Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2023

Out of the Qld teams Titans seem the worst option to me. They've got a thousand halves coming through the juniors and already have Foran there as a senior half to get them around the field, so Benny turning up starts to become a road block for the juniors coming through. They're not really a...

Anyother signings rumours or squad mostly done

Train and trials VIA Courier Mail apparently about now:

Jayden Morgan (prop), Jack Ahearn (fullback), Liam Horne (hooker), Will Samuel (prop), Shalom O'Ofou (back rower), Tyler Coburn (lock), Tristan Sailor (utility), Max Plath (utility), John Radel (prop).

That leaves two unconfirmed rumours outstanding:

Daejarn Asi: rumoured train & trial. (source The League Scene)
Ben Marschke: rumoured interest. (source @Accept)

I’m assuming Ben is still at the Chooky’s and we would have heard something if Daejarn was on a T+T.
 
Shalom O'ofou could be a handy pick-up for the Broncos. Only 22, Shalom was a member of the Dragons NRL Development squad but struggled to make it onto the field due to injuries. If he can get some time in the middle he could be a handy addition around Origin time.

Morgan is a former NSW Under 20s squad member who's career was thrown into disarray during COVID. After being released from the Dragons NSW Cup side, Morgan linked up with the Cutters where he had some quality performances. Still only 24, he'll be entering his prime as a player and get the opportunity to develop his game training in an NRL system.
 
Any thoughts on whether/when any of these guys might get a game?

Max Plath: utility (trial)
Tristan Sailor: utility (trial)
Liam Horne: hooker (trial)
Tyson Smoothy: hooker
Jock Madden: half
Jack Ahearn: fullback (trial)
Ethan Quai-Ward: wing

Yes, but behind a paywall. Be nice if the club kept its members up to date instead of us having to scavenge for rumours.

I told you weeks ago. How much more notice do you need about ISC players training?
 
I like Plath, I think he is a really good half but not sure he will get a game as he isn't flashy
Sailor - Unlikely unless there are a lot of injuries
Horne - No chance
Smoothy - I hope he's our starting hooker, if it isn't Paix
Madden - Definitely whenever Reynolds is inevitably injured
Ahearn - No chance unless injuries
Quai-Ward - No chance

Link to the post where you told me about all these players. I only recall you telling me about Coburn, and saying he and Ahearn were definite. Also, relying on someone like you, rather than the club, is what I mean by "scavenging for rumours."
