tempted
 
so, anybody else think that $3 is a slap in the face? The other game is $1.90 / $190. I would have thought this game might have been around $1.60 / $2.20 given the location and the Wallace injury, but $3 is insulting.
 
I'd rather be $3 than $2 or thereabouts.
 
If Wallace was playing the odds would be very close to even.

I couldn't believe we were $2 last week! At a home game!

Yeah well the bookies were going on past records at home and against the Dragons so fair enough IMO. The bookies are doing the same with the odds for the Melbourne game. I 'll be heading to the TAB to put some money on the table I think the Broncos are Specials...
 
Honestly, unless you're having a punt on the match, why would you care what odds we are?

I think it is time to fire up people!!!!

We have done so well to come this far but honestly lets not look back now!!!!

We are playing our biggest arch rivals IMO of the decade, lets not just conceive defeat just because peter wallace is out! C'mon guys lets get into it!

This time 18 months ago Peter Wallace hadnt even played a 1st grade game for us, yes he is very important to us and the way we have been playing but in 2006 who was our premiership winning halfback? Yes, Shane Perry!!

Lets not forget we have an immortal in our side in Lockyer plus rep players in Hodges, Hunt, Folau & Thaiday.
We have the experience of Parker and Carroll and the hard hitting of Kenny & Sims.
The enthusiasm of Glenn, Winterstein, Setu, McCullough & Te'o added to that and not to mention a well known prop sitting on our bench in Joel Clinton...add to that our X-factors in Taylor & Yow Yeh and GEEEEEZ WE ARE IN FOR A HELL OF A MATCH!!

Lets not conceive defeat yet fellow broncos supporters, everybody has already written us off, we are certainly in for a great shot and im glad everyone has written us off - can anybody remember the 2006 prelim against the dogs??!!!!!!

Lets not forget some of the names in the storm lineup: Nielsen, Tandy, Cahill, Anderson... Like really who are they anyway???!!!

FIRE UP FELLOW BRONCOS SUPPORTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets do our bit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

shit yeah dude, cmon broncos!

Their pack withstood an onslaught from an in form Manly pack in the first half of the week 1 final and then came out on top humiliating a pack of premiership quality. I know everyone on here loves to hate the Storm but FFS give them and their players some credit.

Can't agree there.. Manly's pack is soft.. supposedly they out muscled the storm in the first 20mins of that game, you compare that with the 20mins we put in against St.George.. there was no mongrel in the Manly forwards, they were bigger then the Storm, but weren't effective.

Add to that Manly dropping the ball, kicking balls dead on the full, and sometimes no kicking game at all.. they basically handed Melbourne the game.
 
Great inspiring speech Beale! CMON BOYS, SHOW EM WHAT BRONCOS SPIRIT, REAL SPIRIT SPIRIT IS MADE OF!

Whilst they can be inconsistent, Manlys pack are very much a handful on their day. Particularly if Watmough is firing.

Yeah, and last game wasn't their day. They were soft. Melbourne are in for a hell of a shock if they're expecting more of the same from our pack. In fact I don't think Melbourne have experienced what we've got planned for them all season. If we fire up in the forwards in defence like against the Dragons (e.g. Sims, like someone said in the spoiler thread, he fair dinkum wanted to kill someone), there's no reason why we can't win, though I'd rather see Ben Hunt at 7. If their pack keeps getting smashed, they'll never have the ball at the right end of the field, or have the space, for the likes of Slater and Inglis to hurt us.
