[Round 23, 2021] Broncos vs Warriors

[Harry Sack]

Call me a cynical POS however Henry P should not be anywhere near a warriors game. If his howler when the warriors played the raiders wasn’t enough, this has to be.

Yeah, I understand they're supposed to be impartial but take the controversy out of it ffs. If you played for the team, you don't oversee their game...simple. I'm very glad Walsh can't GK for shit though.

@Nashy did we go through with the banner bet?

 

[TariqT]

Flegler - 0 penalties, 0 six against, 0 errors.
Is our guy growing up?

He's playing like a man now. Hitting the defensive line with gas and a little jink in his run and holding the ball. One of those players that returns from origin better.

 

[Organix]

Apart from the deadset bullshit that the bunker is, see how much better and closer the contest is when there is fark all set restarts.

This was a noticeable difference. Broncos are constantly better when there are no strings of 6-again calls early. I called it last year. That was basically a tactic to wipe us out without it being overt. They were/are never consistent with 6-agains and they use them to influence a game severely. Since the whole "blowout" fiasco the refs have put the hand in the pocket, but they will simply say that we got fitter/better at defense. It's a farce.

My big concern is how much we lose our way when Haas comes off for a breather, Flegler played well today again and I'm hoping he continues but we need to be able to continue the charge forward when Haas is off.

The NRL is legitimately bad for my health. I swear I almost had a stroke when that last try was awarded

 

[Spoon]

Cobbo at fullback in the last set there. Interesting.

I like our attitude, if it continues next year we are in good stead.
Mae just aren’t quite classy enough yet.

Didnt realize that but hopefully a sign of things to come

 

[Jedhead]

If you take the two points we should have had last week (forget all the close games we nearly won) and add them to our total the Tits have only won two more games than us to date. I think Kevvie and the coaching staff deserve some credit. Working with what they’ve got has been challenging. The shit officials have not helped. What was wrong with our first try? Frikkin bunker again!

 

[winslow_wong]

Our juniors really shining through this season. Take a bow Walsh and Dearden.

 

[Nerd]

Great to finally win a close one despite the best efforts of Checcen and Perenara. Flegler had another good game and Haas was a metre eating machine. Thought we were playing all over the Warriors till Kennedy came on. He missed two crucial tackles with one leading to a try and the other big metres to the opposition. I was a fan at the start of his career but he is losing me at the moment. Milford had probably his best game in 3 years but still took the wrong option on the last tackle on multiple occasions. Instead of taking the percentage play and forcing the Warriors to drop out he kept going for the glory or nothing play.

Liking what I'm seeing for next year and Reynolds should sort out our last tackle options nicely.

Flegler, fucking well done. Improving his game and very solid. Proved invaluable.

Milford, well fucking done.

Kellys heart made a big difference in a few small occasions.

Kevvie take a tequila shot, this is a different side to the team that started the year - well done.

Payne and Tom went off around the same time, I just don't think you can take both of your starters off at the same time. The other thing is (stats may prove this false) but it seems like Flegs is playing more and more minutes as well.

Good game boys. I'll get the broncoshq.com logo up on nzwarriors.com later tonight.

Congrats!

So can the heat be put on the cowboys and Todd payten now?

Didn't realise Tom went off as well at that time, well that only compounds the issue.

 

[Mustafur]

Say what you want about Kevvie but look what he has done from what he was given, Madge in 3 seasons at Tigers haven't had a run of games like us where they have been consistently competitive for 2 months and he gets given Free passes from the candy store.

The way we have been playing lately we would easily make the 8 if we had a better start.

Congrats!

You are a good sport mate but that was one heck of a fun game, really good stuff from both sides.

Refs had it in for us. Still some very dumb players but at least most of them are moving in next year. I still wish we kept Milford. He would do well with Reynolds. Kelly made a truckload of errors
