Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 2505227, member: 1992"] I remember well the early days when the QRL/BRL did the bidding of the more powerful NSWRL ( defacto ruling body of Aussie rugby league ) . The QRL were repeatedly offered the chance to field a team in the big comp but refused to take the chance. When the Broncs did take that chance and were brilliantly successful the QRL were livid. Full of petty envy and barely disguised hatred they did everything in their power to stymie the Broncos even to the point of supporting grossly biased and unfair decisions made by the southern overlords. They then lied to the people of Brisbane blatantly denying they were connected to the Crushers when in actuality were the biggest financial contributors. Had they supported the Broncos and helped them then qld football would have been so much better supported. The Broncos were not responsible for junior league or even domestic local league but they were the ones putting qld league front and centre nationally. League in Australia owes the Broncos a debt of gratitude . More than any other the Broncs injected new enthusiasm for the game and grew its popularity. I'm proud of them and their legacy. [/QUOTE]
