Broncos Triumph Over Storm in Dramatic Second-Half Rally
Andrew Johns warned the Broncos they needed to start the second half strongly. The veteran commentator stressed the opening 10 to 15 minutes would be crucial.
Brisbane received first use of the ball after halftime. An early penalty followed when Cameron Munster was penalised for an attempted strip in a three-man tackle.
Immediate pressure inside the 20
The Broncos then won a set restart and another penalty. That sequence produced a full set inside the Storm’s 20-metre zone.
Reece Walsh used a double pump before sending Jordan Riki over for the try. The score cut into Melbourne’s lead quickly.
