Jack Bostock will take an important step in his comeback journey this weekend, returning to the field for the first time in nearly a year.
The outside back has not featured since Round 16 last season, when the Dolphins faced the Knights in Perth and Bostock suffered a devastating ACL injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the year.
Bostock: A little friendly competition is always good
After months of rehabilitation, the 22-year-old is now set to make his long-awaited return through the Queensland Cup, lining up for the Redcliffe Dolphins in their ANZAC Round clash against the Norths Devils.

The appearance marks a significant milestone in Bostock’s recovery, having worked tirelessly alongside the Dolphins’ medical and performance staff to rebuild strength, confidence and match fitness.
Saturday’s clash carries added meaning for Bostock, returning to familiar territory in Redcliffe colours. The outside back first ran out as Dolphin No. 824 and will once again don the jersey as he continues his push back towards the NRL.
After a long and challenging road, this Queensland Cup appearance is more than just a return, it’s the first step in Bostock’s comeback.
