left we were an absolute basket case. Don't blame him.
 
Did someone post a link to an app that let you view yourself at the stadium on the day?

My young nephew was at the game in the Melbourne bay and he said when he did the Chelsea dagger after Mariner's second try to take the lead the old dude behind said "you ****ing do that again and i'll bury your ****in head into this stand".

Says a lot for the scummy supporter base those cheats have.

I mean a 15 year old kid?

He also mentioned they had been whooping and hollering in his ear throughout the time the storm were in front too. It would be great to identify him and call him out.

Pretty sure Walsh and Xavier are best mates, I'm sure Reece would of said it to Xavier plenty of times his brothers better because he's with the Broncos.

I kind of thought it was about him skulling the beer.

Like "thats a real Coates right there"

No doubt they were having a dig at Xavier, but Reece and a lot of the boys would've played junior footy with Xavier (they're all Coasties) and origin as well... so we dont necessarily know their relationships with each other and how much shit they give each other.

Xavier mightn't even drink and they might be having a dig at that... who knows

I genuinely want to know what Xavier is thinking here. Like, is he regretting leaving us? Or is he just sad they lost and he loves Melbourne?

Nah, people like Riki and others are the true heroes - they chose to stay on and fight on with their mates instead of pretending that everyone else in the team was the problem and moved on.
He's made his bed, he can lie in it now.

Not sure riki would have fielded many offers from elsewhere over the years tbh, especially from a gun team like melbourne. Wasn't calling him a hero by any stretch I just dont blame him for leaving when he did and feel some of the criticisms are a bit much. I mean payne haas wanted to leave at least once and everybody is singing his praises.

Yeah, but he didn't leave, did he? He stayed and fought for the club and helped us get to where we are today. He didn't look for a quick route to success.

Coates probably becomes a better player by going to Melbourne rather than staying at the Broncs. That's all I'll give him. He's a Storm player now, so he can get ****ed. Premiers 2025 baby. Up the horse! 🐎🐎🐎

That's true. Individually we might only be 17 horse power, but as a team we're a frikkin 2025 stroke horse powered Koenigsegg Gemera.
