Jesse Southwell finally got the Broncos on the board after 63 minutes, but the game was already done and dusted, with the Roosters soon celebrating a crushing victory.Retiring Roosters forward Millie Elliott said: "Everyone knows what that felt like and we definitely used that as motivation all season, not just in this game, all season," she said."And we worked so hard, I take my hat off to [head coach John] Strangey and the coaching staff, they really left no stone unturned this year and we wanted to put in a performance like that."Winning captain Isabelle Kelly said: "I knew that this year we're creating something special, and I think we're building and made that our best game yet. I love you guys and I'm so glad that we get to do this together."She added: "To Corban and Millie, you guys have been absolutely incredible for this NRLW competition, but mostly for the Roosters the impact that you guys have had on us, Millie, you being a mum, it's just created such a special bond for us to look forward to for many years. And you'll always be a Rooster."The heavy loss for Brisbane also marked the end of Ali Brigginshaw's stellar career in the women's game, as the veteran bowed out in disappointing fashion.
