We are losing Flegler and Palasia...seems like the Baker enquiry is to potentially fill a gap with a player who will be cost effective due to what you have already pointed out, he is not currently a regular first grader. Maybe the Broncs coaching team see some upside in him.
Look at it like the...
They traditionally improve as a season goes on and i am guessing that they are a backup bet for a lot of punters if they are also putting material money on another team so weight of money at this stage would still dictate their odds are short.
Pretty decent argument that Roosters are just as...
Work with a bloke that played some lower grades for Sharks in the front row around the Super League era (same era as Tiaan Strauss). He told me that he tackled Petero once (trial game?) and it was like tackling solid iron, went into it with everything he had and then wished he hadn't.
Negotiations are a long way down the track…or…they have been going for a while so, expect an announcement soon due to the fact they have been negotiating for a decent amount of time.
Whether it’s true is the question…
Good call out but pretty sure he was wing/fullback for his few starts, don’t remember him at hooker.
A few for me are Chris McKenna, Ash Taylor, Robbie Ross, and Tom Learoyd-Lars
Yeah, referring to him as a fringe first grader is harsh but be interesting to see if he started his career at a team like the Warriors or Bulldogs and was Qld eligible would he have got noticed enough to be picked. If Jacob Kiraz or even Jojo Fifita was a Bronco we would probably have to fend...
PM team didn't include players still involved in the finals at the time of announcing the team from memory so players such as Daine Laurie, Jojo Fifita, Zac Lomax, Josh King, Max King, Jake Simpkin, Luke Garner were selected so take selection with a pinch of salt.
Griffin sucked with us, sucked with the Panthers and now sucks with the Dragons.
I'd bet that he will suck with the next NRL club foolish enough to give him a chance as well.
But assuming Dolphins offered him more money that we did it doesn't really matter what Staggs is on.
Point is he cant answer by saying he went to the Dolphins because they offered him more money than the Broncos...nicer to make up something about wanting to play with the ex Storm players...
Dolphins will be looking to replace their aging forwards like Bromwich, Kaufusi, Wallace etc for 2025 when Payne is available. The performance so far (if only 3 rounds) of Hammer, Katoa and JMK has possibly put the need for a franchise spine signing on ice so they can really go hard for Haas...
That's bad news for the Titans as he was a good pickup for them. With the way results are going though i think they will still be in the picture for a top 8 spot when he returns.
I take your point about not needing to build a team around a prop if you have 3/4 of the spine as good players but premierships are still won with an equally good forward leader(s)
We had Langer and Walters/Lewis for 4 years and didn't come really close (maybe 1990 but got smacked by both grand...
