Only tuned into the last 20 minutes but so happy for the broncos.
Could not deal with the Storm winning especially after Utoikamanu’s comments earlier this week. Like seriously, who does he think he is. He got into Origin purely because of his coach without doing anything of note in clubland then managed to play horrifically both times. Payne Haas is easily the best forward in the game but I never hear him say anything cocky or egotistical. Always comes across as quite humble (could be wrong as don’t pay much attention).
Anyway, happy for this broncs team. Was initially going for the raiders but midway through Raiders, Broncos I found myself cheering for the other side and decided to stick with them instead.
I have been mesmerised by Reece Walsh over the last month or so. He’s very well hated by most league fans and to be fair he can be a bit of an idiot at times but you cannot knock his talent whatsoever. One of a few players in the league who can genuinely win games from behind by himself as shown in that Raiders semi.
So happy for other players like Payne Haas who has had an extremely tough family life. Reyno and Hunt, especially Hunt after his last grand final, as they are two legendary halves of the game close to retiring. Also Billy walters lifting the trophy as I felt really bad for him doing his ACL as he’s been massive this year.
And finally to Maguire. Things didn’t work out here at the Tigers and that’s a shame. However, he has copped significant media heat for not much reason this year. Dragged broncos from 12th to 1st with minimal squad changes. Solidified himself as one of the great coaches now. Also shows that he wasn’t the issue with us, it was the people in charge and the players and we are fixing that now (pray that Benji can coach).
And finally. Broncos have 100% win rate since Reece Walsh drank toilet water. Might have to get some of our boys on it 🤪.
