Broncos players are banning alcohol to end a 19-year premiership drought, inspired by 2006 champions.
Broncos stars have taken a page from the book of the club's 2006 premiership heroes by implementing a squad-wide booze ban in their bid to break Brisbane's 19-year title drought this season.
Brisbane players have revealed their ultimate sacrifice ahead of Sunday's finals blockbuster against Canberra - swearing off alcohol in their quest to snap the longest premiership drought in Broncos history.
Wayne Bennett's class of 2006 famously shunned the demon drink in the run to the finals and the teetotalling attitude inspired Brisbane's charge to an epic grand-final boilover of the Storm.
Now Michael Maguire's troops are leaving no stone unturned, with Brisbane's leadership group driving an "unwritten law" to shun the booze as a sign of the professionalism required to win the club's seventh premiership.
