No mention of Isaako amongst the candidates... I'm sure it was just a slip up from Kevvie to forget about him, but suggests he's so far down the pecking order in Kevvie's mind that he's forgotten about him

he does mention him there though, “We're also going to put some work into Selwyn Cobbo and Herbie Farnworth, and of course you've got Jamayne Isaako there as well."No mention of Isaako amongst the candidates...

Cobbo seems to have the highest ceiling at fullback fo the 3 but who knowsI do remember at one point about the time selwyn extended that Tesi was said to be a long term centre option.
All 4 have their pros and cons just finding which one is best suited and wants to iron out their flaws
To me, he looks like an aging HB whose body is succumbing slowly due to playing RL since the age of 5. Don't get me wrong, he will aid the Broncos immensely. His footy brain and leadership alone will be worth the price of admission. But if they don't find a quality 6 to partner him, then his effectiveness will be severely stymied. He is desperately going to miss having Cody Walker in his back pocket.Reynolds looks good. Hope he can be one of those rare players that keeps his level over the age of 30
I just really hope we don’t play musical chairs for half the season before he settles on someone.he does mention him there though, “We're also going to put some work into Selwyn Cobbo and Herbie Farnworth, and of course you've got Jamayne Isaako there as well."
Yep, I don’t think he will be here next year.Don't be surprised if he is playing elsewhere next year - have a feeling there are at least 1-2 more players on the move this off season

I think the key to this season will be Kevvie's rapport with Adam. At this stage of Adam's career, he's not there to learn, but to teach. And that's going to be a massive weight lifted from Kevvie's shoulders, if he chooses to accept it. But if Adam does a Darius, we're fucked. Really fucked.To me, he looks like an aging HB whose body is succumbing slowly due to playing RL since the age of 5. Don't get me wrong, he will aid the Broncos immensely.

But that’s the same vice versa… Cody Walker doesn’t have to do the heavy lifting and just inputs himself when and where he wants, next year that will be very different with Milford and a rookie half alongside him.To me, he looks like an aging HB whose body is succumbing slowly due to playing RL since the age of 5.

I am hoping Albert Kelly is savvy enough to fill that Walker role. I think he is to be honest.. He's pretty underrated.To me, he looks like an aging HB whose body is succumbing slowly due to playing RL since the age of 5. Don't get me wrong, he will aid the Broncos immensely.

Adam's part of the best spine in the business right now, and with Latrell, up there with some of the greatest. He'll have some idea of what he wants and who he prefers. Kevvie will get to trial every possible combination around him over the pre-season, but when it comes to the opening round, let's hope they're both on the same page.
At this point, 7 is the only lock. Every other position is up for grabs. Adam will never have played in a team this uncertain before.
Of course. You are right. I was only thinking of the spine and backs.Payne says hello

Payne along with Capewell, and Flegler when he returns are locked in. The rest are musical chairs.
Nope. We don't know where he's playing yet.Staggs?
We're joking if we don't start him at right centre.Nope. We don't know where he's playing yet.

Now I just sit and wait for someone to yell at me that Hetherington is not a hooker...
Personally, I think he would make a good starting 9 with Carrigan at 13.
Ryan James can come off the field after 15-25 mins, Carrigan can switch to prop and Paix can come on at 9 with Hetherington switching to 13.
To me, this line up is how we get our best 17 out on the field..
Now that we have Brenko and Pereira as depth in the backline, we can afford to drop someone if they are not performing.
( If you don't like Cobbo at FB just switch him to centre and Niu to FB, not a big deal )
Niu was horrendous at centre defensively,
