Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2720280, member: 1899"] ROUND 13 BRISBANE 26; ST GEORGE 22 at Lang Park Brisbane won a tightly contested clash with St George 26-22 in this holiday Monday game but there were few smiles in the Broncos dressing room after the match. Spoilt opportunities and the failure to put the game beyond the Dragons’ reach was the key to the Broncos disappointment. The most positive aspect of the match to the Broncos was the form of centre Rohan Teevan and of Gene Miles who starred in the second-row. Miles, dropped from the Australian team for the 100[SUP]th[/SUP] Test match against Great Britain, was devastating in the Broncos’ back row. He scored one try and had a hand in two others as he went on a home ground rampage. Teevan, replacing Miles in the centres, was blistering in attack, twice scorching across Saints’ line and backing it up with tough defence. Brisbane’s biggest Winfield Cup crowd of 19, 954 thrilled to the eight spectacular tries and the closeness of the contest – but neither camp was happy with the massive error rate. BRISBANE 26 (Teevan 2, Miles, Johns tries; Matterson 5 goals) defeated ST GEORGE 22 (Walford 2, Mohr, Young tries; Walford 3 goals) Brisbane: Shane Duffy, Michael Hancock, Chris Johns, Rohan Teevan, Joe Kilroy Wally Lewis, Allan Langer Greg Dowling, Greg Conescu, Andrew Tessmann, Gene Miles, Brett Le Man, Terry Matterson. Reserves: Kerrod Walters, Billy Noke St George Clinton Mohr, Bert Gordon, Peter Gill, Michael Beattie, Ricky Walford Steve Robinson, Brett Clark Paul Osbourne, Trevor Bailey, Craig Young, Wally Fullerton-Smith, Graeme Wynn, Geoff Selby Reserves: Mark Blackburn [/QUOTE]
