Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[Nightwatchman]

Man would've been keen on Hodgson coming to Brisbane. I still think he's got something left in the tank

I'm not sure why after what the Broncos went through with Jack Bird. Hodgson seems quite fragile to me and has had extended periods on the sidelines due to injury.

Cross off Scott Drinkwater

I know one thing is for certain, the titans are turning into a real cuzzy bro club with Ezra heading up their recruitment.

This part of the Badel article caught my eye. Makes me think we've already made a deal with somebody.

Or we were actually never talking to him, why would we be talking to his manager if we couldn't even table an offer, sounds absolutely ridiculous. Would be like booking a fancy table at a restaurant just to look at the menu lol.

Hopefully the reality is we have signed somebody and just retracted the offer for Drinkwater.

could also be we looked at the menu, saw the prices and went "**** that shit, not worth it", then walked out

Yeah true bro, I would take this as a positive. Maybe Kev has come with the mindset of this is a value we set and we are not budging. If we take that mindset to the table everytime our cap and team will look more balanced in the long term. Drinkwater has shown some good things but his defense is terrible and he isn't exactly a proven sure thing.

Latest from Reynolds:

“We’re still working out what will be best for me and my family. If I have to move the family interstate I will. It would be daunting but exciting at the same time. It won’t have any impact on my contract situation. I’ve played every game this year, and any club that’s looked at me already knows what I’ve done and what I’m capable of. A deal could get done in two days, it might be two weeks, I just don’t know.”

Latest from Moses:

“I don’t care about money to be honest, it’s not about that. It’s about where I’m going to play my best footy. I’ve played in teams that have lost games and not had the best seasons and I’d rather be happy somewhere playing good footy and winning games than money. If I have to move the family interstate I will. It would be daunting but exciting at the same time.”

Are we to believe that both of them said verbatim "If I have to move the family interstate I will. It would be daunting but exciting at the same time." I smell shite.

Sloppy reporting/editing. Here's the original:

Broncos might not go bust as Adam Reynolds, Mitchell Moses dreams live on

Adam Reynolds hasn’t closed the door on moving interstate as his time with South Sydney looks like coming to an end.

www.news.com.au

He's quoting this piece:

‘They know what I am capable of’: Reynolds says injury won’t impact contract talks

The off-contract Souths star won’t rush his return from a thumb injury for the sake of staying on the radar of rival clubs.

You have more faith in our recruitment team than I.

I said hope!

Allegedly

 

[McHunt]

Some cash freed up, right here. Rumour is he's accepted a shorter contract (two years) and less money than the Broncos were offering:

 

[Culhwch]

Bloody hell.

 

[Sproj]

Not sure how we get back up from this. We can't even keep our own players by offering them more than our rivals, we have no hope.

 

[Broncojim]

To be fair as a developing player I'd join the Storm for less. Success means players will go to clubs for less and the chance to grow and win premierships.

**** them. If they dont want to be here then piss off. These are the type of players you dont want. Its just like comfy footy Fifita, when the going gets tough they kick and look for the easy option.

This season is about working out who is worth keeping and worthy of wearing the Broncos jersey.

 

[broncos4life]

Wow this feels like the bottom. I don't really care so much about Coates leaving but for him to go for less feels like the absolute bottom. In saying that I am sure @Smokin' Joe will came in and say some cryptic shit about it getting even worse than this to add another kick in the guts.

I think it is a sure fire sign of a major character flaw. It’s a flaw that signals he’ll be found wanting when push comes to shove and that’s not the sort of teamwork traits that win comps.

Good riddance to bad character I say.
