Team Tips
Team Tips: Payne Haas (shoulder), Te Maire Martin (ribs) and Corey Jensen (calf) have all been ruled out after suffering injuries against the Cowboys. “Scans show that Te Maire Martin has sustained fractured rib cartilage and he will definitely miss this week’s game against the Dragons, with his return based on how the injury presents in the weeks ahead,” the Broncos said in a statement. “Corey Jensen has picked up a Grade 2 calf strain which can involve a number of weeks of rehab but knowing Corey’s dedication to his training and preparation, he’ll return as fast as possible.” TC Robati (broken arm) was injured in reserve grade alongside backrower.
Brendan Piakura (head knock). Tesi Niu (hamstring) is scheduled to return and would slot in at fullback. It bring the injury toll to six while a further four stars unavailable through Origin duties. Pete Badel, meanwhile, reports Zac Hosking the son of former Manly prop David Hosking, will make his debut.
Team Tips: Mat Feagai went off in second half with leg injury.
Bit of an exaggeration as far as the players ruled out for them. One star, a couple of fringe first graders and a couple of QLD Cup players are out.
For us, it'll be good to see Sullivan and Amone get a chance to see what they can do together.
