The first NSW player we hear from at full-time is Bradman Best – the man who ran 90 metres to score the Blues fourth try of the night.
“Doesn’t get much better than this, New South Wales,” Best yelled into the microphone after full-time at Suncorp Stadium.
“This is what dreams are made of – since I was a little kid.”

Speaking of that (almost) length of the field try, Best said he was “lucky” the ball fell into his lap. But Best saved the…uh, best for last, with a taunt to all the Queenslanders left watching.
“We know how much Queensland carry on, so to come here and do it at their home ground, it doesn’t get much better,” Best said.
