Thank you rts and BBQ for all your great efforts throughout your time with us. You will be sadly missed . Very very sad that we lost but we got beat by a better team on the night. Next season can't come quick enough.

My thoughts - Look back at Robbos history in big games, you have to question the fact that he fails to get the team up and his game plan is to predictable.
It looked like tonight there was no game plan.
Once SKD scored the Broncos try the momentum was never going to go back roosters way.

I agree mostly. Robbo is a good coach no doubt. But all this talk about him being the greatest since Jack Gibson is premature. He's had close to the best roster three years running and won one premiership. It's nothing to shake your head at but it certainly should have been better. Last season was ridiculous from us with the roster we had. This year was better but ended the same. Robbo will be judged when his roster isn't as deep as it currently is.
He has made it the best roster. Maloney at the warriors in 2012 was terrible, RTS was a rookie with potential (like many we have seen in the past) and now he is a superstar. I can go on and on. Fact is we were outplayed much a much fresher team tonight. But full credit goes to robbo for mking us a disciplined team and a proper competitive squad.Comment of the year:

I blame it on:- Robinson chasing the minor premiership instead of having fresh players coming into the finals. There's jack shit between coming first and second in this comp;
- SKD immediately putting us on the back foot this game;
- RTS putting the icing on the cake with another dumb play.

The week off is everything, our best performance in 2013 was against Newcastle...we dipped slightly the week after in the grand final but Manly were gassed after 4 finals and we ran over them late.
Losing our first final as minor premiers in back to back seasons is simply unacceptable, this is the coach dropping the ball somewhere......either the week of the game or the month before it where he has us peaking too early.
Our squad will not be top 4 material next season, we've missed our window.

Am so extremely disappointed tonight. One has to really question the team and robbos ability to rise to the occasion for big games. We were out enthused tonight and just were never in it
We are very much a momentum side. Our attack can look very predictable sometimes. We lack the combinations with our passing that Brisbane showed tonight.
Another massively underwhelming end to the season after

we weren't prepared to put in the hard work tonight and got the result our effort deserved.
Yeah we played a bit like we wanted to win the game in one or two plays. Not sure if its fatigue or what not , but we weren't in this fight for the long haul.Comment of the year:

He we go. Just like was predicted. All the super coaches and their Robbo bashing.
Broncos were way to good. Hardly made and error and defended brilliantly.
We made error after error.
Yep. Let's put that on the coach.
Some of you honestly don't appreciate what you have got. Thank god you don't support the Tigers or Parra.Embrace the Hate! JC

Robbo is a great coach but have to admit was outcoached a fortnight ago by Bellamy, and tonight by Bennett.. They knew exactly what they had to do and carried their game plan to perfection when it counted. Unfortunate but the bright side is our young forwards will get better after this experience..

We just didn't have any composure tonight. Bennett coached teams more often than not have this quality.
Even under the guidance of Ricky we were able to get to 3 GF's.
We just looked so nervous. Milford made 6 tackles all night. Did we test him? Does it come down to coaching? I'm not sure.
There's better judges than me.
