POST GAME [Round 12, 2023] Broncos vs Panthers

I wish we'd had a crack at Souths and Penrith II with full strength sides, and Melbourne without the Carrigan 'I Can't Believe It's Not A Hip Drop' binning. I really like our chances if we get/stay healthy and have to play any of them at the business end of the year.
plus the lost 6 point try in the middle, off a completely new Ref changing the Bunker decision and the 1st try by panthers being clearly a double movement that wouldn't have been a try without the second effort.
 
People will say we can't win without ARey, to to some degree they're not entirely wrong ... but take Cleary out of the Panthers side (or give us an impartial ref) and the scoreline is completely different tonight.
Yeah that was a very close game. One or two moments and we are in front. Playing like that we will win against most teams. With 44% possession and only let in two try's, none due to poor defence
 
We always get the Warriors during Origin and without our rep players normally get beaten. Funny how we never get the Chooks or Souths with both teams missing rep players....
I was thinking about this the other day @Nerd. Seems like they always get a “free shot” at the Broncos. Especially given they are predominantly kiwis and not impacted by Origin.
 
Simple.
Arthars needs to go. Has zero impact.
Herbie’s a ball hog.
Paix offers absolutely nothing off the bench these days.
Hetherington is a weapon that is underutilised.
Madden sees the opportunities but shits the bed. Needs more time imo and to grow a set of balls and demand the ball.
 
Great effort from the broncs. Take away the double movement first try and it’s one try all. We’ll get them next time.

We also play yet again more top 8 teams than anyone else in the comp but move on, move on nothing to see here.

Would be awesome to get the Raiders or Titans draw one year. Would also be awesome to win lotto one year as well but not holding my breath for either to ever happen.
 
Another Capewell. The only difference is, he Is Newcastle’s best player this season. Or close to it.

That's kind of harsh. Arthars made some crucial kick defusals tonight and ran the ball hard. We only had 44% of the ball and spent 80% of our attacking sets in our own end.
 
Frizell. Experienced old head.
I would liken him to a Jeremy Smith Dragons signing in 2009. Need the work and the starch in the team.
 
Can I just say how good it was when riki got fired up towards the end and just started legally belting anyone wearing black.

We need to find a way to get him in that mindset constantly...
