Someback water shit footy site is reporting Dylan Napa to sign with us, but Hunt may be going to the Eels in 2018...
Wow Napa to the Broncos and Hunt to the Eels, haven't heard that before.

I always laugh at the Ben Hunt to Eels rumour.

Because he sat on the bench for 4 years playing 15 minutes a game at hooker and continually turned down bigger offers to play his preferred position as a starter. He turned them down due to his love of the club.

Now he has become one of the teams most important players, starting in his preferred position on good coin ... and that's when he decides to leave.

The only time I'll ever believe that rumour to be true is when he runs out in an opposing teams jersey

If it comes down to Ben Hunt leaving it would be Bennett's doing not his own. Bennett won't let a player he needs leave the club without backup.

I'm fairly certain it was the Eels Hunt almost signed with but knocked back to remain at the Broncos on far less coin and with an unclear path to starting in first grade. In saying that, I hope when we do re-sign Hunt, it's on good money.

Key question is how does it compare to a brick shithouse???

In a battle to the death, the harder but lighter granite would lose ground yet remain intact. The brick shithouse would gain territorial ascendance but shatter in the process. So kind of like Andrew McCullough vs George Burgess, with the Burgii making ground then dropping the ball.

It was the Knights while Bennett was still at the club

Here is what a site says that I found


It is understood that talented Roosters Dylan Napa has become home sick and has requested for a early release so he can join the Brisbane Broncos from 2017.


Dylan Napa supported the Broncos as a kid and grew up idolising Broncos players such as Gorden Tallis and Darren Lockyer and now is believed to want to join the club he loved growing up.


The Rooster’s are currently trying to convince the 194 centimetres and 109 kilograms wrecking ball to remain at the club, but it is understood Napa has made his decision and is set on moving home to Brisbane.

The Broncos are excited about the prospect of adding one of the most talented young props in todays game to their squad for 2017, but as it stands the salary cap will not allow such move.


It is believed the sign of Benji Marshall on a contract on around $150,000 per-season and the re-signing of utility Kodi Nikorima, gives Wayne Bennett and the Broncos the flexibility to allow the early release of Ben Hunt.


By all reports the Parramatta Eels and Ben Hunt are close to agreeing to terms for the 2018 season, when Hunt comes off contract with the Bronco, but a Napa Move up north could fast tract this deal 12 months.

Everything comes down to the Roosters and whether or not they are willing to release Napa from his 2017 contract. Reports are the deal is set to happen.

The website you found that on has zero credibility.

Even less credibility than the mole has.
