Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[Kimlo]

Where the Tupou chat come from? Realistically he is just a safer, less flashy version of Coates

He's off contract which is why I mention it at all. I don't actually think (or know) of that being in the picture at all.

 

[Foordy]

Exclusive...four minutes after Read. Deadset that Badel guy is embarrassing.

shhhh ... you'll upset McHunt who for some unknown reason thinks Badel is more reliable than Read

Dufty would be my first choice fullback signing. Hynes is a strong second but Hynes does have the ability to be a handy 5/8 if the Staggs experiment is a flop so I probably would be pretty happy with either.

We should get you on the job of signing dufty...you’d steal him right out under their noses even if he’d agreed to terms

 

[Foordy]

Badel has now linked us to Vunivalu

It's Badel but I'd take him in a heartbeat. I take it Walters believes having an elite winger is important, so I half buy this rumour.

Now this I’m here for.

So is he trying to get out of his Reds contract? Seems strange a guy who left the storm to play union for the Reds and most likely Wallabies since nearly every NRL player who has left pretty much ends up in a wallabies jumper within 12 months.

Gee we are really trying to become the Aldi Melbourne Storm.

TBF, it wasn't the strongest link. highlights of the article:

• Vunivalu has had his troubles since joining the Reds
• The Reds are reluctant to release him
• he is on 700k a year at the Reds
• we've discussed him and would be interested at the right price if he want back in league

Basically he went to the reds, got in trouble off the field, got injured and hasn’t been able to get back in the side... Brad Thorn is a very ethics and moral oriented coach so him doing something like that would put vunivalu in his bad books so he is definitely an achievable signing

 

[LittleDavey]

If Brad Thorn doesn't want him, neither do I. Hard pass thanks.

Love you Thornie!!

 

[Sproj]

Vunivalu would be wonderful but it originates from Badel, so it isn't happening sadly.

 

[BroncosFever]

About Dufty, he has a few highlight reel moments but reading what Dragon's fans have said he also has some shockers in his game too, sounds like another Isaako

 

[Galah]

Do not want

 

[Galah]

I hate the grubby Bastard. Beef Vindaloo is what I call him, great at the time but the shit you have to deal with after...

I really hope it isn’t true

 

[Fitzy]

Yeah with Vunivalu I still reckon go after a fullback first and if we’re not satisfied with Isaako on the wing either go after edrick or sign someone else like Vunivalu

 

[Xzei]

Any truth to the rumor of cook asking for a release?

Damien? I haven’t seen it and I doubt it
