Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[ozzball]

They certainly never picked Turncoates on the strength of his defensive work or his carries off of our goal line. Which is a major concern in an origin game.

That's true mate and I wouldn't be picking Fifita for the same reason ... based on his form this season he's there purely on the strength of his press-clippings and the golden child he's reputed to be not on any consistent, stand-out performances.

 

[Harry Sack]

Him and Ofahengaue really did not deserve to make the origin side.

Stupid injuries. Su'A you can make a case for, he was pretty decent last Origin from memory but Offa has obviously been brought in due to the injury to Collins.

 

[upthebroncs]

Oh no. YouTube clips are back

Oh no, I thought you may have out grown being toxic by now

 

[Wolfie]

Oh no, I thought you may have out grown being toxic by now

I thought you might have............Never mind, its probably not possible.

And if you think thats toxic grow a thicker skin kid.

 

[Wolfie]

There is certainly some talent in ISC, but i dont think there is much in the way of fullbacks, Halves or hookers who would make a blind bit of difference to our side. If we want a forward with the potential for some development, then it has to be Jordan Grant. I've my my opinion clear on which center i think we should go for. Outside of that, most of the younger guys we would want are probably linked with us anyway.

I'm tempted to make a highlight video of some random QCUP player to see if upthebroncs will somehow find it and post it and say we should sign him

He already knows every single one of them

And another one bites the dust.

why because another team has made him an offer?

I mean, don't the Warriors over everyone a contract and almost no one takes it? Also, we often joke about the Titans and Roosters having endless caps but the Warriors are just as bad.

they'd be stacked in the halves and fullback already as well with Walsh, Kodi and CHT.

and despite Fox today saying our offer was only $1 million over 3 years ... reportedly upped it on Friday closer to 500k a year now (although doubt we'll go too much higher)

 

[Unbreakable]

In hindsight it was 100% the wrong decision to let Nikorima go. A halves combination of Nikorima & Reynolds is nearly the perfect combination of running game & game management.

Such a shame that we couldn't see back then that Milford would somehow continue to deteriorate the way he has.

We could probably go KNik back if we really wanted to.

 

[Mightybroncs2k17]

If Hynes goes elswhere (every day that he doesn't sign i lose confidence we will get him) i think we have to chase Hodgson or someone similar for next year. To me, we are still a ball player short if isako/cobbo are at the back and staggs gets a shot at 6 as is been suggetsed with turpin at hooker.

Reynolds is a great organsier but he will have zero support unless we play croft beside him next year. We need someone who can share the kicking (probably only 15%) and also ball play at least to some extent. Without that you rush up on Reynolds every play and we are pretty much blunted.

 

[theshed]

I wouldn’t pay 500k for Hynes

 

[Kimlo]

I wouldn’t pay 500k for Hynes

I'd up the offer to 400, take it or leave it.

 

[WASSHHH]

And another one bites the dust.

Good endorsement for Walsh.

Don’t worry Reece, you’ve told everyone you came to NZ for the culture and what we are doing over here, definitely not the money, and that’s OK, because we want Hynes to play 6 (but if you shit the bed, he can play there too so we will wipe you like a dirty arse, but we’re all in on you, promise. Totes serious).

It wasn't exactly Sophie's Choice.

What happened was Moses organised a deal where Nikorima could earn nearly twice his pay. Kodi went to Seibs and asked him what his long term future was and Seibs told him it'd be utility. Kodi decided to take the Warriors offer on and it was 100% the right call for him.

It wasn't like the Warriors came up to Brisbane and offered to take either off the Broncos hands.

The club has been trying to white ant Milford since the Bankwest debacle.
