Over 17 years and more than 350 NRL games, Ben Hunt has achieved pretty much all you can on a football field.
But until Sunday, he had never scored a match-winning field goal.
After his remarkable 94th-minute winner against Canberra at the weekend, he is full of belief that in three weeks' time he will have crossed off another achievement missing from his list: a premiership with his beloved Broncos.
Hunt hasn't played in a grand final since 2015, when his infamous drop from the restart allowed Jonathan Thurston to kick a golden point field goal.
After falling out of love with the game at St George Illawarra, he's now just one match away from a second shot at a premiership - at the club where he started his career.
"It would definitely mean a lot, it really would," he told AAP.
"The demons of 2015 are long gone, but yeah, it'll definitely be special to come back to this great club and be part of something that you can remember for the rest of your life."
Speaking in the sheds after the match, the 35-year-old said the "bizarre" result was still sinking in.
Down 28-12 in the second half with star players Reece Walsh and Pat Carrigan in the sin bin, the Broncos managed to square the points after the full-time siren before surviving a disallowed try to the Raiders.
When Hunt stepped up to take a shot at clinching a long-range field goal to seal the game in golden point after extra time, the emotion and the pressure rushed away.
"The last sort of things that run through your head as a kicker is just keep your head down and follow through the ball," he said.
"Just keep telling yourself - you've practised it a million times and, yeah, I just hit it pretty sweet to be fair.
"I don't know, it's just kind of like we were meant to win today."

Coach Michael Maguire was delighted for his halfback.
"It couldn't have happened to a better bloke," he said.
"Yeah, you go through a lot as a player in your career, and he's obviously been through plenty, and to see him there standing at the end with obviously the arms up, and then his players being around him - they're special moments. You've got to share those together.
"But Hunty knows what he's come here for. He's come back to the club to be able to create, obviously, what's ahead."
The Broncos will relish the extra recovery time as they prepare to host the winner of Penrith and Canterbury in a preliminary final on Saturday week.
But Maguire could be without Walsh after he was sin-binned for an apparent headbutt on Hudson Young, before flipping the bird at Raiders fans on his way off the ground.
"I'd have to have a look at it. They were at each other and it was probably more just a conversation," Maguire said of Walsh's altercation.
"They were at each other. There is emotion out there."
Carrigan also faces a nervous wait for the match review committee after he was placed on report for a high shot on Morgan Smithies.
