Following the historic victory of the Broncos in the Qualifying Final, the team is shifting focus towards the Preliminary Final.

The Brisbane Broncos had a convincing win over the Melbourne Storm on Friday night and have earned the week off while waiting to find out their next opponents.

Matt Ballin, Broncos Assistant Coach told Peter Psaltis on Wide World of Sports, “It’s been a bit more of a relaxed week for the players, we’ve acknowledged that we earnt the right to have the week off…but we’ve tried to work pretty hard and make sure the players are focused on getting themselves right this week…so we can hit the ground running next week…”

“…The mentality of the coaches and the team has been work hard, front load your energy and you’ll get some rewards later on, you know it’s all working out well and we’ll prepare this week for the Warriors or the Knights and go about the same style of play,” Mr. Ballin continued.
