Match Summary

The Broncos overcame a disrupted fortnight and shocking weather conditions in Toowoomba to record a commanding 40-8 trial victory over last year's Grand Final opponents, Sydney Roosters. The Broncos were rarely troubled by the Roosters, running in 7 tries to 2. Heavy fog as the entire town was engulfed in a major rain system and regular heavy showers didn't stop the Broncos from unleashing some vintage football, with halves Scott Prince and Shaun Berrigan combining far better than last week's shock loss to St Helens.
