Four Broncos named in All-Stars training side

The NRL All-Stars training side has been named with a whopping 64 players mentioned. The Broncos that have been named are Corey Parker, Ben Hunt, Ben Hannant and Alex Glenn which I think is fantastic. Even being nominated in this side is a fantastic honour and should be a great confidence booster, in particular for Hunt and Glenn. How the final side is selected is unnecessarily complicated but here's the gist of it:

• The players with the most fan votes in a position is automatically selected
• Once a player from a club is picked, no other player from that club can be picked (excluding the highest ranked player)
• If someone withdraws from injury, a bench player is promoted and that spot is backfilled with the next highest vote getter from the injured players club, forward/back as required.

Bit complicated but that's it. Personally I'm tipping Parker to get a run as there are many qualified players that can cover Glenn's positions.


It's been very quiet on the news front with the Broncos and to be honest, that's absolutely fantastic. No drunken debacles yet, touch wood.

From the ranters, we hope you had a fantastic Christmas and that the new year brings a premiership back to Brisbane!
