2017 Under 20's

[Spike]

Pretty poor form. The media aspect of the Broncos have always been below average.

Pretty poor form. The media aspect of the Broncos have always been below average.

Especially when it comes to the under 20s, like we know nothing about them

Any news or score updates on how U20s are going against Gold Coast?

 

[talanoa]

Has run the 100 in 10.91 . So could turn out to be pretty quick. Anyone seen him play ?

i seen him last year for ippy grammar. he is a hell of a mover

 

[Danoz Direct]

Anyone end up getting out to this game? Anyone in particular who impressed?

Didn't see it but the boys won 24-22

 

[Spike]

I see the Rugby League Week has the entire Bronco’s under 20 team list within its publication released last Monday. It’s disappointing to see the Broncos cannot follow suit and update the under 20’s player profiles.

 

[Big Pete]

Was it the same as the Top 20 squad listed in the 2017 Season Guide?

Corey Allan
Gerome Burns
Patrick Carrigan
Julian Christian
Sam Elliott
David Fauid
Joshua Fauid
Thomas Flegler
Kobe Hetherington
Keegan Hipgrave
Tristian Hope
Lachlan Lanskey
Clayton Mack
Haydn O'Hara
Keenan Palasia
Gehamat Shibasaki
Kotoni Staggs
Steve Tatipata
Jai Whitbread
Brent Woolf

 

[Spike]

Yes Big Pete this is the list in the season guide. Most NRL teams have updated the Payer Profiles, however Broncos do this poorly.

 

[Big Pete]

Yeah, even by NRL standards the Broncos are incredibly lazy with this information.

I can't say I blame them though. Even if the NYC was to survive another season, the NRL did nothing to grow the competition and the lack of promotion usually gave fans no reason to care about the games. Personally, some of the best memories I've had recently at Suncorp have involved the U20s but if you ask the lay person, you'll be lucky to even get a cliff notes version of the game.

'Yo Cletus, ya see the 20s?'
'Yeah Frank, the boys lost it on the bell 36-32'
'Do you ever think they'll learn how to tackle?'
'Good one Frank'

 

[Sirlee oldman]

Are they replacing the U/20s with a reserve grade competition?

 

[Big Pete]

No, the only replacement is that the state based competitions will have their own U20s competition.

They also scrapped the Queensland U16s competition.

Bummer. I think we could put together a really good reserve grade team that would be worth watching.

Totally agree! I would like to see final squad & how trials went
