WALLY LEWIS The Broncos simply could not have done without The King, the Queensland and Australian captain, during the club s foray into the NRL. The first Queenslander to be immortalised, Lewis made an instant impact when he scored two tries in Brisbane s rollicking first round win over premiers Manly - one of which was a steam rolling burst which beat seven defenders from 18m out. Gene Miles runs the ball for Wynnum Manly.
GENE MILES The most underrated great in rugby league who NSW legends like Steve Roach and Geoff Toovey rank as among their favourite footballers to play with. Miles was so good he was at one stage the best centre in the world, and when he moved to the second rower for the Broncos first season he became an automatic selection in that position for Queensland and Australia.
