I'm not sold on Shibasaki being on a development list, I know Rogers and Smoothy got a gig that way, but I didn't love that either.
To me Shibasaki is a classic trian and trial insurance, he's with Wynnum stay there and we might need you after R11.
It's the same shoulder he did in 22 but he doesn't need it operated on again.
When he did it in 22 it was late August, and it took four months to recover.
It was April when Redcliffe brought in Hubner and Fuller and they had seven players out with injury. They were allowed to bring him in four weeks early before round 11 from their train and trial list- the Broncos aren't going to be allowed to do that for round one with no injuries in that position.
