Brisbane have confirmed that star playmaker Anthony Milford has been indefinitely sidelined with a knee injury.
And in another blow to the Broncos, flyer Richie Kennar was expected to miss the rest of the season due to a shoulder complaint suffered in their last round loss to Newcastle.
Brisbane confirmed Milford had sustained a “left-lateral knee injury” after coming off early in their 26-12 NRL loss to the Knights.
But it remains to be seen how many games he will miss although Milford has been officially listed as “indefinite”.
“The early diagnosis is a lateral meniscus, the severity of the injury is not yet fully known,” the Broncos said in a statement.
The outlook appeared bleak for winger Kennar.
“Kennar suffered a shoulder injury early into the contest and it looks like he may have to undergo surgery,” the club said.
“Kennar will have a surgical review tomorrow, with the plan to prepare him for the next season.”
