JUSTIN Hodges says the Broncos have the chance to get 'back on track' this Friday night - but they will have to match an aggressive Sharks outfit to do it.
The Broncos and Sharks meet at Sydney's Remondis Stadium coming off similarly disappointing losses in Round One.
While the Broncos were made to pay by the Rabbitohs, it was the Raiders who up-staged the Sharks.
Both teams were hurt by too many simple errors.
That's where the Broncos need to improve, and Hodges said it would be a test against a pack who bare their teeth.
Player like Sharks' captain Paul Gallen and Wade Graham play it tough, so the Broncos are going to have to stand up to it if they want to right the ship.
"I wouldn't say it is behind us, but we have to move forward now - it is a hard lesson learnt," said Hodges of the game against Souths.
"It's only Round One and we know how far we have to go now.
"I watched the Sharks game and they play aggressive with 'Gall' and Wade Graham and Andrew Fifita in their pack.
"It is going to be a tough game and a strong test for our forwards.
"Looking ahead we have the Cowboys, so we have a tough few weeks coming up.
"We are looking forward to this week and getting back on track."
Also waiting for a crack at his old club is Ben Barba.
Barba didn't have the happiest of starts for his new team, but Hodges said he was wary of him going into overdrive against the Broncos.
"I probably won't talk to him much - I don't want to stir him up so he has a blinder," quipped Hodges.
"Hopefully he doesn't get back in form this week.
"It will be good to see him happy on the field - but not this week."
