The Broncos have launched their 'Boots For Bubs' campaign ahead of the Nine Telethon, with skipper Adam Reynolds and fan favourite Corey Oates stepping up to support Queensland's littlest champions.
After his standout performance in the XXXX Derby, Reynolds' boots are now set to go under the hammer in a bid to raise funds for Mater Little Miracles.
Oates, who recently made a triumphant return to the starting lineup, will join forces with Reynolds to auction off their game-worn boots after the Broncos take on the Melbourne Storm.
The money raised will go towards supporting over 2000 sick and vulnerable babies in Queensland who are in need of lifesaving care.
Making a poignant visit to Mater's Neonatal Critical Care Unit, Oates was accompanied by Reynolds as they met with premature triplets Ari, Eloise, and Rocky, as well as reflecting on Oates' own daughter Montana's time in the same unit 5 years ago.
It's a touching reminder of the importance of community support in times of need, especially in the world of rugby league where teamwork makes the dream work.
