Brisbane have come from behind against the Sydney Roosters to secure captain Corey Parker a victory in his final NRL regular-season match.The Broncos overcame a sloppy opening 30 minutes on Thursday night to post a 24-14 win at Suncorp Stadium in Parkers 154th NRL match.Coach Wayne Bennett will have plenty of questions after an underwhelming display ahead of the finals, however the victory does lift Brisbane into fourth on the ladder.Fifth-placed North Queensland need to beat Gold Coast on Saturday in Townsville for the premiers to secure a top-four finish.Just like they did last weekend against Cronulla, the 14th-placed Roosters started brightly.Tries to Dale Copley and Connor Watson opened up a 14-0 lead after 28 minutes.But the Broncos all but erased that margin by halftime when a double strike by Anthony Milford and James Roberts ensured the score was just 14-12 at the break.Roberts try would have particularly upset Roosters coach Trent Robinson with winger Daniel Tupou spilling a second-tackle kick by the Broncos to gift the home team a try.Brisbane were lucky to still be in the contest after a half in which they completed just eight of 15 sets and made 23 tackles inside their 20 to none by the Roosters.Scores were levelled 11 minutes into the second half and then a sweeping move put Jordan Kahu over in the 56th minute for the Broncos to hit the front for the first time.The Broncos dominated the remaining minutes but it took a broken-play break by Roberts in the 75th minute and then a quick-thinking grubber to find Kahu which ensured the Broncos took out the match.Ex-Bronco Copley, whose first-half try was his third this year against his old club, failed to complete the opening stanza when he was knocked out trying to tackle Kahu.Its Copleys third concussion this season and comes just three weeks after being knocked out in the seventh minute of the Roosters shock round-23 win over the Cowboys.The Roosters 18th loss of the season ensures the Tricolours - minor premiers the previous three seasons - will end the year in 15th.Parker praised his teams response at halftime after their sluggish start to the match.The first half, we didnt do ourselves any favours, he said.We re-addressed where we wanted to go at halftime and the response to that was very good.Keeping them scoreless in the second half and we were able to build some momentum and pressure and got the job done.Robinson said the performance had shown elements of fight but was ultimately symptomatic of a season that had been a huge disappointment.Thought we were right in the game, thought we played really well and then just errors under pressure, Id say, in the last 20 really cost us, he said.Really proud of them but, again, not good enough.

Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, Kaka and Andrea Pirlo are among the players already competing in the MLS, which returns this weekend for its 20th season. With Ashley Cole and Nigel de Jong also having traded European football for the MLS this summer, Garber believes even more established foreign players will make the move to the United States in the future. I saw an interview that Steven Gerrard did where he said the league is far more competitive than he thought when he was playing in the Premier League. So many international players are seeing our league and watching it on broadcast around the world, Garber told Sky Sports News HQ. LA Galaxy duo Steven Gerrard and Robbie Keane are preparing for the new season Our sport continues to grow in this country, our clubs are more connected with the community, our stadiums are getting bigger and better, the competition is getting more intense and theres more of a soccer nation here in the US. There are going to be more international players looking to come over to our shores. When asked whether he felt any of the MLS clubs could compete against European footballs elite sides, Garber added: Well, probably not on a day-to-day basis. We are still a young league, our clubs are still growing and developing. Frank Lampard is set for his second season with New York City The American players that make up the core of our rosters continue to improve, but the European leagues have a 100-year head start on us and well continue to do all we can to get bigger, better and stronger.dddddddddddd.
