Wish I was in the Broncs sheds...Madge probably blown a forehead vein

Needless to say Bris need 1st try

Madge will be exposed yet again in 26. Im convinced the Broncos won the comp simply because the players realised they have the talent to and they did it. I think the won in spite of Madge, and they cant do it again for a coach they have no respect for.

In reality, Cleary did not deserve to be playing

 

[tiger_one]

And this doesn't look right .......

 

[jadtiger]

Great couple of days, Eels flogged, Rosters flogged and Bronks flogged. Three teams I really dislike

Lets hope Souffs follow suit.

Only a few games into the 2026 season and Im already pee'ed off by the 6 again's. Yep, it aids momentum but geez it so subjective and there is no explanation as to why its given, or not given in some instances. Either at time or after the game. To increase accountability I would love to see after the game the ref have to submit a brief report on why each 6 again was given after viewing the footage. If they cant remember reason, thats the start of warnings that the awarding is out of control.

I wonder how long it will be before I get the sh*ts and stop watching the game this season

I also wish the commentators would shut their traps when a captains challenge has been lodged and the ref is talking to the bunker explaining why...
Most times Ginnane and Cronk etc are talking over the top of the ref

He was their best

Would be interesting to know when the last time the defending premiers were kept scoreless in round 1. I can’t ever remember it happening.

He got me a very respectable 68 as my C. I’ll take that in round 1.

In my Draft Fantasy my opponent forgot to appoint any C VC or interchange players as emergencies. Haas amassed less than 20 by halftime. 56 in total at the end. Poor start.

Which tells you a lot about how poor the Broncs were. He did nothing in the 1st half and only appeared to care once it was all over.

I think last year was a bit of an outlier for him SC/Fantasy wise. He was an absolute animal. I don’t think we’ll see those numbers this year.

Depends on how Benji plays Terrrell May this year

Depends on how Benji plays Terrrell May this year

Our front row forward depth is better this year. I’d prefer him to play less minutes

Totally agree 60 to 65 minutes max for Terrell
