POST GAME [PREMIERS, 2025] Broncos vs Storm

Manly are an absolute shitshow... they're basically being carried by the Turbo family at this point and this year showed what happens when they start breaking down and run out of brothers

Manly will be fine. I’m sure Kobe will go to another level under Seibold’s regime…

I like how the last time we beat Storm in a GF, it was a loss against Storm during the regular season that was the turning point for us.

Same thing happened this year. That loss against Storm in Melbourne was the turning point for us, and then we go on to beat Storm in the GF.
 
I had a client come in (i’m not a prostitute) who is a Manly fan. Generally a good guy, but still has that Manly fan flog about him. I always enjoy seeing him once a year because we can talk footy.

This year he came in as the biggest sad sack of shit. Saying Canberra should have won it etc…. I kept saying, but they didn’t. We did…. He barely wanted to talk footy at all. I lost a lot of respect for him (as much as you can have for a Manly fan).

He would come in king shit when Manly were going well, and I would cop it sweet but he couldn’t even acknowledge how good we were the last month.

In conclusion. Him flog. Us winners.
I'm so happy NRL fans hate us, like this guy you're speaking of.

I love the hate. I love when people make up excuses as to why we should of lost etc. It just makes winning more enjoyable.

When we were at our peak in the 90s, I went to school in the St George area in NSW, grew up a Broncos supporter my whole life so you can imagine what I had to deal with lol

Always remember, the only reason we cop so much hate is because we're the best and we won the premiership. And they can't stand it because whatever team they support are shit lol

People were quiet in our bad times because we won a wooden spoon etc, they almost felt sorry for us... but now?

Let em talk!!!!
 
Exactly - when talk starts up again about rorting the Cap, having all the advantages of $$$, third party deals, etc, etc, you know we are successful again.
At least they can't use the 'one city team / half of maroons squad' thing anymore
 
Watched the replay for like the 20th time this week.

Ezra Mam is a big game player. He doesn't get overawed by the occasion, which is something that can happen to a lot of young halves. Two GF's and he's been top 2 best on ground in both.

If we can make sure we keep a strong pack going forward, we've got a pretty bright future with the likes of Walsh, Mam, Mariner, Karapani in the back line.
 
I watched the replay for the umpteenth time as well today and I noticed when Riki caught the ball at the end, but before Stefano completes the tackle, hass, mam and one other turned their backs to celebrate already.

In an alternate timeline Stefano strips the ball and then it turns into a 4 on 1 overlap on the left hand side, a la Inglis prelim try ptsd. Munster sideline conversion wins them the game and papy wins the clive churchill. The mental impact of this would have been magnitudes worse than 2015 and 2023.

Walsh shouts "FK" into the sky a la Locky in that prelim, then X Coates uses this win to convince P Coates to move to the Storm. Harry Grant also never starts following the broncos on insta. Then Buzz, Gordie and others comes out and hammers the team and Madge for living uo to the stuckup tag. Stefano well and truly lives rent free in our heads for the next 15 years, and Bellamy extends his time with the storm for another 3 seasons. FACTHUNT's backside remains untouched (no tattoo).

But luckily for us in our timeline, Stefano already gave up and barely touched Riki to complete the tackle.
 
in 2011 but Gerard Beale took that from us tho I guess.
Man, what a game that was? It was the last game that I’ve been to Suncorp & I miss those days very much.

Who would’ve thought that in Locky’s last game @Suncorp, he would be the one to kick the field goal to win us the game but get kicked in the skull for real to end it all?

You’re right, that Beale’s kick into Locky’s face demolished us that year.
