Should the Broncos make a play for Ponga

not worth anywhere that, despite what Kent says
 
Yes, absolutely. This side near an out and out star, he is one and will be one of the absolute best in a year or two.

Every elite side has an absolute gun (or two) in their spine:

Roosters - Keary, Tedesco, Cronk, Friend
Storm - Smith, Munster
Rabbits - Walker, Cook, Reynolds
Sea Eagles - DCE, TTurbo
Raiders - Hodgson

These are the sides that can win it this year. Who do the Broncos have? Milford?
 
Maybe but we also need a half and he would have to replace Milford. So it would be a somewhat sideward step.

I have no doubt that if we had a spine with Ponga and Pearce instead of Milford this season we would be doing far better.

But I love Milf and think we would be doing far better if he had someone like Pearce controlling the game.
 
I'd love Ponga but someone like Holmes would probably be more realistic/affordable. Would allow Milf back to 6 and provide a genuine threat at the back.

You know, I was thinking this morning, for the first time I can ever remember, I don't think Brisbane right now would have a single Australian rep player.

I agree with that, Cripes , when was the last time that happened, never. Hass will get there you'd think, and probably Fifita as well. I guess we all thought Milford would be it for us, sadly no.

I was just thinking, would the Broncs even have a NZ rep? Man, this side is bad.
 
one of the next great fullbacks is up for a new contract...Turbo Tom...

Maybe we should watch and see exactly what the market rate for him ends up being before deciding on a campaign (and it would be a campaign) to convince Ponga to join...

and what that would cost...

Hasn't Milf proved he's a 1 and not a 6 yet?
 
All he's really proven is he's a better 1 than Boyd.

Oh, well I see a player who's actually comfortable with the number on his back, knows what he has to do, and also knows how to do it. I think he's shown more promise back there than we have ever seen from him in the halves. Hell, watching him there, it really feels like we have wasted 4 years of his career to keep a useless prick happy.
