Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[Tristan1990]

just need to ask kevvy apparently....

You won't need 800k- a third of the contract is done already.

How have they even got $600k ?

 

[1910]

How have they even got $600k ?

Don't have a clue.

Common sense tells me Smith can't wait until March and then expect his Storm salary- the longer he waits he will have to accept less and less. Like SBW had to- you don't get a full years wage for half the work.

 

[BRC088]

Someone's paying him at the moment. What car is he driving?

What's the deal with titans and Marsden high ?

Presumably his own.

 

[nopatience101]

Does Smith even have an accredited agent atm?

And I know that this is going to get shot down, but in Folau's own mind, in the context of what he said, he is not vilifying someone for their sexuality, but for their actions. The literal act of sleeping with someone of the same sex. The religion that he preaches is very strict, and suggests that anything that goes against the greater good should be resisted and condemned. The smallest lies are just as sinful as any other sin etc. What he believes is that, even if you are inclined to be attracted to people of the same sex, you should resist these urges for the greater good (the greater good in this case being to value the gift of life, and therefore procreate, because that's what they believe sex should only be used for).

Is it unreasonable and outdated thinking for our modern society? For sure, but he is just wanting people to hold themselves to a higher standard than what society would generally agree is reasonable.

Meninga on the Titans signing Smith:

“I wasn’t behind the toilet shed trying to sign him I can tell you. He won’t be with us, simple as that.”

So that’s how the Titian’s got Fifita over the line

Such a weird thing to say.

Seggy’s drug ban has been backdated and he can play again in June.

do we dare?

No point really. Turps, Paix and Luke

He will be at the Dragons, mark my words. With McInnes out, Hook will sign him up as back-up for Macca. If it happens, I daresay Seggy and Norman together will create lots of fun off-field headlines lol. They are best bumchums in their little YKTR club.

 

[BRC088]

Why not..

 

[Sproj]

Yep. He’s heaps better than Luke or Paix and possibly even Turpin but I hope Turpin will surprise us this year.

That said (and it will never happen) if Smith was gettable, you’d drop everything to sign him.

 

[Lockysillegitimatechild]

No point really. Turps, Paix and Luke

If he's kept himself fit I'd take him back if he has the right attitude. He'd suit the new rules far more then any of those guys above. Was spewing he wasn't around for us with them, would have made a bit of a difference I believe

some quotes from everyone's favourite board member, Karl Morris, re: Cam Smith. The article from Badel has the headline "Brisbane Broncos emerge as shock candidates to sign NRL legend Cameron Smith".

“Look, who wouldn’t want Cam Smith, he is a legend of the game,” he said.

“But I can honestly say I haven’t spoken to him and I don’t know anyone at the Broncos who has spoken to him.

“The ball is in his court. If Cam called any club tomorrow and said he wanted to play for them, including the Broncos, you would send a limousine to his house.

“Which of the 16 clubs would not want Cam on their books? But we haven’t had any talks so we haven’t had any plans to sign him.”

the article also claims that the Titans has the cap space available but Cam Smith never responded to Mal's approach

If you were Smith, Broncos would be the only real option.
1) Club of prestige and history.
2)Dave is the CEO.
3)Walters/Maroons/Smith link.
4)Better chance of winning with Broncos, better squad than Tits.
5)The NRL and media would have a field day. Sponsors and promo galore, would make for a good story.
