Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2882823, member: 1899"] For 60 minutes, Brisbane made Melbourne as nervous as I'd seen them all season. The up-tempo play, the tit for tat in the ruck and the desperate goal line defence it was tremendous but they just couldn't execute. You could tell Melbourne took a lot of confidence out of that 0 scoreline and once Slater scored it was all over. Sadly the Broncos thought so as well and left us with a horrible final impression. Those efforts right at the death weren't good enough and it was disgraceful the way they just handed Melbourne points. I thought the backrow was tremendous. Gillett, Glenn and McGuire were everywhere and really stuck it to the Melbourne forwards. Even after the disappointment of the evening, I couldn't help but admire and be proud of their efforts on the field. Seriously if the selectors have any brains, all three will feature for their respective nations in the World Cup. As others have stated, for a guy who was on the chopping block not that long ago, Alex Glenn has been just about the Broncos best player this year. Otherwise you just have to hand it to Melbourne. They've got this combination that's endured 17 seasons together (since their Norths colts day) and Bellamy gets all the others to buy into this system that flows like a machine. I haven't seen a Storm side play this well since 2007 and I've got no doubt they'll go onto win the premiership. [/QUOTE]
