Another nice raid from the Roosters ends with Sam Walker chipping a kick into the in-goal and Brisbane centre Grant Anderson is forced to take the ball over the dead-ball line.
This time Reece Walsh goes short with the dropout, with a low, hard grubber towards the sideline, and Hugo Savala fails to grab it cleanly and Jesse Arthars pounces on it.
Thene there’s a chaotic couple of minutes, with Mark Nawaqanitawase leaping to grab an intercept, only for Payne Haas to return serve with an intercept of his own a few tackles later (though Haas’s comes from a scrappy pass that goes to ground).
Then Walsh takes a 40-metre pop shot for a field goal, which goes wide.
Broncos 12, Roosters 12 after 37 minutes
