Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[Sproj]

I agree. The squad has depth like we haven't had for years. Usually our depth consists of players we dread being forced to play.. Or we don't even consider playing at all..

When do you think Mam should get his debut? 2022 or 2023?

I think there are two parts to this question. When will he get his debut? Next year for sure unless he is injured but otherwise, he'll come in at some point for a game or two. The second question I suppose is when will become first choice 6? I'd suggest this won't be until 2023.

 

[Jedhead]

We did have Coates.

The Cowboys recently signed a Fijian Sevens winger.. I wouldn't mind one of those.. Can't be any more of a risk than playing a young inexperienced winger.

If Cobbo don’t getacentre spot then I’d love to see him start on the wing outside Staggs before cementing the FB spot next year. For now I’d like to see Tesi get first crack at it after a full preseason there.

If he can improve his line speed, defensive reads and his long passing game i think mid to late 2022 is not off the cards.

In ISC He is positioned on the left in defence (which suits reynolds as he plays on the right) but like cody walker, plays both sides in attack often linking with his halfback.

I think Tesi a full pre-season and lose abit of the bulk. Will be crazy at fullback. The kid can play footy. Has a great running game with a silky passing game. Him or Cobbo in the 1 & 3 spot either way I don’t really mind

We finally get a halfback and everyone's obsessing over having a ball playing lock.

Does Cam Murray do much ball playing for Souths right now?

I'll be happy with Carrigan or Kobe at 13.

Kobe is definitely more of a play maker than Carrigan.

Yep tend to agree... Murray is there to generate momentum through the ruck with quick ptb's for the spine to work off, but he also provides support play through the middle and attacking threat from his running game. It always seems to be Reynolds that starts off the backline movements by digging into the line rather than Murray being a Radley or Yeo style and acting as a link man.

I think if you go a ball playing lock then you are basically resigned to implementing a split halves system, which to me is limiting unless your fullback is top class.

Kevvie has already shown that he wants his halves linking together and wrapping around the ruck so I dont think a ball playing lock is all that necessary for a system that KW wants, which means his lock can be a bit more of a floater around the ruck and provide support... which I think Kobe is good at, as he's a player that pops up in the right spot at the right time.

I’m excited about Mam and would like him to get a shot late in the season next year if he is really earning it, maybe off the bench in the last round or 2 but I’m really of the opinion that now the team is more settled that young guys should have a minimum number of Q Cup games they have to play before they even get considered for debut (outside of extreme circumstances). Something reasonable like at least 20-25 games.

Staggs and Turpin spending a lot of time with Toby Rudolf. Any chance we are getting him?

 

[Chewed]

No. Walsh was spending a lot of time with him too..... Then he got arrested.

Rudolf seems like he'd be a legend to hang out with off field, no real ego about him but your typical pub tradie mate.

no.

he re-signed with the Sharks until the end of 2024

more likely just a connection from their Redcliffe days

 

[ZTop]

What about dunamis Lui? He's been let go by the Raiders

I think he'd be a great depth option for sure. That said, now we've got James, I'm not sure we have room for one more. If Isaako leaves, maybe. You can never have too many experienced depth props.

Hard no to Munster and Smith. First class dickheads and attitude/culture problem. Let the self entitled fuckers play somewhere else.
Grant on the other hand, is welcome.

Look at Melbourne Storm, do you see any culture problems there because of these players being in the side? They have been at the Storm for years. If they are such a negative influence, why haven't there been more issues at the club?

If Munster or Smith were available, you'd be stupid to pass on them.

Melbourne don't have an incredibly young and inexperienced squad.

Bellamy is a strong coach that has learned how handle these sort of influences. not to mention he has had leaders like Cam Smith and Slater around the club.

I would have liked us to sign this guy to the 30.

Which one of his 26 ISC games across three clubs and 5 years impressed you?

He's big and tall though

His name is Petero. I rest my case.
