Halfback prodigy delivers attacking masterclass; Warriors find a hidden gem - Ressies Wrap
Coby Black, a former Broncos player, excelled with the Raiders, showcasing his talent with a standout performance against Manly.
Fox League
A member of the Brisbane Broncos pathways since the age of 12, Coby Black shocked the rugby league world at the end of last year when he decided to depart the club and link up with the Canberra Raiders.
Considered a halfback prodigy by many, the Under-19s Queensland Maroons representative had his most complete performance for the Raiders over the weekend since making the move to the nation's capital.
