Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2025

[theshed]

I'd just be concerned at having another lazy, hot and cold outside back in the team. Fatrell only seems to turn it on when he feels like it. We don't need another high paid bloke like Cobbo who seems very similar judging by his form the past year or two.

Whether Wayne could turn him around, is anyone's guess.

Some dumb errors but I thought he looked really promising in his NRL games. Moves well

 

[1910]

Not yet, but they're not giving him a run in Q Cup and there's little value in playing in an age comp, he wants to play against adults so BRL is what is available.

I know but I was just making the point he hasn't played yet since the Meninga final.

 

[1910]

That final wasn't his best game, but the team were pumped with his performances and said they wouldn't have made the GF without him.

I said at the time, the last month of Meninga was his best in two years.

 

[1910]

Why can't he get a game in Cup?

Who is Burt going to drop, Leo the winger with 61 tries for the Bears or Sami Sauiluma the captain and two-time premiership bear? Chuck in Karapani who they have to pick.

Not a lot of spots in the backs. Hard too when you're not playing to force your way in.

 

[1910]

I think that can be ok and is a good sign that he wants to get games against adults after MM finished.

I think 1910 was saying it's rare for a player to go straight from MM to Qcup, so it shouldn't be unexpected or considered a downgrade for him.

I believe Jett Bryce is the only one going straight to Qcup this year, but even guys like Mozer, Coby, BTK, etc. might've played a game or so of Qcup near the end of the year after the MM final.

Then they train with the Top 30 next preseason and look to get a full year of Qcup in from there.

It's a good sign if Trew gets some BRL games, because I think some of the MM guys don't play for ages after the final.

Bryce might only be going to Qcup, because of how terrible our backrow is and Madge wanting to see if a young guy might be a bolter for later in the year.

Bryce and Tonihi were the only two Broncos to start last week in A grade on the Coast. Tonihi scored a try for Helensvale.

Black played his first Cup game in June, Mozer was June but played Colts that year too. Te Kura finished 22 in Colts after four Cup games. Willison is hard to tell- he played Meninga in 2019, no football 2020, 2021 Colts to start the year but then was straight into Cup and was playing NRL by June in 2021.

I will expect some of those Bears to pop up in the next month if a chance presents. Verhoeven will have Alf to keep him busy.

Thank you for your desperation.. I mean service.

If only one day he will see my love for him (which is trapped between abuse from try scorer gamblers)

Reyno liked a proposal comment (it was more of a demand than a comment) after the final V Melbourne. Wedding is currently postponed.

Wedding with Paix is officially called off.

Ah that's right they used to play some colts games, but thats gone now isn't it?

Yeah, QRL got rid of Colts and made Meninga Under 19- Ikin/Board felt you can go from Under 19 to Cup and don't need Under 21 in the middle.

He's sick mate but an opening for you to "nurse" him back to health has presented itself.

Any chance he can go to a different side to get a game?

They're going to have to, Tonihi, Innes, Coates and Trew aren't all going to play Cup for the Bears.

Ideally, I would like to see all of them play five or so Cup games by the end of the year. They've all finished school and are either one or two years out of year 12. Innes played Cup last year and was great for two games and Tonihi is playing A grade on the Coast, Trew has played BRL. Coates and Trew previously played for Souths in Meninga and Innes previously played for Wynnum in Meninga. Tonihi is the only 'real bear.'

Verhoeven doesn't matter at this stage he still at school but turned 18 so if he got a run for the Bears later in the year and they got two games into him that would be great. Similar to Sam Stephenson who played one game last year for Tweed while still at school and has played another three this year.

Looks like we have a good batch coming through which is exciting. Hopefully the club can work it out and they start getting games this year. If we do lose Staggs and/or Cobbo or even if not, spots will be available in the next year or two in first grade you’d think.
