And he gave the ring away ...

Well Done Broncos!!!!

What can you say Broncs just too dominant on the night…

Roosters sloppy, very sloppy… SKD, Fergo, RTS etc, all had slip ups… Broncos made them pay for nearly every one…

Credit to the Roosters for the mini-comeback in the first, nice finishing by Ferguson on his double…

Just not good enough on the night…

Hodges has to be cleared by the judiciary, he's a champion & the incident was unfortunate, not his fault (Imho.)

They have been tough on those incidents this year….

Hopefully the Cowboys do the job tonight & we have an all QLD affair….

P.S… Watched the game this morning from DVR, I recorded the delayed coverage on Foxtel as I can't stand Nine's SD in a HD era…. Vossy was on commentary; he is probably my favorite League commentator going round, alongside the iconic Rabs… Also Great intensity!

Thought it was common knowledge that the coach gave his ring to Thurston after the game?

Tonight should be a ripper too. Not sure how the Cowboys will go against the Storm with their clever tactics to slow the play the ball.

Yeah, the chooks were laying all over blokes for ages last night and they certainly weren't penalised every time they should've been. Will be interesting to see if the same standards are applied in tonight's match.

Yeah it would be a bit rich for the refs to crack down now on the wrestle. Either it's fine and get on with it or make it clear at the start of the year. Be interesting to see what happens.

Thurston vs Cronk
Scott vs Bromwich
Coote vs Munster
Granville vs Smith

some of the best players in the game up against each other in this match. Most 49ers fan would enjoy this game even though they haven't a clue what's going on.

Yeah, it's a pity no one from the "other side" seems to have had a look at a game. Well, they haven't commented if they have. A bit of an exchange in that regard might help with some of the headbutting that goes on.

Not a bad game actually. Cowboys with Thurston having a red hot go.

Storm to me look a little rusty. I wonder if the week off has thrown out theot rhythm?

He did but it was just a loaner...

Go Cowboys! All Qld GF looking good for now!

JT laying on that try at the 70th minute, what a player!

Agreed. 4th Dally M all but in the bag.

Storm ran out of puff after 20 mins. With the week off I dont get it.

Great effort North Qld. Siren goes. They're into the big one.

His coach gave it to JT after he gave his own away.. But JT didn't think he deserved it and intended to give it back when he earned one of his own.
Mate hes definitely in the talk for Immortal status along with a few of our Queensland boys.. Locky, Cam smith, Petero etc etc

Was a good game tonight .. Now for an all Queensland final.. Woo
