Broncs pair to return

THE Broncos’ big-name cavalry is returning with star duo Anthony Milford and Darius Boyd ahead of schedule in their injury rehabilitation.

Winger Corey Oates is in doubt for tonight’s clash against Melbourne due to a mystery illness, but Maroons aces Milford and Boyd are on the comeback trail.

Milford, who dislocated his shoulder against Souths on June 9, did some contact work yesterday and could return for Brisbane’s Round 19 clash with Newcastle.

Boyd, who broke his thumb in Origin II, was expected to miss six weeks but is on track for the Round 20 showdown with the Bulldogs.
