Fifita was immense but he’s only 18. Hope we get him longer term but out of all these huge talented forwards we have high risk half or so won’t kick on to a great career for whatever reason. Great to have options but huge risk of massive second year season next year with so many young blokes...

Best game of season for Boyd. If keeps it up consistently then great. Still was out of position jogging for 40/20 and a few other times in defence. Cronk just didn’t get opportunity and wasn’t on game enough to exploit it. Unless Hamstrings magically improve next year still favour. 1. Milf...

Penalty try and sin bin. How is that not a certain try if Mitchell doesn’t professional foul?

Delusion of its time head it’s still a shoulder charge to the head. Automatic send off 6 weeks. KNik to hooker. Glenn defends at 6 and Boyd steps up to 6. Use TPJ as roving lock.

Has to be a send off. Shoulder charge leading with head. Has to go.

Uninjured Boyd isn’t the top but in the race with those top 5. Running half shot then no where close. If u factor in all guys who can play fullback but don’t (I,e Munster, Milf, Inglis) wouldn’t be top 10 based on this season. Factor in fair chance isn’t getting full legs back hard to see an...

Got to remind Oates where he fits in the Broncs team... Why not name best 17? It’s a 17 a side game these days (not 16 as some play). Berrigan is the best 14 option. As for Parker a great pick but Parker took a while to really go from good to legendary. Didn’t happen until what last 5 or...

Kahu and Isaako flank. Might as well give Roosters a 12 point head start and play someone who can tackle at centre... Fergo looks good for first try scorer.

In Cordner’s defence who from the roosters would reasonably expect 10000 people to show up to an NRL game?

As said a position he has never played, had a good lock in arrow who would have surely required a fraction of the coin. Besides an expensive ball playing lock is a luxury when at the time we were struggling for front row power and dependent on lock muscling as another prop something Bird can’t...

Wasn’t he at 45 degrees down at one point and lucky to end up on his shoulder. And was reckless in putting hands between legs like that. It wasn’t an intentional spear but was more than careless. After McKinnon one would think that sort of thing has to be dealt with harshly to protect the...

Bird is being singled out because he didn’t need to be bought as I’ve said before. Bought on presumably big coin for no specific positions when needed a halfback and maybe a hooker far more. Then showed up way over playing weight. (Sternum doesn’t make u put food in mouth or prevent u string...

How is it not at least grade 2? Joke of a sport. Be better run by the local bowls club. No officials should be in Sydney. Move them to Gosford or somewhere and recruit an English ref boss and former judge as head of judiciary. Not even trying to look independent at this point...

No I have a thing called a career that prevents me watching every nsw cup game I’m afraid. Broncs employ these people called talent scouts that are meant to do this for a living. While all other clubs do too Broncs have far more cash, systems of development and prestige then most other clubs...

That wasn’t the statement. C Smith was part of the package. Having said that once C Smith retires they might still do better than us. Their halfback and backup hooker look to have higher ceilings than ours and Munster will likely develop. Plus C Smith will likely be transitioned to coaching...

Absolutely not but given we haven’t developed a halfback in 20 odd years (and kept them) is an area that requires attention wouldn’t u agree?

Mixed feelings on this one. Used as a fullback should be great. Like Milf he’s only in early 20s and is a runner not an organisational half. With a Cronk and Smith next to him who cares. Once he gets closer to 30 will slow down and have to learn to add some more game management and be a more...

Seems like a window to me... oh wait we had halves covered so well didn’t even need a backup or plan b at that point for next five years.... 1 fullback, 2x 5/8 or hookers all can be manufactured to play together as halves right? Not like our halfback had shell shock or anything at that time....

A good defensive centre would help and so would Gillette but it’s far more than that. Seems attitude, concentration of team as a whole. Individuals have a lot of contribution. Boyd can’t be defending in line and failing to get back to get grabbers. Isaako doesn’t know how to defend on wing...

Thing is he may still want money. Divorce lost half right there probably. New gf risks losing more if lives with her for 2 years! Kids with extra financial support needs too. But imagine legacy is just as important to him. Stubborn old bastard would only likely leave to early to go to a...
