Bronco's squad is near full strength for Saturday's trial against the Titans with only Reynolds a certain starter missing.
Yeah they've named a stronger team than I expected. I thought we were going to roll out all our young blokes but if we do that we'll get pumped.
Titans team list comes out tomorrow.

Payne and the Haas: Klese to take on older brother as Broncos reveal line-up
It'll be like a backyard footy match for the Haas brothers at Cbus Super Stadium on Saturday night, as the pair face off on opposing sides in the blockbuster local derby clash.
19-year-old Klese - younger brother to New South Wales and Australian representative Payne - has had an outstanding pre-season at Parkwood and has been rewarded with an opportunity to audition for a development contract at this Saturday's trial match against Brisbane.
The back-rower has been at Titans HQ over the last few months on a train and trial deal after previously being part of the Future Titans program as a junior. He also played a pivotal role in the forward pack for Keebra Park during his senior years at school.
But making the job a little harder on the other side of the field will be his older brother, Payne, who has been named to make his first appearance in 2022 as part of the star-studded Broncos line-up making the trip down the M1 to take on the Titans.
Klese humbly admitted he felt his brother was better than him in an interview last year, but Saturday's clash will ultimately determine who is the best Haas.
The Titans are set to unveil their squad to face the Broncos on Thursday.

Mead, James, Kelly, Lee. Some former Titans should add some interest too.

Reserves: Jaylan De Groot, Iszac Fa'asuamaleaui, Klese Jaas, Tony Francis, Taine Tuapiki, Charlie Murray, Ben Liyou, Oskar Bryant, Caleb Hodges
Can't expect too much based on the amount of NRL players in the Broncos team compared to ours, but it will be good to see the young blokes rip and tear. Keen to see how Paul Turner, Jojo Fifita, and Shallin Fuller go.
HS/Mdrew, who is Jacob Alick? I can't remember hearing about him training with us
Backrower originally from Souths Logan who transferred to Burleigh for 2022. He did a train and trial with us pre-christmas.
Looking at that team list, that is a very fun team but as you say we've gone for a much different approach to the Broncos...
Alick, Tuapiki, Murray, Bryant & Hodges haven't even trained with the NRL since before Christmas.

Great opportunity for the young Titans to test themselves against the likes of Haas and Staggs.
Like our Coach’s approach keeping it as a trial and not a peeing competition. Can’t wait for it.
Four reasons to escape to Queensland: Sun, Surf, Sand & the Titans.
Squad announced on Titans website, but our guy hangingon already got the scoop

Tom Weaver looks to have also been added to the squad playing on Saturday, with Will Smith being ommitted due to his concussion last weekend.
