“Ezra Mam is only 19 years of age. A lot of players plan the things they do, but he has a plan, but he works his way around the things he can do within the plan.” He gets up in the air. He just has a good knack of knowing what play to do at the right time on a football field and that is hard to do. He reminds Billy Slater that he is still around. “He hasn’t played in the NRL in a couple of years.” “Right at the end of the first half, a try to Cameron Munster and a try to Jahrome Hughes,” Alexander said. “It was a great ball from Capewell for him to dive over in the corner.” “The Broncos hit back with a couple of brilliant tries to their wingers,” Tallis said. “The last try of the first half to Jahrome Hughes reminded me of Billy Slater, Cameron Smith and Cooper Cronk back in the day,” Marshall said. “I don’t ever say things like this but I would go as far as to say he is the best player in the game at the moment,” Marshall said. The Broncos scored a consolation try to Mam, which saw the score reflect the closeness of the contest, but the Storm were too classy in the end.
Melbourne roar back after trailing 16-6 in the first half to halt Broncos' seven-match winning streak.
Meaney converts to reduce the deficit to four. 35 min: Cobbo fumbles a Jahrome Hughes kick and Munster pounces on the loose ball and scores. A very different Broncos team in 2022. Hard to believe Melbourne belted Brisbane 40-6 on this same turf last year. 38 min: Ezra Mam grabs a late consolation try for the Broncos, backing up a long break by Billy Walters. Kick unsuccessful. Too little, too late though.
Melbourne outlasted the Broncos in an entertaining clash at AAMI Park on Friday night.
“But apart from that, we were in the fight and it was good to get a late try against them as well. “They’ve been the benchmark team for a long time and we’re on the way up. But it’s OK, we’ve got plenty of rounds left to fix ourselves up and get going again.” They are a good side, they’ve earned their spot in the top four,” he said. “To put 26 points on them in a row is a pretty good effort.
