An emotional Broncos coach Kevin Walters said his men are “pissed off” after letting slip the club’s first premiership in 17 years on Sunday night.
The Broncos were charging towards the title when they led the Panthers 24-8 after 60 minutes following a second hat-trick from Ezra Mam.
“I just feel for the boys in there that gave so much, not just tonight but all season and then to finish like that. “That second half in that period there for 20 minutes, that’s the Broncos I know and we’ll get there, doing that for 80 .“We’re not there yet but when we do we’ll win premierships and that’s what it’s about. We’re not far off, we’re getting there, we’re a lot closer now than we were 12 months ago.”
“You try and find things in the game but it’s just the way the game goes and I’ve been in games when that’s happened to me and I’ve been on the other side of it when he didn’t go our way for whatever reason. Broncos skipper Reynolds said the message to his players in the second half was to “keep playing footy”.
