Former Cowboy Kane Bradley is on a train and trial contract. Bradley played two games on the wing for the Cowboys in 2021, including scoring a try v the Storm.

Being forced to name Coates despite ruling him out with injury a few days ago is odd.

Strong feeling that that'll be different by Saturday. I'm guessing Wishart replaced by Pezet, goes back to the bench and Coates is still under a cloud with anderson or Bradley as a replacement. with J Grant being dropped.

Kane Bradley.....107kgs and 196cm.

Who knows if he can play ???

But at least he doesn't get shorter or lighter during a game.

Quotes from when Cowboys signed him in 2021

"Kane is a big body with speed and has been a noted try scorer in the lower grades.

"He adds significant depth to a position we believed we were a little undermanned and all reports we received about his work ethic, attitude and character were glowing."

Supposedly the original jersey with the names of the very first team on the players' backs e.g fullback wears Robbie Ross' name etc

JAC will be on Warbrick's side if he plays the same wing as last week
