Other Games [Round 24, 2022]

[bob dylan]

Broncos complete pretenders. They won’t beat saints away either. What excuse will Kevvie and Ikin conjure up for this capitulation. What an embarrassment in the 8 all year until the last round.

Also its what happens when a team loses their best player.

 

[Waz13]

The Eels will go out just as fast.

How can they be in the hunt with players like Opacic, Wangar Blake and Penis-In-I in the top grade. Cant wait to see who goes up against Olam.

Flat track bullies completely. The broncs are back to their bottom 4 best of years gone by.

Also its what happens when a team loses their best player.

don’t agree entirely. They have lost at home to Wests, barely beat Newcastle then had 60 put on them by Melb, all with Reynolds playing. Broncs have run out of steam sone time ago.

Carrigan has been a big loss too, and prob their best player in my view

 

[wedgetail eagle]

Even though he was penalised for it, the universe was crying out for Kotoni Staggs to put that hit on Gutherson

Yeah i wasnt referring to the garden gnome who slayed us.

It was Carrigan i was referring too.

 

[Damien2812]

Donkeys flogged again and I think Raiders will flogg us. So I'm glad to see the Donkey's will not make the finals. Lol

 

[Nordburg]

And the Broncos haven’t even worn a rainbow jersey

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

This is what I like about the AFL's Father–Son rule. Technically either us or Souths could have claimed Hosking if the NRL had a similar rule.

And if there was a Grandfather-Grandson Rule - we could have a shot at young Meaney.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Some absolute thrashings by the Eels over the Broncos in recent times. Ended the Broncos 58-0 in week 1 of the finals in 2019 and now this

 

[bob dylan]

But they are showing the same amount of PRIDE in the jersey they are wearing.

We could've had Nathan Cleary steering Manly to the finals.

And if ever there was a genuine reason to pull the nepotism card from Kevvie it was a month ago. Billy was going great at dummy half, then they drop him to the bench to bring in Turnip. Fk he is garbage.

I didn’t know Staggs was on the field until then.

lol. Noooooooooooooooooooooooo

The thread is 'other games' but Manly still gets a small mention.

I'm just happy I found a site that prints the games in Australian time. Everywhere else usually converts it automatically to Canadian time (even the nrl site!!!) but I don't think that's real helpful to the majority.

 

[globaleagle]

Fiery prop Thomas Flegler got a forearm to the throat just before half time and was rushed to hospital, not returning.

That would have involved a decades-long scheme to keep his dad in the fold.

Who could have foreseen back then that a solidly performing local junior would go onto be a great coach? Then sire a son who would eclipse dad’s on-field achievements and in the process position himself on the threshold of greatness?

I agree though, it would be good to have him onboard. ‘nuff said.

Well “small mention it is”
The time lines would do my head in

 

[ricardo]

Amazing to watch the immediate impact Barrett has had on the Parra spine. They just clicked last night didn't they? He really is a supercoach in the making

 

[47MVEagle]

The pressure is really on Parra to break their premiership drought this season since they're losing a few players to other clubs next season (most notably Mahoney to the Dogs & Papalii to the Tigpies).

If not this year then it will be a long time before they're in contention again.
