In a stirring display of strategic acumen, new Brisbane Broncos coach Michael Maguire is once again shaking up the squad with a potential major change on the horizon, reported by the Daily Telegraph.
Young gun Brendan Piakura was thought to be the heir apparent to former Broncos stalwart Kurt Capewell after his departure in 2023, but Maguire seems to have other ideas brewing, with seasoned player Jack Gosiewski catching the coach's eye this preseason.
Gosiewski, a veteran of the game who has traversed the highs and lows of a nine-year NRL career, is now in contention for a starting spot in the backrow alongside the promising Jordan Riki, leaving many in the rugby league community scratching their heads.
Despite his journeyman status, Gosiewski has made a lasting impression on Maguire during the grueling preseason training sessions, displaying the kind of grit and determination that earns respect in the tough world of rugby league.
Rumors swirl that Gosiewski has been honing his skills alongside playmaker Ben Hunt in recent weeks, forming a formidable partnership on the field that has the potential to shake up the competition.
With Maguire at the helm, anything is possible as the Broncos gear up for a season of change and challenges ahead.
