POST GAME [Round 21, 2023] Broncos vs Rabbitohs

[GCBRONCO]

What a side we have. Tapau and arthars get weeks, mariner and flegler come in. Willison was so good coming off the bench tonight he demands a bench spot at the least

I think Arthars might be ok, Marty is in trouble though.

Walters needs to chill a bit. Needs to realise not every team are the Bulldogs. Smoothy doing well.

Smoothys best game, really saved us from a bog ordinary game from walters. Every player has them I guess. Cook was ordinary for the rabbits too. Funny to see both hookers play so badly.

Yeah I agree. But the depth. Mariner just sitting there waiting for a spot. Incredible

Praying Mam just has a cork

They said bad cramp

Shout out to Kotoni. I thought he was very poor first half but regrouped and didnt really put a foot wrong in the second half.

My favourite part was when he held back the offload when Reece was marginally in front and took the tackle.

 

[Culhwch]

Media (probably): yeah but broncos only beat a south’s team without Mitchell so they aren’t contenders. And they haven’t beaten any top 4 teams except for Penrith but that doesn’t count because they were tired and the fact there are only 2 other teams to beat in the top 4 because they’ve been in the top 4 all year. None of it counts and they didn’t have to leave Queensland much and stuff like that.

Sounds like some Bronco fans, honestly...

Feels like the big difference to this time last year - besides twelve months' experience - is Reyno healthy and confident. I don't think he ever really came back from that Canberra game last year.

Walsh doesn't hurt either.

 

[Skathen]

Great win but we're capable of so much dumb shit omg

 

[Super Freak]

Was anyone else waiting for Walsh to blow up when that obstruction call was made?

I was waiting for it...

Arrow playing with Reyno's kid - coming back to Broncs confirmed.

Reyno was playing the south’s mascot.

We were pretty rubbish, but won by 16 with 2 bins. If we can put it together and stay healthy, we can beat anyone.

 

[Johnny92]

Unsure if it was a tactic or not in the first half with Cobbo/Staggs jamming in to make Walkers only option to play long to Johnson because we seemed to cover that quite well and probably put Walker off abit.
A play late in the game with Herbie going across field and linking up with Cobbo running a hole would love to see more of that.

 

[Browny]

Can the commentators please give the "last year the broncos fell off a cliff" a fucking rest now?

You realise they are hoping for it?

 

[Kaz]

Go **** your self Parker. You’re such a disgrace to pull on the Broncos jersey. You just talk complete shit & who gives a rats ass you disgraceful moron.

Why are you being nice about Parker.

 

[broncos4life]

Super proud of the boys to win that with everything against them.

I might be in the minority here but I feel like all the joy of it has been sucked out by the ref. I should be ecstatic but I just don’t give a **** because you know that eventually the refs will get there way and it will likely be in the finals.

 

[Browny]

Best attacking performance all year once they clicked.

Staggs attack is starting to come back as he’s getting better ball.

Can’t understand how Arthars gets his head taken off in the first half and doesn’t even get a penalty and then in the second half he gets binned for a high shot on Souths. Then just to rub it in even more, while arthars is in the bin, Souths do two blatant high shots that again go ignored.

It definitely was. Force the wide ball. Staggs was already on his way there. They only did it when they had decent field to cover, not close to try line.

I think people are being a bit harsh on our first half even. We looked the better team, just could not convert. Ok, they learnt from it. Will see that they're better off playing like they did in the second half, but the D was good. The attack just a bit rushed, working Walsh back in and having Carrigan a bit wider too.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Get ready to Lose Taupau for an extended period. The media are after blood, how surprising.

 

[Brocko]

They are comparing Marty to RCG and Suaalii who both actually made contact.

It doesnt even look like Campbell Graham even knew what the penalty was for, it was just that his teammates flew in.

Its very dumb, not excusing it, but no contact was actually made.

The media is going to ensure he gets several weeks.
