CQ Capras Vs. Brisbane Broncos - YouTube
Game is joined in progress as Liam Pickersgill scores on the fringe for the Capras.
Brisbane hit back basically right away as the Capras allow the kick off to bounce over the dead ball line and concede a penalty. Cullen finds Kieran Duffin with a cut out pass and the Capras defence in the middle is exposed.
10-4 Broncos
Then Cullen cuts the Capras right up the middle, finds Greinke who turns it left to Taefu who is caught by Rhys Williams. On the next play, Cullen goes down the blind but Alick is deemed to have touched the sideline as he attempts to ground the ball.
The disappointment quickly fades as Hughie Stanley makes a meal out of it out at dummy half. It was one of those situations where a penalty could have been given, but Stanley's attempt to milk it was silly. Broncos with the scrum 15m out work their way to a backline play and Paia'Aua slices the Capras apart in heavy traffic to score.
14-4 Broncos
Brisbane repay the favour seemingly straight away as Adams (?) spills it deep inside his own half gifting Capras a set in prime field position. However, the Broncos defence holds resolute and Barba is able to return a fairly drab grubber back into the field of play.
Broncos make their way up field and Cullen attempts a 40/20 which goes close but the ball stops just before the line. However, Capras turn it over inside their own half. The break is short lived as Cullen drops the ball cold as he takes the quick tap and is looking very likely near the line.
Capras rebound with exactly what the doctor ordered a TRY. After working their way down the field, the Capras put one up the air, which Barba spills and Blake Wallace picks up and beats the cover defence to score a very timely four pointer just before half-time.
14-10 Broncos
To make matters worse, Brisbane compound the error by kicking out on the field. Capras with one more shot at the Broncos line but Sam Pierce knocks on just as the Capras were looking likely.
Half-Time
Brisbane off to a poor start, two spilled balls inside their own half from Lee & Paia'Aua respectively. Weight of possession tells on the Broncos as Duffin & Adams fail to take on prop John Clayton who CHARGES his way over the line.
16-14 Capras
With all the momentum, Capras make good ground and Pearson puts up a towering bomb, which Paul Barba does a good job of taking, but the cover defence tackles him in the in-goal. Goal line drop out and in a soft try, Gallen forces his way over from dummy half to extend the lead.
22-14 Capras
Capras are making ground with ease and in a moment of pure deja vu, five eigth Pearson puts up another towering bomb, but this time Barba is able to keep the ball in the field of play. Then out of no where, Sam Gee makes a BIG break through the middle, links up with Paia'Aua who throws a speculator of a pass to Jayden Nikorima to score a SENSATIONAL try right underneath the hay-diddle-diddle (Rugby League 2003 reference yo).
22-20 Capras
Off the back of a really good Rhys Williams kick return, the Capras surge deep into the Broncos half and cause a turn-over as one of the Broncos at the line spills a grubber from #1, but it can't be Stanley, perhaps it's Baker? Anyways, the weight of possession once again tells and Baker (?) sends Delapena over on the blindside.
28-20 Capras
From here, the Capras receive a couple of opportunities at the Broncos line but simple mistakes prevent them from icing this game. Brisbane are awarded a penalty and given a sniff at a comeback, but a Byrnes pass is picked off by former NYC Player Brent Williams who goes 60m to score and put the game to bed.
34-20 Capras
Capras make a mistake off the kick off and then concede a soft penalty which eventually bites them in the ass as Jayden Berrell borrows his way over from dummy half to add some respectibility to the scoreline.
34-24 Capras
Broncos try to roll the dice late in the game, but they run out of time and the Capras hold onto win a solid come from behind victory.
