In a surprising turn of events, Brisbane Broncos head coach Kevin Walters has announced a selection shock for the upcoming NRL season.
It appears that Selwyn Cobbo will be making a positional move from the right wing to the left centre, replacing the English centre Herbie Farnworth.
Farnworth, who was a standout player during Brisbane's impressive 2023 season, has made the decision to join the Dolphins for the 2024 campaign.
Many speculated that Farnworth's departure was due to the emergence of Deine Mariner, a promising young centre who has impressed at every level.
However, Walters has now confirmed that Cobbo will be the one donning the coveted centre position.
Cobbo, who has already represented the Queensland Maroons, has had a remarkable start to his career and has proven himself as a force to be reckoned with in the league.
As the Broncos gear up for the 2024 season, this unexpected selection surprise could add a new dynamic to their already formidable lineup.
