"Note - several QRL clubs have affiliate pathways arrangements with NRL clubs."

These are not specific NRL feeder/reserve grade style arrangements, but pathways programs. Canterbury do not feed NRL players down to the Clydesdales.

BRONCOS SIGN PENRITH PLAYMAKER

The Broncos have handed an NRL lifeline to one of Penrith superstar Nathan Cleary’s understudies.

Panthers playmaker Kurt Falls will join the Broncos for the upcoming pre-season on a train-and-trial contract.

Falls, 27, is set to join Wynnum-Manly for next year’s Hostplus Cup after playing three NRL games for the Panthers in 2022.

As part of the Broncos’ affiliate arrangement with the Seagulls, Wynnum-Manly can nominate players to join the NRL club for the pre-season.

Falls will be one of those players to spend the summer at Red Hill where he will get the chance to press his claims for a fulltime NRL deal with the Broncos.
