Pre-season

But that’s the thing, when he played fullback, he was actually really good defensively but he offered absolutely nothing in attack. He didn’t pass, he didn’t run and he didn’t support play whatsoever. Hopefully Kevvie gets him doing at least support play and some kicking. The guy has an amazing boot, why we haven’t used that in general play is beyond me.
Wouldn't be a Broncos preseason without multiple fucking injuries.
 
It seems to be a bit of a Broncos' tradition these days. The preferred fullback goes down not far out from the season proper and Oates having injured some part of himself.
 

**** me dead... can we just get a couple games in before we lose half our squad to injuries 🙄🙄

Worst case for an ankle would by high ankle sprain / syndesmosis... I think that's usually 4-8 weeks?? But they can also linger throughout a season if not rehabbed correctly

Best case is a rolled ankle which is 1-2 weeks.

Knowing our medicos it'll probably be diagnosed as a sprained ankle and Isaako will be running around on 1 leg with a high ankle sprain in 2 weeks time

the ongoing issue is ankle bruising from a training session before the christmas break, according to the CM. they also say he is axpected back to full strength in 1-2 weeks

That's not too bad then 👌
 
Jamayne Isaako is expected to return to training quickly after a minor ankle injury at training today.

Broncos Head of Performance Andrew Croll said: “Jamayne sustained a lateral ankle sprain at training today. After initial assessment we believe he will make a fast recovery and return to training next week.”
 
Saw Jamayne running in the rehab group today, didn't seem to be limping or anything.
 
Dobbo on the radio this morning said Milf came back after Christmas 2kg lighter for the first time ever. Then went on to say reckons Macca will be starting this year and is Smokie for Captain
Probably not all that hard to determine if he'll start. Pretty sure the teams wear different shirts when training to identify who's the starter and who's the reserve.

The call that he could be captain is probably just a throw back to last year when the article for Milf to captain came out... it was less likely if he wasn't starting, but if he does start it increases his chances.

I think it's not unreasonable for Macca to start next year with Turps off the bench after 30min and playing out the game.

Can't really afford 2 substitutions for your hooker every game.

Macca wont offer much, but he usually picks up his game when there is competition for places. He knows Turps is breathing down his neck so a Macca competing for his role is a good thing.
