I started a thread on this some time back but didn't have much legs .. my thought was to field an actual bronx reserves in q cup wearing Broncos colours... same as some sydney clubs do. Mix of nrl top 30/ development players plus q cup registered players only outside the salary cap. Play home...
This year but what size contract was he offered for next season. Any thing over minimum wage can be redirected and still leave enough to bring in some one at base rate.
Oates seems to be flying under the radar considering he's of contract. Loyalty aside, Considering his form this year and our needs i wouldn't be upset to pull his offer for croft and bring in Farnsworth.
Sounds like the DCE exile from qld all over. Wasn't that another case of not getting on with cam so you just get hosed over until he moves on. I'm happy at the thought of croft Storm don't seem to make mistakes in their talent id and development and he spent a lot of time in there...
left field thought too is Jackson Hastings. Seems to have matured a lot playing in England, has a good mix of game control and flair in games I've seen him play. Obviously was a dickhead in his early years, but Trent Barrett basically drove him out of the game by ignoring him when Manly had...
I don't see any obvious captain choices among the current playing group. Glenn seems best option to me, but his future is uncertain, and is he in our top 17 at full strength... ditto Gillette, who still seems like he's finding his feet again, and maybe he won't ever, similar to how Tallis...
I disagree with your disagreement. Decades ago (and much more recently) play went on around injured players until play went near them... injured with the ball, roll aside and give it to someone else. Injured in defenece was play on... there was no incentive to fake injury. However now...
**** this shit... broncos just need to take the plunge and go challenge these at a hearing... Get that fucker that defended slater and burgess and get this shit thrown out. If Burgess putting moylan out for 2 games with his record can get reduced to a fine, surely Turpin can do the same.. TPJS...
Well, if NRL contracts are meaningless, why the **** are we stuck with boyd and mcbollocks. The contract is all powerful when their is a disagreement and no-one wants to budge. Sure there is some coersion/persuasion and negotiation sometimes to break the contract when it suits both parties...
just to reply to myself... https://www.qrl.com.au/news/20182/02/23/murri-under-16-jersey-presentation/
doesn't say he's indigenous but I don't think he would be asked to do this if he wasn't
So, since this is a similar start to 1999, does anyone remember whether or not Alfie was playing poorly when he announced his retirement, or was he just not meeting his own standards. Anyone remember how long he had left on his contract. Great to see a captain and legend make a huge personal...
Can't be bothered going back to listen to the exact detail of what he said now, but its kind of funny that he's critical of this generation for not knowing the club history and who's come before them and what they've done, yet he said he hasn't set foot at red hill since he left the club...
This is most recent I could find... https://www.nrl.com/news/2019/03/04/2019-nrl-rosters-official-squads-updated-for-all-teams/ if it is, who has come into the squad to replace Andre Savillio, and didn't we cut George Fai?? two spots there
i think thst over simplifies the reality of that era though. Sure those players and others not named were great footballers but among their peers in relevant terms they were also among the nsturally strongest or fastest playing the game. Though smaller now in comparison, those playing at top...
Maybe Harrigan got away without controversy this time because brisbane dominated and won by close to thirty points. Can you imagine the outrage over thst try if we only won by two points in a grandfinal. People forget...msybe too young.. at how much outrage there was when a correct try was...
Off season is winding on, sick of reading or not reading about the coaching for 2019, so thought I’d introduce a new thought.
No ideas of numbers for or against , but my gut tells me that there is a desire for an actual Broncos reserve grade team to train and play as a team somewhere, as...
