Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[theshed]

We should really go hard for S. Johnson after missing out on Hynes and saying no to Dufty. With Reynolds, Johnson and Hodgson that allows the Bronx to look internally for a fullback (which i believe is their current plan). With a good 6,7,9 it will mean that we can afford to stick with Isaako or even try Cobbo, i think fullback can be the weaker position (weaker= not like a standout, just need a role player) with a good 6,7,9 if that makes sense.

Would be amazing 3 years ago. Now going for all 3 would be pretty risky as things can go sour real quick after 30 as we’ve seen with Thaiday Boyd and Glenn.

2/3 would be good though.

Good. The plan is working then

Kevin’s grand plan for getting rid of them. Like to see his grand plan for getting those who remain play footy.

Can’t get beaten by 50 when you forfeit because you were unable to field 17 players.

I can say with confidence that Norman would love to return "home".

He would play for a sauasage sanga and a can of xxxx.

1. Reece Walsh
6. Sam Walker
7. Tanah Boyd
9. Matt Parcell
13. Jai Arrow

This spine would have been fire if we planned it properly

We're lacking a solid nucleus to our side. A Reyn should help rectify that going forward but he will need another couple of recruits to share the responsibility.

We need to make sure we keep the right players.. What's the point of keeping Niu instead of Walsh and then releasing Niu the next year anyway? Poor poor management

That spine would be lucky to crack the top 8.

Not worth it. Why would ditch Milford just to sign the dragon’s Milford

I don't disagree but main argument would be $1M vs. $300k...

I'm a firm no on Norman, but if the reported 300k is possible I could see us having a bite depending on how much Kevvie rates him...

 

[Donald Garner]

When we got rid of nikorima and kept Milford I screamed black and blue that was the wrong decision. I got owned by about 90% of the people on here for saying we should have got rid of Milford and kept Nikorima.

If Kodi wants to come back I’d take him in a heart beat. I just can’t see it happening with the way he left.

Staggs will most likely start at 6. We need a better hooker and fullback. There aren’t any fullbacks available so sign a good hooker and we can run with Staggs at 6 and a potential farnsworth / Lee centre pairing next year

We could re-sign Milford on 300k and at least he isn’t a flog

I don't like either option but i get your point

 

[theshed]

I don't like either option but i get your point

Oh for sure. My point actually is that both options are terrible.

 

[Sproj]

That 300k will go to Billy the Kid.

Not saying we should, but his value is bottom dollar currently.

 

[Huge]

According to fox sports it subtext suggested that we are looking for 5/8 and linked us to Norman as a ‘good fit’, not the point though. The thing that caught my attention was that he’d come for 330k a year. Obviously nobody is a fan of his attitude but at that price if he was to stay on the field is that to good an opportunity to pass up? I don’t know what to think about it really I’ll make it clear they did not say we were after him just that we are looking for a 6 and he’s cheap is all… to be honest I’m not to sure if I believe we are after a 6 but take it as you wish

Cannot stand him and I'd like to see him for that price.

are you tired of niu now? you've been calling for him for the last 2 years!

Contracts on the line as several Broncos stars fight for future: Walters

Brisbane players are fighting for their futures with coach Kevin Walters admitting performances over the coming weeks would dictate if new contracts are offered as the Broncos battle to avoid a second straight wooden spoon.

www.nrl.com

"We have some guys here that I want to see play first grade before the year is out, some of our younger players, and they will get those opportunities provided that they’re doing everything they can at Intrust Super level.

"We will give them a chance at the next level up to give them a taste of what it’s like to play in the NRL."


Wonder who it could be?. Mam, Piakura and Willison, only ones running around in cup not to play yet.

I read this thread this morning, laying in bed. I was thinking about commenting on the Norman situation, but I decided I couldn't be bothered to sit up a little bit to do so and just left it.

I saw Corey Norman show the same level of enthusiasm in a Broncos jersey several times.

No thanks.
