Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[upthebroncs]

This week.

Less than the number of useless remarks aimed towards me. Should I feel special that people feel the need to derail the discussion just to attempt to insult me?

 

[upthebroncs]

So we have trade this

Glenn
TPJ
Lodge
Coates
Milford

For this

C Jensen
Capewell
Reynolds
Lee
Pereira

Plus depending on what you read and when you read it we have enough in the cap bank for a good to elite signing which could be Gagai.

Now if you'd told me that 12 months ago along with extending the likes of Riki, Staggs, Piakura, Robati and Farnsworth, getting DD and Ikin sorting out our roster and cap situation I'd be very happy. Definitely moving in the right direction.

I agree, I'm liking the direction even if I don't agree with every thing that happens.. It's still the right direction

They are obviously lining up another big signing or they wouldn't have been so eager to hand off TPJ for cap benefit next season

Does Walters have any other children?

narelle is eyeing off Alfie’s job.

I thought he would have grabbed the ball in goal, but then got a nasty bounce which by then he had over ran it and desperately threw out his leg.

Nasty bounce

The ball couldn't have bounced more favourably. It took a left hand AWAY from the Tigers giving him ample time to simply scoop it up! He damn near could have picked it up with both hands and run the length of the field. He was lazily jogging along, much like Isaako was often accused of and had ample time. It was a shit effort.

It's been mentioned on here about chasing Joseph Manu.
I think he is the fullback that the Broncos should be looking to recruit for 2023. He has all the skills needed for fullback and I love his never say die attitude.
Unfortunately I just don't think Niu, Isaako or Farnsworth have what it takes to be a top tier fullback.
Cobbo could potentially develop as a good fullback in time but he could also be a good centre or winger.
To have the class of Manu would make all the difference and these days fullback is such a pivotal position that you really need a gun there.

Hooker, well that's another issue that needs to be sorted because Turpin has shown us what he's got and to be honest it's not what Broncos need to threaten for a premiership in the future.
Brandon Smith would be a great pick up because his high energy and never say die attitude is definitely needed and I think he can be a game changer for us.
Surely some money is being freed up to be able to recruit spine players that we so desperately need to put Broncos on the path to being a top 4 club again.
Wouldn't that be awesome!!!.

If you want to tempt Manu here, probably need his current coach here as well...

Which we should absolutely be trying to do...

Im hearing Finucane is moving to the Cows.

Which means B Smith gets the 13 and Melbourne can now use both him and Grant in their spine.

You’re right, it’s obviously everyone else and not you.

Yes. I am here to talk about footy.

 

[WASSHHH]

Yes. I am here to talk about footy.

And that’s fantastic, truly. As we all are.

But given how many posts you make suggesting every Tom, Dick and Harry under the sun, I think it is also fair to wonder if you ever filter your posts, or simply post about every possible player that enters your mind.

The NRL is not Pokemon, you can’t catch them all (well, unless you’re the Roosters).

You realise that I'm not saying that we sign every one? I am throwing out suggestions to start discussions.. We are in a forum to discuss things. You know that you're the one being idiotic right now?

We can talk about signing Pereira while also discussing Rapana.. They're pretty interchangeable as wingers.. We can discuss which one we should sign out of the two.. Not that hard to understand.

Where are the Cows getting their money from? They are locked in big time with JT and Holmes, overspent on Townsend and now they are going in big on Finucane.

Must be going to let Mclean or Hess go.

Correct

If you don’t think we should sign them, why mention them? Or are you one of those people that speaks just to hear the sound of their own voice?

I’m not trying to be rude, but honestly, I don’t get it.

You're saying I want to sign all of them. If we have 1 wing spot to fill and I mention 3 wingers then I am brainstorming who we should sign out of the 3. Is that not fair? Why only have one option per position available in our squad? Seems silly.

There isn't much to get mate.

I don’t think three wingers is all you’ve suggested, but I can’t be bothered going back to highlight all the players you’ve suggested we consider and / or sign, so I’ll just leave it at you being right and me being wrong.

At some point though you will realise that when multiple people make the same remarks to you about something, there is only one common element.

I wouldnt be against a cut price offer (<300k) to Fergo for a season or 2.
