NRL enthusiasts have laid into Dolphins playmaker Anthony Milford following a controversial blindside hit on Broncos fullback Reece Walsh that some have deemed a "dog shot."
The Broncos ultimately triumphed with a 28-14 victory, but only held a slim 6-4 lead at halftime after a fiercely competitive first half, especially considering the Dolphins lost fullback Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow to a hamstring injury midway through the match.
This latest blow adds to their extensive injury toll, with key players such as Felise Kaufusi, Tom Flegler, and Herbie Farnworth already sidelined due to injuries sustained in the previous week.
Despite the intense Battle of Brisbane living up to its reputation, the NRL community has not held back in criticizing Milford's controversial hit.
In a pivotal moment just before halftime, the Broncos unleashed a midfield bomb that was left to bounce, setting the stage for more drama in this epic clash.
