Broncos v Warriors: Same 17 for Madge; Berry back in fold
The Broncos are chasing three-straight victories when they host the Warriors on Saturday afternoon.
The clash forms the first half of a unique day at Suncorp Stadium, with Brisbane to play the Warriors at 3.00pm. The venue will then be turned into a Dolphins home ground for their clash with the Rabbitohs at 7.35pm.
The Broncos came back from 16 points down to topple the Sharks last weekend and they're eager to keep the momentum rolling.
Reece Walsh has been in sensational form since returning from a knee injury, while Origin forward Payne Haas continues to set the tone up front.
Confidence may be high at the Broncos but the Warriors have enjoyed plenty of success at Suncorp Stadium in recent times.
Andrew Webster's men have won three of their last four and prevailed twice already at the venue this season.
The Warriors are desperate to rebound from a shock loss to the Panthers last week and they're set to welcome back Queensland forward, and former Bronco, Kurt Capewell on Saturday.
