Well as nothing is appearing on the forum can we asume its Catalans 0 Broncos 0



Apparently not

16-6 behind at h/t. Solomona scored

16 -6 at half time Solomona try Drinkwater conv.

I just read latest score as 34 - 6.

Looked at half time score thought that does not look too bad, looked away and ooops here we go again.
looks like same story, team comes out in second half and change there game to attack our weaknesses as you wouldexpect, we come out and, well nothing changes

34 12

Caton brown in for our second

Can we yet be classed as officially the worst Super League side in history?

Macani in strewth we have scored 3 tries in one game

Is this not a thread on score updates

Four. Final score - Catalan 40 Broncos 24.

Slyney in 40-24 final result
sorry it never lived diwn to yr expectation gooner.

The losing points differential has been reduced by 34 points as compared with the past two weeks. That is grounds for optimism when the club meets up with the weaker sides in Super League.

No wins from 8 games this season. Or 11 games if you count the pre-season ones too, IIRC. Utterly depressed.

Again looking at positives from the result!
Was convinced when it was 34 6 we were gonna get blown away, looks like they re grouped and started playing, !
40 against us not good but most points we have posted in a game so far this season.
lets see what the match report says

Shipping 40 points and losing eighth game in a row and you are happy? I envy your positive outlook on life!

Which weaker sides? They are all better than us.

Did I say anywhere I was happy?
as I said 40 points against us is not good.
What is wrong with trying to see if their are any positives to take from the result?
The negatives are their to see already

Look on the good side its only the pies next up in pie land
sigh

That was the only chance of a win gone when we drew another SL team in the cup.

looking at the report, looks like drinkwater was our main man.

Count that as one of our pre-season games, slightly delayed. Getting to the SF last year did us no good at all.

Negatives: Completely fell apart for a 10 minute spell after half-time sealed our fate. Only 4 Broncos fans.

Positives: Looked competitive for most of the match and the better team for the last 15. Junior teams on tour from St. Helens and Leeds formed a vocal 50 strong Broncos fan base. Karl Temata came along - no plans for future. Team angry about the 10 minutes.

Great to hear from a fan who was there who can give a true perspective. The fact that we were competitive for most of the match indicates our attitude and defensive work must have improved after that abject display against Cas. We also seem to be 'creating' try scoring opportunities which means something has changed in the coaching!? If they can start being competitive for 80 mts who knows.......

Theres two ways I can look at it.

a) Cats are fellow strugglers and we were easily dispatched!

or

b) Cats' are returning to the form that makes them credible top 6 contenders and we competed well, didn't go to pieces and even fought back!

Broncos assistant coach Joe Grima was disappointed to see his side's cup challenge ended so soon, but was still able to take positives from the game.

"It's not often in rugby league that you will score 24 points and get beat, but that's probably where the London Broncos are at the moment," he said.

"There was a period in the second half where the Catalans scored three back-to-back tries, which really hurt us.

"That probably shows where the Catalan Dragons are too. They've played particularly well in the last four weeks and that was probably typified by us scoring 24 points, yet still not winning the game.

"At half-time the team were incredibly confident they could get a result, given where they were situated and the opportunities that had been given to them, particularly in the last eight minutes of the first half."

Despite giving away 40 points to their opponents, the manner in which Catalan's tries were scored was a source of some comfort for Grima.

He said: "The majority of the Catalan tries were scored on our edges or through broken play. Any coach will tell you right the way from under-eights up that it's better to concede tries out there than in the middle.

"We did that tonight. Over the coming weeks we now have to get our edges as solid as our middles."
