Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2726417, member: 1899"] The Manly Sea Eagles would hit the ground running, throwing everything at the Broncos but Bennett's robust defence would account for their raids. Then in true Broncos fashion, they'd go on the counter-attack and draw first blood 4-0 Broncos. Manly would work their way back into the contest and after a tough opening stanza would crack the Broncos late through the brilliance of Bozo. With the Broncos on the ropes, Manly would extend their lead into the break after some great slight of hand from Lyons. Cliffy takes the ball to the line in trademark fashion, finds Menzies who hits the gap and Manly go to a 10-4 lead. After a razzing from coach Bennett, Brisbane would begin the second half better, scoring through a well worked backline play to Renouf. 10-all Both teams continue going at one another, but Manly's over-eagerness gets the better of them, conceding a penalty right on the line. 12-10 Broncos Manly recover through Brett Stewart who slices through the Broncos defence before finding Eadie. 16-12 Sea Eagles with only 15 to go. Not to be out-done, Kerrod tears the Sea Eagles up through the middle before being brought down short. Knowing what must be done, Alf charges onto the ball, past some tired defence and wraps it up for the Broncos 18-16. Then to rub salt in the would, Sailor accepts a short-goal drop out races 40 odd metres before being brought down. From dummy half, Walters zig zags past the marker and scores to cap off a MotM performance from the underrated #9. [/QUOTE]
