Not sure if this has already been posted, but it looks like we've upgraded from chicken sandwiches.

The $30 investment that led Hunt back to the Broncos

Knowing they had to pull at Ben Hunt’s heartstrings, the Broncos killed the fatted calf for their prodigal son.

According ing to Meyn Hunt's signing has put 4 players in the firing line. Mam, Reynolds, Walters and Mozer. As usual it's a rugby league reporter talking out of their ass.

But here is his reasoning:

Mam:
If we're winning, then Madge would be reluctant to change the team, making Ms spot unclear when he returns from his likely suspension.

Reynolds
Spent a fair bit of time injured lad year, so Hunt could force the skipper into retirement

Billy
Hunt could be shifted to hooker which would squeeze Walters out of the starting team, and potentially Brisbane’s top 17.

Mozer
Mozer is off contract at the end of 2025 and Hunt will be a roadblock and there is no clear path to the starting team.

P.s. he doesn't say that Hunt has put Paix or Smoothys position in the squad in jeopardy, maybe he thinks they're our best hookers

Of that list the only one who may be in trouble is Billy. Unless we're absolutely blitzing it with the Hunt/Reynolds combo, Mam will at some point come back into the 6. Depending on how Mozer is going, Hunt will either take over the starting 9 or move to 14 IMO.

As others have said, the ones in real danger are Madden, Paix and Smoothy.

The way I heard it was that when he came into the dressing rooms after the game he was in tears and very distraught. Benny told him to take a seat and as he sat down he leaned forward still in tears to put his head in his hands - and missed.

Well played sir you got me to laugh at my desk. Executed to perfection.
