Team List Brisbane Broncos v NZ Warriors - [Round 11, 2026]

Great team. The only change I would make with everyone available would be RTS for Pompinator.

I wonder if Ford will indeed start and Barnett off the bench. The 80 minute V8 gives us so much benefit from an interchange perspective I wouldn't be surprised if that continues.

The Broncos backline looks good and Walsh, Reynolds and Mam are super dangerous if their forward could match ours.

However, their pack looks like they are in for a hiding this weekend. If our forwards maintain their standards, and with both JFH and Barnett playing I expect them too, we should be too good for them up front. Warriors 30, Broncos 12.

I think Ford comes on after 20 mins and plays 60 straight. Webby likes this approach bc he only has to burn one sub he was gonna make anyway. Also broncos front row is so depleted so not a bad shout to try completely beat them up up front early and get ahead of the game

Middle forward rotation:
Barney, Fish, 50 mins each
Ford 60 mins
Clark 50 min and Vaimauga 30 min

Tanner unlucky for now

Yes this would seem the case, and a good idea. We don't want Ford to blow a head gasket doing 80 every week, hes not an outlier like LaHaasienda as much as it would be nice.
 
Thanks for the update bro.

Interesting that Niukore is in cup. This year things have really changed with more and more NRL players regularly doing some cup time.
Hes off to Newcastle and TSS has either matched or surpassed him in his outings. So no real need to be giving him game time unless completely necessary due to injuries.
 
Not in that team list either...
It's all just guess work in the end anyway, so nothing really gained by trying to read the tea leaves.

He may have been given permission from the club to take some time off, go back to Aus talk to clubs/see family etc.

Nobody knows or really needs to know as hes surplus to requirement currently, so its hardly a pressing issue with TMM back and fit.
