2025 Pre-season discussion. Training the house down.

Another rant...

When I talk of players not being "developed", Bukowski is pretty highly regarded, and even though he's nowhere near ready for NRL, up until now the Broncos haven't flinched with Mozer because Bukowski is coming through the ranks. However, as I noted last week, he was also also excluded from the camp because he's not likely to feature this year.

What makes it worse is that the Academy team were under the impression they would be playing on the weekend against men. They instead rock up to find they are playing the kids, and subsequently flog them. There was nothing learned from the game. It became an "everyone wants to jag a try" so processes went out the window.

These younger players should be back to training with the NRL team this week, let's see if that happens.

I think it was you can't have an NRL trial game this year because Bears are but have this instead gesture.

It was a BRL team against them so they were men, but I can certainly see why Head wouldn't be putting up his Cup side to play an academy.

It didn't include goal kicks either so you can probably add another 20 points to that total- Scott is good goal kicker. I would have liked to see if they gave him the goal kicking.

I personally think Bukowski throws the best pass out of all the Broncos' hookers. But that's never been tested by fatigue and having made 30 tackles- but against the Falcons he played 33 minutes for no noticeable change in his pass on Cup debut.
