Ben's return to Brisbane will hit hard Ben Te'o is back in Brisbane and ready to tackle the Broncos. AT Red Hill, he was dubbed "The Terminator." Now Ben Te'o is back to rattle his former Broncos teammates, who rate the Souths recruit the hardest hitter in the NRL. Broncos coach Anthony Griffin revealed to The Courier-Mail last month the club could not afford to keep both Te'o and Matt Gillett this season because of salary cap restrictions. Ultimately, Griffin opted for Gillett, but there is a sentiment the Broncos are sorely missing the intimidation Queensland Origin enforcer Te'o has transferred to the Rabbitohs this season. Broncos players vividly recall Te'o's brutal shoulder charge that floored Tigers rookie Matt Groat last year which earned him a two-week suspension and are on guard for his presence tomorrow night at Suncorp Stadium. "He is one of the biggest hitters I've ever seen," Broncos back-rower Alex Glenn said. It's going to be good coming up against Benny. We used to do it at training all the time but it will be different on the field. The good thing with our club is we always have depth but losing Te'o was a blow. The guys didn't want to lose him, but that's just life and everyone has to get on with it. That hit he put on the Tigers kid (Groat) last year . . . I just couldn't believe it. My jaw just dropped, I was right there, side-on, and it blew me away how hard that hit was. Maroons utility Gillett, who has benefited at the Broncos from Te'o's departure, says their back-row clash tomorrow night could influence their Origin prospects. "When he left, it was a bit of a relief," Gillett said with a wry smile. Benny moving gave me a bit more of a chance to grab that starting spot. If Ben stayed it would have been a bigger challenge for me. Ben was a big part of the Broncos but now he's down there he's enjoying it and playing terrific footy.
