Brisbane's informant suggests Josh Papalii will play, despite his ankle injury and uncertainty.
Brisbane's Canberra informant believes Josh Papalii will play as Broncos coach Michael Maguire had a cheeky dig at Raiders rival Ricky Stuart as tensions simmered ahead of Sunday's finals blockbuster.
As revealed by CODE Sports, the Broncos have been receiving inside information from a Raiders rat and Brisbane's latest intel is that Papalii will carry his ankle injury into the qualifying final at GIO Stadium.
Stuart is giving Papalii until game day to prove his fitness, but the Raiders coach insists he won't risk the Queensland Origin hitman, knowing the minor premiers have a second bite at the cherry.
Brisbane flew out for Canberra on Friday, with Stuart's coaching counterpart Maguire convinced Papalii will face the Broncos after an alleged tip-off the Raiders prop is recovering well.
