Message: [QUOTE="broncsgoat, post: 2970118, member: 8475"] THE Broncos insist Origin lock Josh McGuire will be fit for Saturday’s blockbuster clash with the Roosters following his mysterious departure from training on Monday morning. McGuire walked off the Broncos’ training field at Red Hill just five minutes into the session following a discussion with coach Wayne Bennett. The official line from the Broncos was McGuire was ill and left the field for treatment.

The Broncos have a long turnaround after shocking South Sydney 38-18 last Thursday night and Bennett was looking to keep them fresh ahead of a clash with the second-placed Roosters. “It was a bit tough,” Lodge said of the Aussie rules session. “It’s a bit of fun, but I probably won’t take up the sport. “Tevita (Pangai) and I will probably stay away from AFL.” [/QUOTE]
