POST GAME [Round 13, 2026] - Broncos vs Dragons

[Foordy]

Positives
Walsh was a safe under the high ball
Va'a Semu is keeps showing he is a player of the future. needs to see more time on the field
our f/a didn't end up getting shot to shit as it looked like it was going to

Negatives
literally everything else

 

[Jazza]

Definitely can’t blame refs or injuries today. Some of our efforts in defence were embarrassing. Our attack slow motion. Time to change things up. Bye Shibasaki and Hunt. Bring in Anderson and Mozer. Play with a little bit of pace.

 

[Gray]

We just lost to a Kyle Flanagan led Dragons, I don't know whether to laugh hysterically or inconsolably cry.
I think I'll do both

 

[Dexter]

Why do we wait until the game is over to start running shapes out of our own end to make ground.
Every good team does it but we want to just bump it up the middle 1 out and play into the worst team in the comps only decent area.

 

[FACTHUNT]

Just had this gut feeling that we'd be the one to lose to them. It had us written all over it.

That was identical to the last two times we played the Dragons (24&25) at Suncorp.

 

[maximus84]

Who’s going to be the first one to blame the ref or injuries for that one?

The beauty of that one is no supporter can go near that today. They were absolutely awful.

I honestly look at Paix and think he is just one of the biggest issues with our attack, bloke had 2 runs for 7 meters, Cook who has miles on the clock compared to him ran for over 100 meters, he just offers nothing, and im well over Hunt now, bloke is stealing a wage, almost as much as Mam is.

 

[BroncosFever]

Why can't we start a game the way we finish them?

 

[Santa]

30-26. Pretty sure I heard the commentator say last 2 times we played them that was the score.

Yep. 3 games in a row with the exact same result...

 

[daveycrocket]

Need some courageous coaching if the madge is gonna turn this one around.

Drop Mam,
Drop Shiba,
Probably tell bhunt hes not in next season.

Spend a sh*t tonne of time at training on completing tackles.

 

[Broncones]

Let's just ignore this game.

We're in the same position we were in 2025. If we could turn it around once, we can do it again.

Hard to ignore losing to a team on a 15 game losing streak with a full strength side, dragons didn't even really play that good either

 

[Hoshsie]

It was really good to see Piakura back

 

[Old Mate]

It had to be us.

I knew it. It was always going to be us.

What’s the story with Shiba? Did he get injured or hooked but why would he get replaced by JetSki. We need to go all in on haas and Willison at starting props with the emergence of semu now.

 

[Smokin' Joe]

**** we play some dumb footy to put ourselves in these holes. Why do we not compete on attacking bombs?? It's a free swing. We are the only team I see you that doesn't do it.

Also Ezra is a bot! Hopefully some other team takes him off our hands.

Ezra is a huge problem. That whole edge is a huge problem.

As I’ve said before, Ezra looks like Milford 2.0 - confused. He just doesn’t know his role. And it’s killing that side of the field.

Ben Hunt is done. He is just simply, done. He is offering nothing.

 

[Waynesaurus]

Go and watch the 2024 dragons game. This season is a direct replica. Short pre season, exhibition coming off the back of a GF and rep footy. Injuries and now chasing fitness.

If madge doesnt turn it around I'd say he will get ass end of a season review and be punted.

No he won't, he won a premiership last year, at the very least he will get next year to turn it around.

I haven’t watched a minute this year until today but our hookers and ruck play seem to be a massive issue.

We don’t engage the marker and our forwards always seem to skip out rather than get under the ruck. It’s rugby league 101, get back under the ruck find your front and get a quick play the ball

 

[Hoshsie]

You know I love the eternal optimism, but that was a dagger in the heart. Even more, had the dragons at 20 to 1 for 13+ so the comeback sucked.

I am in a complete silent stewing right now. Not a good person for my family to be around. Disgusting performance.

Sucked in little bro

 

[Bronx48]

I don’t know if I’m in the minority but Reyno and Hunt should’ve retired last year. We should’ve started fresh this year. We look old and tired
