When is the first time broncos stared to play? |
they are a football team Since this is in the Rugby League category, I assume you want to know about the Brisbane Broncos. As mentioned, they first joined the NSWRL (now the NRL) in 1988. Their captain was Wally Lewis. Their first game was against the defending premiers Manly, whom they beat quite convincingly. From memory, it was about 44-10. And I think they won their first 6 games of the season too. They went on to finish the year in 7th out of 16 teams, just missing the finals by one win (they had a five-team finals system in those days). Incidently, Manly (they beat them twice throughout the year) finished 4th and made the finals. They managed to win their first premiership in 1992, going back-to-back in 1993. They began playing in the NFL in 1960. 1963 from Denver The Broncos began play in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League and joined the NFL as part of the AFL-NFL Merger The Brisbane Broncos first played in the NSWRL (New South Wales Rugby League) [the forerunner to the NRL (National Rugby League)] in the year 1988. 2007 will be their 20th year. they started in 1988 in the rugby league national game. they have the same coach as when they started |
