Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[Dazza 92]

Mate i wouldn't be too bothered about the Fifita fiasco I don't think even he knew what he was doing right up until he signed. In fact I'd wager the only one that had any sort of idea was his Ma.

I'm sure there are many on here like myself will still hold your views and tips in high regard.

Reading between the lines it sounds like Piakura is planning (at this stage) to stay with us. But between the dodgy manger's advice and the way some clubs are acting - the young players of today and come and go at the drop of a hat. Suaalii's last minute move to the Roosters is a case in point and a prime example of how nothing is a done deal anymore.

I guess its a example of what switched on player agents do with a club on its knees...im of the opinion he stays.....on a contract thats probs on the high side but.....welcome to the 2021 Broncos I suppose...

 

[Dazza 92]

any thoughts on a draft system in the NRL rather than this shit show "transfer window" we currently have...

Unless we traded it, we'd have the number 1 pick this year....Suaali arguably the number 1 rookie in his class......

Just saying...

If Brimson was available, this discussion is pointless, you take Brimson every day of the week without thinking twice, unfortunately he isn’t available.

He is for 2022

 

[Sproj]

He is for 2022

I thought he signed an extension this year for 3 seasons?

If not, then yeah, throw 800k at him for sure!

 

[pagey]

Brimson would be pushing 800,000 these days. May get up near a million with the titans being pushed in the media.

Possibly, but if you want a good fullback I'm afraid that is what you will pay.

Neither is drinkwater he's off in 22 , if Allan is to rule out making a play for Brimson at the end of next year?

I wasn’t aware Brimson was available 22, yeah I am all for ignoring both Drinkwater and Allan and throwing 800k at Brimson, he’d be a dream come true!

 

[upthebroncs]

Too bad Asiata is a dirty New South Welshman!

I want QUEEEENSLANDERRRSSS!

Yeah.. I would love that. Throw in Grant too. Maybe Tanah Boyd aswell.

1. Brimson
6. Boyd
7. Dearden
9. Grant

Brimson is signed until the end of 2022 ... so would be available for the 2023 season if we still need a fullback by then (and i really hope they don't)

I don't give a shit what state they play for in Origin, if they help us WIN

I'd still probably prefer grant over anyone though, he would be the big money spine player I'd target.

Yeah but every other year we would lose our best juniors

We should be able to afford both.

 

[broncos4life]

Since my epic failures of guaranteeing Fifita would stay, my reputation for player movement has hit an all time low, so I really do not want to put it out there for fear of ridicule should he not do what I am told he will do!

Fair point and I take back my jab from a few weeks ago, but for old times sake what are you told he will do?

Dang... thought he was off end of next year and was due an upgrade

 

[Morepudding]

I don’t think you can really put a price on the favour the broncos did for Fifita. It’s something that should mean loyalty for a lifetime but not even a year later he bailed on us. It’s a straight up dog act

If your mate bails you out of a sticky situation , sure you owe him. But if that mate then starts making had decisions that hurt you, your family and your friends then you need to let them go.

That's exactly what Fifita did. Let go of a mate that wasn't what they used to be and was impacting their life negatively.

 

[Tristan1990]

Broncos just announced he has been released

 

[Morepudding]

Offa officially released. Thank god. One less heartless and brainless player in the team.

 

[Morepudding]

Bloody fantastic news. He's a garbage player with no heart.
