Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

If staggs is actually on the reported 700K, do we need to give him a season at 6 before considering switching back to centre if it doesn't work?

I'd like to see him at 6 this year.

With Reynolds at halfback we could literally put anyone we want at 6

This a huge myth IMO. Reynolds at half back means the Broncos don't need an organiser or chief kicker, you still need someone creative to lay on try assists for others.

if he's getting first shot at 6 next year, then as soon as he returns that's where i'd play him. get a head start on his transition (and nearly half a season to determine if it is worth persisting with)

Yup, fail early.

Or with some luck (which we couldn't buy at a luck sale) he will transition really well.

People so starved of good halves at this club that they think Adam Reynolds is Johnathan Thurston.

 

[Xzei]

Would like hynes at 6 and 'milford' at 1 for next year and go hard at either grant or cheese for 2023
Could live wit isaako at 1 and milford on the wing

He's got the kicking game of Thurston or any other superstar halfback we've seen, what I meant is it allows Kevvie room to swap and change his 5/8's around until he finds one he likes

Kevvie will give him four weeks tops.

Milford's never playing for Brisbane again.

Kicking game sure, but few of the other attributes.

I’m very happy to have him but am also realistic of his limitations. He doesn’t set up the tries at south’s and rarely has. It’s all Walker, this season it’s Benji, Walker, and Mitchell.

If we put him next to a half that can’t create points, we will have all the pressure in the world and no one the capitalise on it.

But the milford that im thinking about his career is just starting

 

[Sproj]

Bear in mind, Staggs, K.Hunt and Croft are injured, so if Gamble or Kelly go down, it isn't out of the realms of possibility.

Oh my, my life is complete. McHunt commented on my post. :)

Broncos equivalent of getting to shag your celebrity crush.

Now I just need to **** a porn star and my to do list is complete.

Conversely, if our forwards get us in good position the pressure is off Reynolds. He can earn a set restart. Start them in the corner & Staggs can run the ball or (if we get) Hynes he can chime in with some ball playing.
The key will be getting a hooker who can add some spark, not just be a one out passer like Turpin. Hopefully Paix gets some more game time towards the end of the season or Hetherington can overtake Turpin to give us more attacking options.

Courier Mail (Badel) reporting that Milford's career at the club is all but over and he won't be offered a new contract for 2022

Well, I hope he gets him to stay away altogether. I mean I personally wouldn't want him hanging around bagging me for dropping him (were I the coach)

Sure, have a break up party at the seasons end and turn it on for him, after all he's been here a long time. I don't think many of us expected the club to offer him anything and we were correct to think that. In some respects he was as big a flop as Bird. I won't miss his contributions. By the way, has anyone ever heard him speak? I can't remember if I have, honestly I cannot recall if I have or not.
