Croft set to stay at Storm with Broncos deal in limbo https://www.nrl.com/news/2019/11/01/croft-set-to-stay-at-storm-with-broncos-deal-in-limbo/

Fffffffffs!

Broncos bungle another one.... ???

How could they expect Melbourne to pay "a large chunk" when they set to gain nothing from releasing him if he'd instead be in their club as depth.

We should pay his whole contact as we especially need him more than a fringe outside back right now...

58-0 didn’t mean anything to the broncos it seems. They’ve obviously have agreed that shit happens and the dark horse rises campaign starts in round 1

I feel sorry for Dearden. Poor bloke has the weight of the city on him because of the incompetence/ hubris/ stupidity of Bennett and the board. I’ll blame Seibold when I get confirmation that he has been involved in an idiotic retention decision.

Jesus Christ a lot of people are getting very upset that we MAY have missed out on a really unproven half. Croft is not going to be the silver bullet to this teams problems and it definitely will not be the end of the world if we miss out on him.

I don't get it. If Brisbane want Croft you'd assume they want him to be first choice halfback. But they're only prepared to pay a first choice half what, 200k? lmao

Crofts alright, he isn't our long term half though so not too disappointed, I think Dearden is the real deal and glad he'll be getting more experience.

Write off next year folks. It doesn't matter who we field, with a cap as compromised as this, we're fucked. We aren't in a much better state than the Dogs found themselves in a couple of years ago.

Boyd and Kahu's desperation for one last pay cheque have royally fucked us. Even the retirement of Gillett has left us little better off.
