In the cutthroat world of Rugby League, loyalty and family bonds can often be overshadowed by the relentless pursuit of success.
For Dolphins forward Kenny Bromwich, the thought of parting ways with his brother Jesse next season hangs heavily in the air.
The speculation surrounding their future is like a cloud looming over their heads, threatening to break the bond they have built over the past 11 years.
These Kiwi warriors have been a formidable force, both with Melbourne Storm and now with the Dolphins.
Kenny joined the NRL ranks in 2013, following in the footsteps of his older brother Jesse who made his debut in 2010.
Jesse, a true legend of the game, achieved the magnificent feat of playing 300 games this year, etching his name in the annals of Rugby League history.
The Bromwich brothers have not only dominated the field but also the record books, with a staggering 220 matches played together.
Their match tally surpasses the Mortimer brothers, Steve and Peter, who played 164 games for Canterbury.
As the clock ticks on their time together, Kenny can't help but envision a fairy-tale ending for Jesse's career.
To see their beloved captain lead the Dolphins to their first finals appearance would be the crowning glory of a remarkable partnership.
The Dolphins came agonizingly close this year, but fell short of their objective.
However, if Kenny's dream were to come true, it would serve as a testament to their unyielding determination and unwavering brotherhood.
