paper loves writing about all these flashy kids signing with Canberra because of the Broncos angle, doesn't mean the Broncos aren't picking up their fair share.

I haven't seen the kid play but honestly if he wasn't Wally's nephew a Souths kid signing with the Raiders wouldn't even make the news. It happens every week and the chances of him going anywhere else was 0.

Hannant denies Gold Coast Titans link | NRL | Zero Tackle
Ben Hannant insists he is committed to the Brisbane Broncos amid speculation the former Maroons prop is considering following the lead of Dunamis Lui and quitting the club.
Brisbane’s planned revival for 2014 had its first ruction Saturday, with promising forward Lui joining Manly on a two-year deal after rejecting a reduced one-year offer from the Broncos.
Broncos coach Anthony Griffin made a last-ditch bid to keep Lui, but the 23-year-old is chasing opportunity after being asked to take a $75,000 pay cut to stay at Red Hill.
Former Test prop Hannant could face a similar conundrum. The 28-year-old is off-contract at the end of next season and has been linked to a move to the Gold Coast Titans in 2015 as a possible replacement for 33-year-old warhorse Luke Bailey.
Hannant is one of Brisbane’s highest-paid players on around $450,000 annually, and his ability to secure another lucrative deal at the Broncos hinges on his performances next season.

Would it be a massive loss losing Hannant on the verge of turning 30 in 2015? It depends how he goes next season to be honest, I think he's great but this year he's been hampered by injuries. A starting prop combo of Kennedy and McGuire in 2015 could be potentially great.

If he wants to go to the titans of all people he can **** off and EAD. The club has stood by him during some pretty average form comparable to his pay packet.

Settle down, he states in the article he has no intention of going and wants to earn a new contract at the Broncos.

Lui is still only young, had potential to be a weapon off the bench, but to be completely honest, we probably wouldn't have had a spot in our 17 for him next season anyway, good on him for taking a chance and I hope he does well down at Manly.

Players that refuse to kick on in their careers are better off elsewhere... I hope we're doing the same with David Hala in 12 months time if he continues to tread water

Thought Lui's last few games were quite impressive actually. We'll probably see him do a Justin Horo next year under a good coaching staff at Manly.

I thought Justin Horo too oddly enough and I think he will go well at Manly.
Caleb Timu is going on a Mormon mission isn't be? What a shame, him and Oates are our future backrow with probably McGuire replacing CP13 when he sadly retires.
