Broncos v Rabbitohs
Thu 14/3, 8pm
Game Day Update 3.40pm – There are multiple sources mentioning that Milne trained on the right wing for the Rabbitohs with Jacob Gagai training with the reserves. If you have Gagai in your Fantasy/SuperCoach team, watch out for the final updates an hour before the game! Milne is still in the 19 man squad.
It is also reported that Murray will likely spend time on the edge with Duncan to play at lock. Chee-Kam is the other reserve along with Milne and is an edge player – Murray and Chee-Kam could potentially split the edge role with Duncan and Murray splitting time at lock.
The sources for this information are Daily Telegraph, SC Playbook & Fox Sports.

Update Thu 14/3 – Josh Addo-Carr has officially been ruled out by Ciraldo, however, he is quoted as saying Addo-Carr should be fine to play next week! The same source also mentions the potential for Kiraz and Tracey to play at centre and wing respectively. Gus Gould had previously mentioned that Tracey would play in the Centres for Reserve Grade in his return to injury. Xerri is also in the reserves – there is a chance he comes in at Centre and pushes Kiraz to the wing also.
