POST GAME [Round 3, 2026] - Broncos vs Storm

[Nerd]

Amazing what our team can do when they hang onto the ball. Thought Mariner had a very ordinary first half but his speed let him do some try saving tackles in the second half that Shiba wouldn't have got to. Hope he keeps his spot.

What to do with Reynolds? We seem to play better with him out of the team and BHunt is a way better defender than Reynolds.

Credit to Anderson too. I had him labelled as a spud, but he was ****ing solid and dependable.

Sorry he looks lost for ideas. Some of the drop balls came from his poor passing. Then when he has the ball, he has no idea what to do except a short pass.

Who? Mam? He hasn’t played that much footy the last 18 months and even less with hunt. As long as he gets his defence right, the rest will come as combos develop & they get their timing right again.

I had to have a little laugh at melbourne players staying down trying to milk penalties particularly in the last 10 mins. Bunch of weak *****.

Is Headgear Riki the only NRL player to have a 100% win rate against the storm?

 

[daveycrocket]

Shouldn't have anything to worry about... even if they put a grade 2 on just run the Cleary defence, because it's all the same indicator... although the dr finally pulled someone off for a HIA for lying down

For some reason I now have thoughts of staggs facing the judiciary 'but sir, my last name is Cleary'

Headgear? Result? Coincidence?

 

[Hoshsie]

Would Mariner maybe be better on the other edge?

 

[jd87]

not sure what has happeend to mam. still must have lots of demons and issues outside of footy.

he looks lost and unfit to be honest.
so much milford vibes its not funny.
hope he can turn it around becuase he can be so exciting to watch.

maybe he does need to be dropped to get a bit of a wake up call.

if only we had billy.
**** i miss billy. he was so good for us last year

 

[Swordfish]

As good as it is to walk away with the W, there should be no more of this shit. This W should give us plenty of confidence for the boys to absolutely smoke our next 3 opponents and beyond.

I think it actually helped us lol - we were starting to look a little tired. All the breaks helped

Grant Anderson?

Credit to Anderson too. I had him labelled as a spud, but he was ****ing solid and dependable.

Anderson has always been solid. Nothing flash but great squad player.

Just quietly.... hold off on that request. Let's see how this plays out...

 

[Culhwch]

It was good to see Karp and Mariner get back into that late 2025 form in the second half, tag teaming sets out of our own end. Need to get a bit more of that going to spell the big boys' legs a bit.

Yes. Hanging on to the ball. Who would have thought. Last week was the dumbest performance in a long time. Tonight was much better.
