COMPLETE [Round 1, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

[Super Freak]

Hopefully Kevvie fires a rocket up them.

But it will probably be more of the same and Roosters will run away with it in the end.

 

[Wolfie]

Pretty poor first half. I think we are missing Herbie's work rate tbf but i wonder how these boys will manage this year as there is a lot more expectation on them to perform.

Get Carrigan back in the middle, he's head and shoulders above our other options at 13. Seems odd to me to disrupt the team so much when we have Baker and Kobe who could fill in there. We need the Payne and Pat 1-2 punch now we have lost Flegler.

 

[Brocko]

The only try they have is off an intercept while Ezra played to a player that just went off and handed it to them.

Defended line well but attack needs some work. Show some patience and the chances will come

 

[BroncsFan]

A challenge on the field goal

Don't think it was a challenge, bunker is allowed to review field goals now

 

[theshed]

Typical broncos first half. Let’s see if they still have the last 20 minute run away in them

 

[Nerd]

I'm just lost on some of Adam Gee's decisions.

We are our worst enemy at the moment. Just stupid mistakes and we have kicked the ball dead 3 times so far...

 

[MrTickyMcG]

Justice.. because the play the ball from the roosters before that field goal was a dog’s breakfast..

I screamed out the same thing. What gives them a right to a quick play the ball there. Turns out they couldn’t hear me, but apparently my kids and wife could hear the swearing

 

[Volvo Driver]

Yeah more short dropouts is what this game needed. Just leave it the **** alone. Fucking he’ll.

It wasn't even short. Pretty much got to the 30 meter line.

Need to play hard up the middle before doing anything flashy.

And no more kicks dead please.

 

[Big Pete]

The loss of Piakura has rocked the Broncos and they've done well just to hang in there. By rights, the Roosters should up by 3-4 tries.

Still in this, but the Broncos need a big turn-around in the second half.

 

[Broncosarethebest]

We are behind, but I think we’ve got more improvement in us than what the roosters do. We’ll finish strong.

I think so too, I'm just hoping all that defence in the first half doesn't gas us at the end, first game of the season so match fitness wouldn't be there yet

 

[mrslong]

Our shape in the red zone is a bit rubbish. Not sure if that’s because we don’t have patty at lock or an adjustment for the smaller field. Either way it’s super clunky.

 

[MrTickyMcG]

We are our worst enemy at the moment. Just stupid mistakes and we have kicked the ball dead 3 times so far...

I worry that the idea of a penaltyless grand final has gone to his head

 

[Dash]

So far it's playing out exactly like the last Roosters game. Their "line speed" is super humanly fast and we're going nowhere.

Let's see how long they can keep it up for, the second it drops off we'll carve them up

 

[Browny]

Why the **** did it take a challenge to see the obvious blockers

 

[KateBroncos1812]

I blame Rosie she left 2 minutes in then she returned before half time hopefully she stays now

Need better possession in their half.

 

[vertigo]

I know its only round 1 with a completely different preperation than usual but I still loath watching us play from behind like a bunch of donkeys

 

[mrslong]

Can we have a pact not to blame the ref this year ….except in the case of howlers ala the bunnies double movement…. The reffing hasn’t been why we are losing, the stupid offload from Mam is.
