Brisbane is buzzing with energy and confidence ahead of the AFL and NRL grand finals, with fans eagerly anticipating the matches.
Amelia Hillhouse, a devoted Broncos NRL fan, is particularly excited for her second grand final experience.
Born prematurely in 2015, she was just five days old when her father dressed her in a maroon and gold jersey to watch the Broncos lose in an extra-time classic against the Cowboys.
This time, the atmosphere will be much more festive.
The Hillhouse family managed to secure tickets to both Broncos' home finals but unfortunately missed out on the opportunity to join the throngs of fans traveling to Sydney for the decider against Penrith.
In response, Daniel Hillhouse, Amelia's father, will be hosting a gathering at their home in Griffin, complete with an inflatable screen and projector.
The pop-up screen will have its first workout on Saturday, showcasing the Broncos' cross-code rivals, the Lions, as they compete for the AFL's premiership flag against Collingwood.
