Kevin Walters is building that bridge back to the past, and they are coming:
Petero Civoniceva:
“I was a big fan of the Broncos growing up in Redcliffe and they were my team. I got to debut in 1998 and I was beside the likes of Pearl (Renouf), Kevvie, Alfie and a team that will go down as the all-time greats. I was able to squeeze my way onto the bench and luckily for me, I got a shot just to be in that team. Then to go all the way to the grand final in 1998, that was an amazing start to my career.”
“We’ve had some past legends come into the group, like Trevor Gillmeister and Glenn Lazarus. As tough as last year was, it’s important moving forward that this young group understands who the men are who laid the platform before them. It’s about recognising the past but getting them involved too. With Kevvie there, he’s going to draw a lot more out of his players."
“There’s a real want from these players to be around the older players.”
We've got this
Steve Renouf:
“There’s always this debate around the ’92 team and the ’98 team. That ’98 team was pretty special because it had all these young guys coming through, who went on to become legends. Both those years we were minor premiers, so it was pretty special.”
“We always had a rivalry with the Storm during the mid-2000s, and we’d always have good battles against the Roosters but Canberra were the big ones. They were tough, even up here and we didn’t like going down there.”
