Don’s wish was to meet the Brisbane Broncos
A Wish that called on decades of loyalty, love for the game, and unforgettable memories. This week, Don met the Brisbane Broncos and watched them run through a skills session.
Don is a true blue NRL fan, supporting the Broncos and even playing in the NSW Cup against the King, Wally Lewis. A tale he’ll tell anyone that’ll listen.
Keen to meet some of his favourite players at Red Hill, Don sat patiently on the sidelines as the Broncos ran through some drills in a light training session.
The Broncos couldn’t be more enthusiastic to meet Don, even gifting him a signed jersey. They spent time talking about his old rugby days and what the rest of the season looked like.
Joined by his son, it was a day Don won’t soon forget.
Thank you to our wonderful wish team Sophie, Abbey and Jessica for fulfilling this last wish and Ange Costes Photography for creating memories forever for his loved ones.
