'Eerie' stadium photo captures grim reality of QLD flood crisis

Footage has been captured at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium showing the brutal extent of the deadly floods that have wreaked havoc on Queensland and northern NSW.

All of southeast Queensland is likely to be declared a "disaster emergency zone", with deadly floods still peaking in some areas after parts of the region were hit by the most intense rainfall ever recorded.

Eight people have died and hundreds have been rescued from floodwaters which have damaged at least 19,000 homes and won't fully recede for days.

The atrocious conditions across Queensland meant Monday night's trial between the Warriors and Gold Coast was forced to be abandoned.

Initially meant to be played in Redcliffe on Saturday night, torrential rain resulted in the pre-season hit-out being rescheduled and moved to Robina's Cbus Super Stadium.

However, roads to the venue were reportedly blocked because of Queensland's flood emergency.

One hour's drive north of Robina, the conditions were also shocking at Suncorp Stadium - the home of the Brisbane Broncos.

Channel Nine's Adam Jackson posted footage to Twitter on Monday showing large swathes of the ground underwater.

In the video posted to Twitter, Jackson described the scenes as Suncorp Stadium as "eerie", with a sweeping shot of the ground showing the playing surface encased in water.

NRL trial scrapped amid flood crisis

Following the cancellation of Monday's NRL trial, the Warriors won't have a proper practice hit-out until the season gets underway in just over a week.

Round one doesn't begin until March 10 but the Warriors confirmed the trial won't be moved to another date, meaning the match has been officially scrapped.

It means halfback Shaun Johnson won't make his anticipated NRL return for the New Zealand club until they officially get their campaign underway against St George-Illawarra.

Johnson was listed to partner Kodi Nikorima in the halves in the practice game, suggesting that coach Nathan Brown will overlook playmaking recruit Ash Taylor for round one.

Brown has indicated that Chanel Harris-Tavita will deputise for Reece Walsh at fullback as the youngster serves a two-match suspension.

While the Warriors played most of their big guns in a 30-18 win over Melbourne last weekend, several Titans stars may go into their season-opening clash with Parramatta short of a gallop.

The likes of captain Tino Fa'asuamaleaui, five-eighth AJ Brimson, second-rower David Fifita, prop Moeaki Fotuaika and centre Brian Kelly didn't feature in a 26-all trial draw with Brisbane but were set to face the Warriors.

Fa'asuamaleaui has insisted he is fine despite a niggling knee injury while Fifita was cleared of any lasting rib damage after copping a hit playing for the Indigenous All Stars earlier in February.
