I've seen lockyer lost Origin Deciders and Test matches but he never reacted to those losses like how he did to this game. This game will be forever haunt him for the rest of his life.
I still have the front page of the courier mail with that image of Locky. Ill never forget the passion he displayed in that moment, it was a painful one but it showed how much that jersey meant to him
I was at the game and I have never heard a more deafening silence than when Inglis crossed right at the end. Even some of the Storm fans were in stunned shock, Broncos fans had hands on heads and near tears in eyes. No one could believe what just happened and still haven’t seen a finish that left everyone there in pure disbelief, you’d honestly think someone just died from that atmosphere
@@mitchellr3922 true but at that point in the game you would think every broncos player would be thinking about two things ball security and getting to the 5th tackle and giving it to a half for a kick. The big running play with less than a minute and a half left isnt warranted. Im a broncos fan but they seem to be very good at bottling it with barely any time left on the clock in semis or grand finals.
Heartbreaking to this day. Painfully heartbreaking for a long time. Brisbane should have won that in all truth. But, they didn't. Brisbane invited Melbourne into a finish like this with some cheap poor errors, mainly ball security! to close it out.
Suggestions: Cowboys vs Roosters Preliminary Final 2017 Roosters vs Rabbitohs 1994 (idk which round) Game 3 Origin 2006 Storm vs Roosters 2018 GF Eels vs Broncos Finals knockout Round 1 2019
I will always love this game, as a Manly fan I was gutted Storm were about to be knocked out so there would be no revenge GF. Thank you Mr Simms for that gift, let's all hope the 40-0 record will NEVER be beaten.
@@kadeliasandow4884 I know that Manly were involved in the Peptide scandal with The Sharks, and paid off the NRL, plus I know that Storm played 7 more Grand Finals after that year and won 4 including last years 2020 Premiership while living away from their family for over 5 months, and I know that Manly finished in the bottom 8 in 13th place in 2020 and still can't put an alright team on the field for 2021... So yeah... Now I know! In other words sit down Kadelia, the adults are talking, just go sort out ya COVID beaches!!! (Insert Mic Drop Here!)
@@khankake9576 cam smith got suspended after this game that may have led that GF the Manly sea eagles put the (over the cap) storm in the past tense before they knew it
Nah Greatest fullback to play the game defensively and attacking brilliant everyone only hates him and the storm of how good they are there is no denying it
Here after Bloke in a Bar interview with Cam Smith. Forgot how good this game was 👏
lol same
What’s the time stamp?
Highest-quality NRL game of all time.
I remember my 15 year old screaming in the living room when Inglis crossed in the corner. Magnificent⚡️
Two weeks is a long time in Sport, the highs and lows of a fan

@@hosey8574 Thats your opinion soccer is more popular tho but the guy comments that everywhere
Why did it haunt him
The grandfinal that year will haunt the Melbourne players who played in that grandfinal for the rest of their lives

Good I’m glad they lost

Same bro hahah
I’m a storm fan but man I do feel for lockyer on that one. The guy is a legend!
I felt for good old Wayne Bennett. He was on his way down to congratulate his boys when Melbourne scored
Great cheaters in game of rugby league
This game broke my heart. It hurt me more than losing the grand final to the cowboys in “15”.
would you have preferred to be beaten 40-0 the next week though ? lol
@@adamthompson5368 broncos would’ve done a lot better than the storm did if they played the grand final that year
@@adamthompson5368 The week after this game was the prelims, what you talking about? Lol
What about now?
this was the best game ever
Two NRL dynasties come together...
Yeah a false dynasty 4 years erased.
Storm had a false dynasty built on systematic cheating at the time.
😂How were Broncos ever a dynasty
@@tigerwarsaw991992 to 2008
Storm yes. Brisbane nahh. Storm 06 to 09 then 16 to 18. Thats dynasty bro. Penrith is the definition of Dynasty. 20 to 23

Best game ever...
my dad never liked ashton sims. i never understood why, until this game
there was a huge impact in the tackle, it could have happened to anyone at that stage of the game where forwards are exhausted.

Wow, 12 year's ago already.
1:41:15 Matt Geyer acting like he had hair.
While Lockyer pulled the last of his out.
Thank goodness origin is still happening. Can't wait.
This should be a grand final match...A moment that will haunt Locker for the rest of his life.
@MUFC no cares you bot. Your team isn't doing well in the premier league today are they?
Haunt a 4time premiership winner?
The grandfinal in 2008 will Haunt the Melbourne players who played in that grandfinal for the rest of their lives
@@davidkila6823 up the bronx 🐎
@@davidkila6823 Most of those in the 2008 GF were multiple premiership winners too mate. lol
The game looks very different now I miss this! RIP good footy

Billy slater had 2 blatant knock ons in the first 15 minutes, neither of them picked up
Both of them were illegally stripped out by Bronx so should of been a penalty anyway
That should've been the grand final. Storm wasted their time going against manly only to get flogged.
Official match of the passing of the torch of greatest team of the era changed
What is it with Broncos fans celebrating before the 80th minute?
Jerseys where decent back then. Love the Bronx one

No talent

Last try at 1:37:33 and 1:41:00

Cam Smiths’ book is why I’m here…anyone else? Hahahha
To think they struggled to get that win over Brisbane even when they were in breach of the cap, Brisbane has lost their heart and tonight it shows.
Enjoyed this at the time not for Storm winning but for the LOL@Broncos. It’s been usurped by Cowboys in ‘15 and Panthers in ‘23 though.
After this game, I was really glad Manly crushed storms 40-0.
same here,

A loss is a loss. Anything more then that, is a sook making excuses.😂
Wasted their energy celebrating after this game only to get a historical grandfinal flogging by Manly in the big dance.
Cry
They still had another game after this before the GF. lol
And then storm get 40-0 in final.
And then won 4 in 11 years 😂
@@jude305 actually they only won 2 legit ones stripped the other 2 for cheating
@@adamthompson5368 Well if you really wanna get technical, they were "cheating" this game.
The Melbourne's won it with their dirty tactics
won to be beaten 40-0 one week later lol
Nope, they played Cronulla the following week.
Storms were the dirtiest team n its shown right in this game
Billy was always a dirty defender. Always put his leg and boot out....
Nah Greatest fullback to play the game defensively and attacking brilliant everyone only hates him and the storm of how good they are there is no denying it
Broncos sore loser. Bet you weren't complaining about him when he played for QLD and AUS.
ho storm
Then they get smashed by Manly.... Karma
And then won 4 in 11 years 😂😳
Karma for winning? Lol sore losers
