I bet we didn't try to match the Titans offer of 300k per season and hence he left. We let him go. Noone seriously thinks Broncos tried hard to keep him and lost out.

So we let him go

Oh yeah that is right, I just checked.. But anyway, it's not like we'll even realise if he is there or not.. I think that's why we're letting him go.. Very easily replaceable

Lets just try Staggs in the backrow before throwing him out. Would be nice if he could get running like Isaiah Papali'i

Palasia leaving is old news. Is your son joining our top 30 squad? Do we have to replace Niu now?

I know that Riki has good base stats. I'm still not gonna bring him into my SC draft squad and I don't think that's enough for what the Broncos need at right edge backrow. He should get those base stats out in the middle for us is what I'm saying.. He'd be solid I think.. Also, I don't know...

Not sure what games to pinpoint but I definitely didn't grab that opinion out of nowhere. What do you disagree on? It was pretty easy to see the biggest negatives in our line up on (that right edge) and check on if there's been an improvement each week. You never know, it could be as simple as...

It's obviously a common move to throw cut outs and kick to the winger.. but I know Reynolds eventually found it the most effective move to cut out Riki and Staggs. Reynolds is a smart half and I was watching him be smart about having two disruptions between him and Cobbo. Obviously Reynolds...

Simplifying his role down to pure running and tackle busting sounds good to me. I really don't care if Staggs has an issue with not being named at centre. He can go find another club if he wants.

I was watching fairly closely, it became more of a go to without hesitation once Riki and Staggs proved to Reynolds they were liabilities. Reynolds tried giving Staggs lots of ball early in the season and realised Staggs couldn't get it to Cobbo.

I was thinking the same thing for that right edge but I was trying to make it work with what we currently already have. Sign up Rhyse Martin for that right edge backrow spot. He'd form a lovely combo with Reynolds and provide much needed leadership and experience. He's a great line runner and...

Oh yeah definitely no chance of it happening.. Unless we desperately want to keep Mariner. Maybe Herbie leaves to play fullback elsewhere and Mariner gets a start there in the centres next year.. Not sure. I just can't watch another year of that same right edge bombing opportunities. Reynolds...

what the heck. that sounds bad

And what's your issue with it? Most of the line up picks itself. I only switched Riki to bench prop and Staggs to backrow. Smoothy is definitely the best option to start round 1 at 9 but that doesn't mean he will. I'm not sure what else you could have a problem with

Round 1.. I'd go... 1. Walsh 2. Oates 3. Farnworth 4. Mariner / Hoeter / Arthars 5. Cobbo / Pereira 6. Mam 7. Reynolds 8. Haas 9. Smoothy 10. Flegler 11. Capewell 12. Staggs 13. Carrigan ________________ 14. Paix 15. Riki 16. Jensen 17. Willison 18. Bayliss 19. Piakura Happy to drop Riki from...

I'm backing the human brain to be a bit pliable. Grab him by both shoulders and shake him real hard for at least a minute.. Then tell him he's playing prop and he's going to run over the opposition.. He might start to believe it and actually carry it out

Mate, that's too obvious to bother stating. I posted it the info on dimensions so that noone had to debate it. It's up to the coaching staff to drill it into him how he should be playing if he wants to stay in the 17.. then up to Riki to succeed. We should learn from last year.. Riki was one...

He should be dumped out of the squad if he can't find that physicality or mental toughness... This is the NRL baby All he'll need to do to start with is hold onto the ball and run it hard.. make his tackles.. then can go from there.. He's definitely not who we need in the right edge backrow

We need to just stick him at prop. He could obviously turn into a Tino / Tapine type player in the middle if he put his mind to it..

Yeah I don't mind him either. I'd still probably prefer to see Mariner get a shot before we use Arthars.
