After a miserable 18 months for Brisbane, Andrew Johns can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel, saying "I like what the Broncos are doing".
Kevin Walters' 15th-placed side have a winnable game tomorrow night against Queensland rivals the Cowboys and a victory would put them three wins clear of the battling Bulldogs, almost guaranteeing that they would not face the embarrassment of a second consecutive wooden spoon.
Even more promisingly, Johns is seeing signs of a resurgence at a club that has gone from the envy of the competition to a laughing stock.
"They're just lacking some class in those key positions in the halves but they're playing tough… Their young forward pack, gee they've got some good young forwards," Johns told Brad Fittler on Wide World of Sports Freddy & Joey's Tips.
While Johns tipped the Broncos, Fittler wasn't so convinced arguing the Cowboys had played well without getting a result against the Storm and Roosters over the last fortnight.
