Show Preview
It’s a Queensland derby this evening as the Brisbane Broncos go head-to-head with their state rivals the Gold Coast Titans. Join The Roar for live scores from 5:30pm (AEST).
Queensland can usually bank on having at least one side firmly in the finals mix, but it’s a grim picture this year, particularly for these two sides. The Broncos started the season well but, one decent performance against Manly a couple of weeks ago notwithstanding, have been meek since the restart, losing four straight.
The Titans at least aren’t failing to live up to expectations, instead merely meeting the pre-season predictions of wooden spoon shoo-ins. While they do have a solitary win to their names – a commendable, gutsy effort against the Tigers three rounds ago – they just don’t have the cattle to challenge the NRL’s top teams.
Gold Coast may at least finally have Tyrone Roberts back in their side today, even though he was named in the extended reserves earlier in the week, while Jarrod Wallace is also making his return via the bench.
Brisbane coach Anthony Siebold has made a number of changes, including moving Tesi Niu into the no.1 jersey and Jamayne Isaako to the bench. Cory Paix is out injured, heaping pressure on the side’s already-thin hooker stocks and potentially giving young half Tom Dearden a chance for a bench role. If that happens, Isaako is set to drop out of the matchday squad entirely.
