Overview

  • Brisbane’s defeat in Melbourne extended their nine-year winless streak at the Storm’s home ground.
  • Adam Reynolds, Ezra Mam and Selwyn Cobbo all tore hamstrings on the same first-half play against Melbourne.
  • Medical scans indicate Reynolds will be sidelined for roughly four weeks while Mam and Cobbo face season-ending recoveries.
  • Coach Michael Maguire will move Ben Hunt back to halfback and deploy Billy Walters at hooker to fill the void.
  • With their top-four bid over, the Broncos have shifted their objective to securing a top-eight spot in the run-in.
