Broncos Captain Adam Reynolds will sit out Saturday night’s pre-season game against the Cowboys.
Reynolds completed yesterday’s training at Twin Waters without issue before waking up with a tight back, and Coach Kevin Walters is taking a no-risk approach with his halfback ahead of the Round 1 clash with the Panthers on March 3 at Penrith.
“Adam ran well yesterday including some extras but is a bit tight in his back this morning so he won’t train today at the main session, which will mean he won’t play against the Cowboys,” said Walters.
“We want him cherry ripe for Round 1 and he’s moving really well after a big pre-season, so there’s no use taking a risk with him in a trial game in these circumstances.”
New signing Jock Madden will now start at halfback against the Cowboys in his first game for the Broncos, with Josh Rogers added to the interchange.
