Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2026

[Bucking Beads]

There should be.

I know.

Warriors Bishop Neal 17 years old and picked for QLD 19 - MEGASTAR in the making. Broncos need to get in his ear when he is over here. Throw the bank at him. The next SBW - 100%.

I'd offer the Warriors all of Verhoeven, Coates and Duffy/Mam to sign this kid.

Admittedly never seen this guy before but the amount of supposed SBW clones that have through, just about all of them have fizzled out, let alone even come close to being as good as he was.

Man a few losses and we completely over-react. Talty is an amazing player for what he is being paid. 1 month ago he is rightfully being talked about as great for us, a few losses and he has regressed.

I’m not exaggerating when I say… the greatest signing in Broncos history

Jacob Preston is going to free agency at the end of the year - contract talks with the Bulldogs have gone to shit.

Pretty much the only Bulldogs player not looking inept this year.

He's a second-rower - we don't look at them.

Yep ..
He would look good in a Broncos jersey.

Be a really nice player to get but are we prepared to let Riki or/and Piakura go? I think our backrower problem is that we don't have any depth or young ones coming through.

I'm a huge fan of Preston.

There is no reason whatsoever that 3 NRL standard 2nd rowers cant exist in the same team.

The problem - as always, why move interstate, put the kids into new schools etc, when you can stay put and have 7 other Sydney teams bid for your services.

Bench rotation, injury, competition for spots, Patty looking more and more likely to have to move permanently into the front row opening up 13, straight up poor form…

There are plenty of opportunities available here.

It is the $$ for Preston that make it hard IMO. I could see Piakura playing 13 and Preston on the edge TBH.

 

[FACTHUNT]

Herbie is apparently close to signing with the Roosters. Knew it was happening as soon as he started flogging BYDs on Instagram. Nick Politis is chairman of AP Eagers (who have exclusive dealership rights)

 

[Cult]

Roosters will get Herbie and Preston for the price of DCE

Things Herbie can't pass:

1. Football
2. Up cash

it may be an issue, but not necessarily an insurmountable one.

some of those Sydney clubs may not have the cap space, and if they do may have more pressing needs than a backrower.

then there is the footy side to think about. which team is likely to help improve your footy and your chances of playing rep footy

 

[Brocko]

Are we convinced of Preston? Maybe the Galvin short balls are just that good?

The broncos went all in on the wrong Preston.
