2019 Broncos Line-up

[Mitch06]

No, he wanted a fortune to stay here and he was being a little shit about it. Wanted a spot in the team without earning it so we let him go on his way.

Good call. That's the last type of person you want in any organisation.

MUNSTER WAS SNUBBED BY BRISBANE

STORM sensation Cameron Munster has finally set the record straight on claims he was rejected by the Broncos.
Brisbane developments scouts have consistently denied brushing Munster as a teenager but the Queensland Origin star has confirmed his Broncos snubbing.
“I went to a couple of their (development) programs in Brisbane,” Munster told Fox Sports’ League Life program on Wednesday night. “My manager spoke to them and they weren’t interested.
“They didn’t think I was good enough at that time. I was a mad Broncos fan and I used to look up to Darren Lockyer (former Brisbane skipper), it was a tough time ... I just kept playing Queensland Cup with their feeder side (Central Queensland Capras).
“I played against Easts Tigers in one televised game and the Storm scouts were there. They asked if I was contracted to the Broncos and I said no. I got offered a deal by the Bulldogs as well but the Storm had ‘Bellyache’ (coach Craig Bellamy) and the Big Three (Cooper Cronk, Billy Slater and Cameron Smith), so I felt I could get the best out of myself there.”

That hurts!

Like when our fullback got a dodgy hammy? Pfft just play them the whole season.

Play them for the whole season and give them a 4 year contract extension on $750k / year even though they are on the wrong side of 30*

You gotta be fucking kidding me. So he was actually in our feeder club, where I imagine he would have had various people from the club watching him regularly, yet nobody could see what talent he had all that time?!

Yet it only took one game that the Storm talent scouts happened to be watching by chance and they essentially sign him up on the spot. What the **** do our recruitment team get paid to do, sit on the sidelines and update their facebook statuses the whole game!? Useless bloody clipboard chomping, pen pushing mouth-breathers we have at this club!

Munster by his own admission was a late bloomer. Coming through the grades he was a dummy half and wasn't anything special. It wasn't until he made the move to fullback it all began to click for him. He had interest from all three clubs (Broncos, Bulldogs and Storm), but Melbourne offered him the best deal and got their man.

He went into more depth on the Kemp podcast a few years back.

You sound jealous.

Yet, the storm scouts saw something we obviously were too blind to see. He was a huge Broncos fan growing up, we could have got him for a bargain price and our woes in the halves that are so evident now would never have eventuated. The storm took a chance and now they have the Qld Origin 5/8.

It always seems to be that if there are 2 blokes being considered by us when it comes to signing a player on potential/talent, 9 times out of 10 we choose the wrong player. Oh don't worry though, we have a wonderfully talented bunch of forwards, we can just fill all 13 spots with them. We don't need backs, we'll be right.

You seriously couldn't make this shit up when it comes to our club.

That's not right, all three clubs saw something in him by that stage.

settle down ...

The Storm didn't see his talent any quicker than we did, and when the clubs spotted his talent, they made him offers (our club included)

2012- 2 games.
2013- 22 games, 12 tries.

Rookie of the year for the ISC. Jason Hetherington has told me plenty of times he spoke to the Broncos and told them I have a kid here.

Still one of my favourite ever ISC tries.

2014- Storm. It was Harry Grant's dad that tipped off Bunn in the end. Seibold signed him too on his weekend home to Rocky.

Another storm player with a grudge against the broncos, no wonder we cant beat these pricks.

 

[WASSHHH]

I honestly don’t care how good Munster looks at the moment.

He’s got talent, no doubt. But I’ll watch with interest how good he is once the third on-field ref retires.

Also, he’s a first-class twat. That’s been confirmed by a number of people I know who went to school with him at Emmaus in Rocky and still see him when he returns. Their words: he is no better now, if nothing, he’s worse.

Why is this important? Well, when his form starts to waver, like it does with every player, there is a strong chance he will twat it up even more and I get the feeling he’ll be a lot like Farah was in his first stint at Wests.

Personally, I’m glad he’s not at the Broncos.

 

[Morepudding]

I just think it's hilarious after all the talk from the old boys last week, Darius coming out saying he's happy with his form, and then for us to lose for the same reasons of all our defeats this year, and for again Darius Boyd to somehow not be involved in a potential try saving tackle all happens again. If you watch the reply Boyd rushed up and is about 1m away from Brooks and doesn't tackle him. Then runs around in a circle before falling over from Being dizzy.

**** it does feel that way,

 

[Wolfie]

Jayden and Isiah are pretty much dickheads in all honesty, I dont really know Harlem, but Kodi from my experience isnt really like the first 2 i mentioned.

 

[tommy]

you see interviews when they talk about annoying or dirty players and his name has come up a few times.

Really? Honestly can't recall. Can you link us?

He seems like a twat, but we've had a good number of twats at the Broncos too. The funny thing about twats is they are either our twats (good) or their twats (bad).

In terms of talent, I think he's the best 5/8th in the game right now, alongside Keary. Both are noticeably developing too.
