It was 1995 and in a year the Broncos went close to winning the premiership, they gave the Warriors a round 22 late-season 44-12 pasting. The great Steve Renouf would cross the paint four times, a feat few people have managed in a premiership game. Wendell sailor, Darren Smith, Michael Hancock and Allan Langer would also score tries. There was also a young blonde teenager on the bench for the Broncos that day that people knew little about. They would soon come to know Darren Lockyer’s name very well. The match tomorrow night will mark 15 years to the day since this clash with the Broncos to wear their heritage jersey to mark the occasion.
