Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[Kooly87]

Also, 360 will be interesting tonight, how do they handle all of this and turn it all into negatives for the Broncs?

“Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!”​

Broncos can’t keep Coates even when offering him more and have over paid for a centre with a serious knee injury and bad off field behaviour.

Don't help them.

 

[Nightwatchman]

Hasn't almost every article when someone leaves added in good news Broncos will likely re-sign Staggs? This has been going on almost two months now, are we going to pay him $3 million a season? Because despite losing almost everyone, apparently we still need Lodge to go so we can afford to pay for a halfback.

Its been confirmed on the NRL website that he has been resigned. Yay!

Staggs re-signs until end of 2025 but Coates, Lodge future clouded

Strike centre Kotoni Staggs has committed to the Brisbane Broncos on a four-year contract to the end of the 2025 season.

The Broncos going all out to get a 7 fills me with confidence

The Broncos deciding that Mitch Moses IS the 7 that we need, takes it all away again

That's the scary part about being all in on Staggs, it's success is basically wholly contingent on us getting a result with one of Reynolds, Moses or SJ.

I guess we're still alive on all three technically, but bloody hell that's a nervous wait we're all in for now. I can't handle another 4 years of blaming the poor sod at Halfback for our 5/8 just never wanting to do his job.

This reminds me of the old Age of Empires game:

'Darkness called...but I was in the shower. I tried to call darkness back...but he ignored me.'

Fox Sports reporting that Connor Tracey has extended his deal at the Sharkies..... would that mean SJ is likely to be coming here? Or have the Sharks missed out on Reynolds? Maybe they're just impressed with Tracey on the wing?

I'd say we are definitely getting Reynolds or SJ but which one remains to be seen.

Ive got a feeling we are going to get Reynolds.

Ive got a feeling we are going to get Reynolds.

So do I just quietly.

 

[Waynesaurus]

With Staggs re-signing to play 6, now going hard for a 7 and Drinkwater re-signing with the Cowgirls, I have the feeling a Milf to fullback experiment may just return next year.

Please, don't say it out loud. Have we still not learned our lessons here?

 

[Kooly87]

So do I just quietly.

Why? Surely SJ is the one more likely to be amenable to a move to Brisbane?

 

[Sproj]

Just a hunch. I would be very happy with either.

if you were Reynolds which pack would you prefer to play behind

 

[Kooly87]

if you were Reynolds which pack would you prefer to play behind

I take your point, but at this stage in his career, I suspect it's more about 'What suburb do I want to live in? What school do I want my kids to go to?"

 

[Kooly87]

I'd take either as well. We desperately, desperately need either. I'm nervous we'll miss out on both, but if I was rating our chances I'd figure the Kiwi bloke with no strong ties to Sydney was probably a more likely prospect.

Redfern / Red Hill - it is pretty similar.

Maybe Bellamy actually doesn’t rate Coates at all and has signed him knowing full well that he will be head of football at the Broncos next year? A man can dream...
