Boys, what's the go with Drew? Wasn't there from what I can see from the Broncos members day photos and seen no mention of him lately.

he has been told that he is only required to train with the top squad 1 day a week now, so he is back primarily with the 20's. He is extremely disappointed to say the least and considering some of the other guys in the top squad that are full time in front of him I seriously question the decision. I hope he proves them wrong as I rate him highly.

I don't see all the Drew hype. Why do some people rate him so highly? In my opinion he's average at best. I don't see much in him which would suggest he could become a regular NRL first grader. Seems like another Whitchurch.

Drew seems like a decent enough player but I worry he is being over-hyped, I have never seen him do anything out of the ordinary.

Out of interest who do you believe is in the top squad ahead of him that shouldnt be?

My nines team would consist of all our fringe players plus Glenn, Gillett, Copley & Vidot
The rest can sit at home so they don't get injured. Give our 20s players a run. Last thing I want to see is a major injury to one our main guys for a tournament I couldn't give a **** about. We have bigger ambitions this year. I hope Bennett keeps Milford & Hunt on ice.

Sorry, I don't like ruining annoucements; for a few guys it will be their first announcement in a Broncos' side.

 

[Broncoman]

Not Broncos related but former Raiders winger Ken Nagas is coming out of retirement and is going to play in the 9's. It would be good to see a former great play for us if they are fit enough. Just imagine of Lockyer came back.

I liked the idea that Andrew Ryan (I think) had, get a team or two together of retired players and throw them into the comp.

It's all for spectacle anyway - make it so if the retirees somehow won it it the prizemoney goes to charity or something.

I think that'd be great. Something like;

1. Minichello
2. Sailor
3. Gasnier
4. Finch
5. Minto
6. Lockyer
7. Fittler
8. Hindmarsh
9. Buderus

Would be great fun to watch run around.
