THE NRMA Insurance Broncos will inject their ‘power pack’ from the opening exchanges tonight against the Dragons at Suncorp Stadium.
In a replication of a strategy that has worked well the past two weeks, six big men will start in the forwards.
Sam Thaiday will again be dummy half for the opening 20 minutes, with Ben Hunt relegated to the bench.
Hunt will come into the fray once the match settles down after proving an arm injury suffered at training this week had recovered sufficiently to play.
The Broncos’ backline is intact for the game that kicks off at 7.50pm.
