Turbo ‘gone’, Broncos put on try-scoring blitz
While the crowd violence was catching our attention, the Broncos were carrying on towards victory with Corey Oates scoring a quickfire double.
And in nightmare news for the Sea Eagles, Tom Trbojevic looks a shadow of himself and is clearly carrying a leg injury. He’s still wearing heavy strapping tape on his knee after returning from a PCL injury last week, and he’s had a long history of hamstring injuries.
With Manly dead and buried early in the second half, club legend Paul Vautin couldn’t believe Sea Eagles coach Des Hasler had left his superstar out there.
“He’s goneskies,” Vautin said in commentary. “You see when Corey Oates scores he can’t get over to make the play. I reckon he’s batting at about 70 per cent.”
Vautin later added: “I can’t believe they’ve left him out there.”
