Michael Maguire inspired Broncos’ comeback, ending a 19-year drought with a thrilling 26-22 grand final victory.
“You’ve been here before; your best half is about to come”.
That was the simple message from serial winner Michael Maguire to Brisbane players as they stared down a 22-12 halftime deficit in Sunday’s epic grand final against the Storm at Accor Stadium.
The Broncos had come from behind to beat the minor premiers, Canberra, and four-time back-to-back premiers Penrith in successive finals matches and they did it again to triumph 26-22 and claim the club’s first premiership in 19-years.
