Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3216059, member: 9853"] [COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)][I][B]Walters[/B] has confirmed [B]TPJ's [/B]return for the trial against [B]Wynnum-Manly[/B] at Kitchener Park next Friday night:[/I] “Some of our bigger men who didn’t play a lot of football last year like [B]Matt Lodge[/B] and [B]Tevita Pangai [/B]will play next week. (Pangai) will be in the middle somewhere, I don’t know what number he will have on his back. The players have been really good with everything we’ve introduced to them this year. They’re taking it all on board. I can see the gradual improvement from when we first came together in November to now. There’s been some really positive signs." “They need to now play some football and we’ll get that next week against Wynnum then the following weekend in our major trial against the Cowboys (at Redcliffe). Trials in recent years haven’t been so important, but this year given the one (major) trial the players will only get one opportunity to get themselves fit for round one.” [ATTACH type="full"]11342[/ATTACH][/COLOR] He/Him/Khaleesi [COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)][I][B]Albert Kelly [/B]is back at Red Hill, after being sent to purgatory for being a slug:[/I] “He’s piled on a few kilos so we had to send him back to Souths (Logan) to do some more running. But with five-eighth Anthony Milford (broken hand) in danger of missing Round 1, Walters said he wanted scrumbase options to partner halfback Tom Dearden. He’s got great experience and with the loss of Anthony Milford we need another half at training. I’ve got to say he’s been very impressive with what he’s doing. He’s quite an experienced player. He had a lovely career at the Titans and in England." “He’s welcome back and lost a bit of weight as well which is great. He’s in good nick. He had a hamstring problem so we felt it was best he went away and fixed that. He did that over the Christmas period. He certainly is (in the mix for round one). Because of the season the Broncos had last year, they are all fighting for positions. There’s plenty of competition in the group. At training you can see the competitiveness around the players. We’ve been enjoying that. We’ve got trials in the next couple of weeks which are very important for a lot of players to see who will take the field against Parramatta in round one.” [I]Broncos physiotherapist [B]Luke Anning[/B] hopes [B]Anthony Milford[/B] will make the opening round:[/I] “Anthony had surgery last Thursday and is progressing really well considering it’s only a week old. We’re aiming for him to return to play for round one - that would be our hope. But we’ll see how he’s going because he has a lot of hurdles to overcome before we can confirm that, including clearance from the doctor.” McHunt[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
