Maguire Confirms When Kotoni Staggs Will Return from Injury
Kangaroos coach Michael Maguire has provided an update on Kotoni Staggs’ injury recovery, confirming when the Brisbane Broncos star is expected to return to the field.
Staggs, who has been sidelined with a knee injury, has been a key figure for the Broncos in recent seasons. His absence has been felt in Brisbane’s backline, but Maguire remains optimistic about the center’s comeback.
Speaking to the media, Maguire revealed that Staggs is making good progress in his rehabilitation and is on track for a return in the coming weeks. While he did not specify an exact round, he indicated that the Broncos’ medical staff are closely monitoring his recovery to ensure he returns in peak condition.
“Kotoni is working hard behind the scenes, and we’re expecting him back sooner rather than later,” Maguire said. “He’s an important player, and the priority is making sure he’s 100% before he gets back on the field.”
The Broncos have managed to remain competitive without Staggs, but his return will be a significant boost for Kevin Walters’ side as they push for a strong finish to the season. Staggs’ attacking prowess and defensive strength make him one of the most dangerous centers in the NRL, and fans will be eager to see him back in action.
With the Broncos eyeing a top-four finish, Staggs’ return could be a game-changer. If his recovery stays on track, he could be back in time for some of Brisbane’s crucial late-season matches.
