Sloan has to be softest defender in the nrl

Now that Walsh has started putting his shoulder into it, yeah prob

 

[Ever Hopeful]

The Dragons have a history of talented, but incomplete fullbacks in the last few years. Jai Field, Matt Dufty, Tyrell Sloan

 

[Ever Hopeful]

Late tackles eh...

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Jesus! Will Chambers could get a gig on the sky sports panel!

The sky mob would look like expert commentators next to him.

Crikey mate feeling sorry for the Broncos. It's like feeling sorry for crocodiles. The nearly killed the game in the Super League era .Them and Murdoch. Never to be forgiven

Turn it up, Super League should have won, the game would be so much better today if it did.

Best idea they had was kicking Souths out of the comp.

Broncos jerseys designed by Helen Keller.

It'd be better for all if she made a copy of the Rule book for the Refs and the Bunker.

You reap what you sow, wasn't Kevvie supposedly the Bronco coaching Messiah

 

[JayPee]

Safe to say that the Broncos last year was luck and Walters has lost the dressing room and actually can't coach... that's how it goes I think.

Exactly!
Or, the comp is so close that a few little things can upset momentum, and next minute...
Exhibit A, Titans were run over at the start of the season, suddenly now they're the form team (just in time to play Manly next week)
(But I'm happy for coaches to cop the blame, they're well paid for the privilege of screwing up fans hopes and dreams!)

Which wasn't even their idea, if you read George Piggin's book. "Kick Souths OUT!" was a plan going around well before 1995 and the birth of Super League.
Super League - if it had survived - certainly needed to kick the World Club Challange to the curb. That was a shitshow that only served to make the shitty Australian Super League clubs - Warriors, Mariners, Reds, Rams - feel good about themselves.
Always amuses me how no one ever questions the people around the coach when a team goes bad. Like, the Warriors and Broncos drop-off in form couldn't possibly be because - in part - the assistants actually aren't all that great at best/are undermining the coach at worst.

 

[The Who]

The colour of the Bronco jersey was inspired by the sewers of Brisbane.

I can’t believe we lost against the broncos in magic round. We should have wiped the floor with them.

Same with that crazy loss against canverra

We seem to play teams who are in form every week.

 

[Scorpio]

Walters doesn’t strike me as the bloke that can bring Brisbane a premiership

I didn't rate him so I was pretty surprised last year when he got them to within 5 minutes of a premiership. Not sure if this year is back to normal transmission, or they just don't have a ready backup for Reynolds

 

[BroncsFan]

Pass a mile forward on the back of a phantom yardage penalty... looks like the ref has decided who's winning this one
