Gillett out for 8 weeks



It's just been announced that Matt Gillett has been ruled out for up to 8 weeks with an injured foot. The actual injury is unclear at the moment but Gillett undertook scans late last week and was informed of his 6-8 absence recently. This is a tough blow for the Broncos who are on somewhat of a roll and leading the NRL along with St George and Melbourne.

Gillett has been one of the great finds from the greater Brisbane area, having grown up in Bribie Island. The 2010 Dally M Rookie of the Year is known for hard running, good footwork and amazing hands for a forward. 'The Best a Man can get" has a big, big future with the Broncos and I'll make a bold statement - he will play for Queensland at some stage before the end of 2013.

In other Broncos news, Corey Parker has reaffirmed why he is one of the fan favourites at the club by stating that rival club offers of better money won't lure him away from the Broncos. As he has done right by the Broncos I'm sure we'll do right by him.

Outside of this it's been a quiet week. This weekend we face the Tigers which is always an interesting game mainly due to the presence of Benji. Check back later this week for a preview of the game...
