THE “Cameo Broncos”.

[Super Freak]

Accept - '07 was one of the worst seasons I can remember, not just for the Broncos but in general. So many clubs were dealing with upheaval that the gap between the Top 2 and the rest of the competition was staggering. In the end the season came down to an unconvincing win over Canberra at Suncorp and the Knights scoring two late tries to sink the Tigers. That last round game between Brisbane/Parramatta is one of the weirdest 'hidings' I've ever seen.

I just have a strange feeling that if Emmett didn't bomb that try by holding the ball like a basketball and accidentally his knee, we go on to win it.

We were all over Parramatta, and I think that try would have crushed their hopes of a comeback..

Then Emmett bombs the try and boom.. Parramatta just annihilate us.

Scott Minto, cult favorite and a true club legend even if he was one of the most ordinary players ever. Won't ever forget his try against the Storm to win in extra time.

Compare our backline to the back 6 the Storm got to field in that final of 2007 and no wonder they cut us to shreds.

1. Billy Slater
2. Steve Turner
3. Matt King
4. Israel Folau
5. Anthony Quinn
15. Matt Geyer

I still get flashbacks of Turner just walking over the line and looking around thinking, what the **** was that?

It was the easiest try he had ever scored and it was very clear the Broncos had finally given up and just didn't want to be there. They kept the finals run going, they did their job.

Mick Ryan is much more obscure. Have you ever heard of him?

I have , had big wraps on him . If i remember injury and lack of minutes was his downfall.

Some of these Minto comments are getting dangerously close to banning. :biggrin:

The Man lost my support when he started his Artie Beetson is a racist BS .
He reckoned he was a better 5/8 than Laurie Daley and Freddie Fittler . And his heritage was counting against him .

He didn`t seem to realise Laurie has indigenous roots too . Fool ...

Freedom of speech is important...except when it comes to the Mint.

We aren't America. This is in our constitution. Chapter IX - The Minto - thou shall not speak a bad word about the Minto. Punishment is stoning to death.

I believe it's referred to as the Mint Act, applicable at all times with no warning given.

Such grace, such elegance, such class. In such a brutal sport, moments such as that bring a tear to the eye and remind one of such beauty that only one such as the Mint could bring to such a game.

Dat leap.

The gazelle gets his running style from Minto

This needed to be made

Only Minto could have scored that

Considering his debut was in the Baby Broncos game vs Wests in which he was outstanding, I thought his future was bright. As it turned out, his debut was his finest moment.

Did you not see the image above? His Swan Lake moment is head and shoulders the greatest moment in the history of sport.

Did you see the Baby Bronco game or were you just a baby as well? This was a great try though in a match where a victory was vital.
