Even I can't claim I foresaw Blair being a future captain. But I think Bennett will reward one of the one-clubbers.
The Broncos full-strength side largely picks itself at this stage. Copley comes in for the retired skipper and McGuire comes back into the side for the departing Dodds. Everything else remains the same, form pending.
What I'm interested in is...
Who will captain the side? Will they go for another stop-gap? Or will they look ahead? Personally, only one guy strikes me as a captain and he happens to be a Test captain. The rest seem too erratic for me.
Depth. All these 17 names, all look great and I love the fact we can name drop the likes of Anthony Milford, Corey Parker and Corey Oates in this side, but what if they go down, who comes in? One of the most underrated aspects of the Broncos 2015 was their ability to call up players who could do a job. With a few players departing, who will be some of the new faces to step up?
NYC. It's an end of an era for the side. A couple of those boys had played 4 seasons of NYC, starting when they had just turned 17. Looking forward, I'd be interested to see the next crop and whether we'll have a few prospects to look forward to.
