FREE: Broncos VS Knights Preview: Our Selections & Staking Plan
May 19, 2022
Round 11 kicks off with a desperate Knights outfit looking to upset a confident Broncos lineup. Here’s our preview & tips.
NEWCASTLE KNIGHTS VS BRISBANE BRONCOS –Â THURSDAY MAY 19, 7:50PM, MCDONALD JONES STADIUM
Newcastle will square off against Brisbane on Thursday night desperate to make amends in front of their home crowd after three heavy defeats at McDonald Jones Stadium in recent matches.
Brisbane is flying on a four-match winning streak. And the scalps the Broncos have collected are decent ones, accounting for likely finalists the Sharks, Rabbitohs and Sea Eagles in the past three rounds.
The Knights have rushed Anthony Milford into the team at five-eighth to take on his former club, while Tyson Frizell is a huge addition to the pack and the much-missed Dane Gagai is in the reserves. Te Maire Martin has been named at fullback for the Broncos despite a hip problem, with Cobbo the slated replacement if needed.
Past Matchups
Newcastle has won four of its last five against Brisbane, but the seventh-placed Knights were rolled 35-22 in embarrassing fashion in the final round of 2021 by the also-ran Broncos.
