The Brisbane Broncos<\/a> had one of the most unlucky evenings of 2025 on Thursday.<\/p>\n

While their 22-2 defeat to the Melbourne Storm<\/a> was already enough to send most Broncos fans into a fit of rage, their bizarre string of injuries throughout the match would have them pulling their hair out.<\/p>\n

The Broncos suffered three individual hamstring injuries during their loss, with Adam Reynolds<\/a>, Ezra Mam<\/a>, and Selwyn Cobbo<\/a> all going down.<\/p>\n

Mam and Reynolds both went down in the same play, struggling to get themselves off the field.<\/p>\n

Cobbo then followed suit towards the end of the match, thus concluding a horror run of hamstring injuries for the Broncos.<\/p>\n

Michael Maguire<\/a> touched on his troops’ injury woes in the post-match interview, admitting how bizarre the situation was.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just spoke to the three of them, we have to go and get our scans and go through the process, the severity of them,\u201d Maguire said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut they are all three hamstrings, which is quite strange because the boys are pretty measured about what they do with the players throughout the week.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maguire admitted he was unsure what led to the odd string of hamstring blows, but commended his troops’ resilience regardless.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere’s no real evidence of why… but we will dig in and have a look,\u201d Maguire conceded.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I have to say, I am really proud of the way the players performed.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked about potential replacements for his injured stars, Maguire shared his confidence in the Broncos’ depth in multiple positions.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will be alright, we have people in the background,\u201d Maguire noted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThats part of the progression, we’ve been able to bring a few people in and change around a little bit. So we will work that out during the week.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018Madge’ described losing both his halves in the same match as something \u201ccrazy\u201d he had \u201cnever experienced\u201d before.<\/p>\n

NRL<\/a> Physio expects both halves to miss 4-6 weeks, and Cobbo to be sidelined for 2-4.<\/p>\n
