After briefly trialing Brodie Croft at no.7 on Tuesday, coach Kevin Walters has reinstated the future of the Broncos Tom Dearden at halfback for today's session. Walters insists the pair are "neck and neck" to partner Anthony Milford, who appears rusted into the five-eighth role.
Tom Flegler was asked to comment:
“You’ll have to ask Kevvie. Whoever gets picked will be the man for the job. I’m sure the other person will go to Q-Cup and try their hardest. It’s really important to lay a good platform in the middle. Forwards play a massive role in winning a game. The better we can play makes the rest of the boys’ jobs a lot easier.”
“I’m now six months post-op. I had a little scare on the weekend and didn’t want to risk it in a trial so I came off. I was a bit nervous about it but there’s nothing wrong. I’m fit to play round one, there’s no dramas there. I was always going to be a bit nervous in the first few games, but once I get my confidence back after a few games I’m sure I’ll be right. You can’t hide. The best thing to do is rip in straight away. It’s going to be a good contest. You know our history with Parramatta so we’ll be looking to get one up on them. We owe them heaps.”
Cosmetic injury
In other training news neither Alex Glenn nor Pat Carrigan trained due to NRL season launch commitments in Sydney. And Jordan Riki and Matt Lodge were involved in a mid-field collision sending Riki from the pitch with a shoulder "burner" only to return moments later.
