With Oates retiring, I've had to think long & hard about who will be my current favourite Bronco. I've decided it's Ben Hunt.

Hunt will have to earn that back after his last decade of foolery

Once he had groin injuries he was never the same .
Couldn`t push through tackles anymore . Shadow of his former self . Probably caused him some depression and escalation of his addiction .

Groin injuries...?

Rewatching some games from 23 and 24, I wonder if it would be an idea to have piakura and riki swap sides.

Of the games I was watching, piakura seemed to have stronger games on the right. He is a better line runner than riki, and playing next to reynolds, who is much better ball player than ezra and creates holes, he may be better able to capitalise on this. Defensively, having and experienced players beside him and keeping him honest will help his defensive reads.

On the left, riki being the stronger defender of the two (at least reading the attack), and more of an effort player, would be better at helping ezra out (particularly if he gets his line speed and lateral movement of 23 back). As ezra is not a great ball player and doesn't put his second rowers into gaps often, this means his weaker running game is less of an impact.

I actually have a theory or prediction that we'll see Hetherington start in the 2nd row and Piakura will be on the bench.

He seriously can't be this injury prone. Broncos need to let him go and find someone else, who can actually stay fit.

I wouldn't be surprised if we chase Ben Hunt to be honest. Watch this space.

Knowing the media the surgery is stitches for a wound.

Hunt is 34 not exactly the age we need for a new half back

Looks like he's lost some weight, maybe a good shout.

It is nothing.

You either didn't bother to read the article, or you are just being disingenuous.

Here's a quote; "Luckily it wasn’t anything too serious, but the Broncos erred on the side of caution and sent Reynolds to undergo a minor clean-up procedure."

Sounds more like he wasn't handling Madge's hard training resume and had to find someway out.
