South Burnett 2023 Junior Eagle of the Year Fletch Prendergast’s rugby league career looks to be taking off.<\/p>\n

Prendergast has been selected as captain of the Western Clydesdales for Saturday’s Round 2 Mal Meninga Cup game against the Wide Bay Bulls.<\/p>\n

The game will be played at Brothers Sportsground in Bundaberg.<\/p>\n

The Mal Meninga Cup is a statewide Queensland Rugby League competition for players aged under 18, and is considered a stepping stone to the Queensland (Hostplus) Cup<\/p>\n

Another South Burnett player, Harrison Braithwaite, will be turning out at as five-eight for the Wide Bay Bulls’ Cyril Connell Cup side at the same venue on Saturday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Braithwaite was presented with the Allan Trunks BTN Values & True Spirit Award at last year’s SBRL awards for his efforts with the South Burnett Eagles.<\/p>\n

The Cyril Connell Cup is a statewide competition run by the QRL for Under 16s players.<\/p>\n

Another former South Burnett Eagle, former Kingaroy Red Ant Jack Garrod, has been named in the Gold Coast Titans trial side for this weekend.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Garrod has been selected in the backs for the Titans clash against the Dolphins at Sunshine Coast Stadium on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The career of another former local rugby league player is also getting under way.<\/p>\n

Former Cherbourg Hornets junior Leroy Malone, 15, has been playing with Toowoomba Valleys in the Toowoomba Junior Rugby League competition.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Malone signed a contract earlier this month with the Brisbane Broncos and will begin training with their youth squad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
