2023 is shaping up as one of the most exciting in recent memory. A host of huge name recruits shifting clubs has ensured a more open competition than ever.
Every side enters the new season with a series of positives and weaknesses. Today we're going to focus in on those weaknesses.
It goes without saying that this was far easier with some clubs than others. That said, here is every team's weakness as we prepare for Round 1, 2023:
10. Brisbane Broncos
Over-reliance on aging halfback
Brisbane should have played finals footy in 2022. They produced one of the all-time great chokes in the final rounds and still only just missed out.
That said, once Adam Reynolds struggled to find full fitness, the Broncos looked a shell of their best selves. It's not unusual to rely on a halfback, but Reynolds recent injury history suggests that may be trouble.
If Reynolds stays fit and plays every game in 2023 the Broncs play Final's Footy. The chances of that happening are very, very long odds. They need a Plan B.
