You guys may wanna be careful what you disagree with me on. Maybe think it through a bit longer.

So we could be losing Bullemor and we just announced we re-signed Arthars for two years.. Horrible salary cap management.

I'd rather keep Bullemor and play next year with a 29 man squad.

I'd probably agree although I'm not as impressed with Bully as the majority of fans are. Same with Arthars though, he doesn't resemble anything close to a first grader.

Wolfie and Carrigan, Huge and Kennedy, upthebroncos and Bullemor.

Love stories that will last throughout the ages.

I'm disappointed - Sproj and Flegler.

Here is an interesting question because I am trying to be pragmatic about it all, which one would you lose instead of Bullemor:

1. Haas
2. Flegler
3. Carrigan
4. Robati
5. Riki
6. Piakura
7. Willison
8. Hetherington

It is a shame because we always had to lose one I suppose (remember, we need experience and there are more kids coming through, even with the Vaas being poached). I think Bullemor looks as talented as anyone but one or two won't make it in our squad of kids because of how deep they bat. Who of the above would you lose instead of Ethan?

Is piakura better than bullermor?

Kelly extends 1 year

Good question. They are totally different players though, so hard to judge I suppose..

Carrigan.

The bigger problem is if we lose the Bull for someone like Ryan James..

I will need there to be a new Brisbane team in the comp asap if that happens.

I'd rather have less depth in the backs if it meant keeping Bullemor. Why are we signing plodders to waste space in the 30? Arthars is useless!

 

[theshed]

Not yet but Piakura has the potential to be the best of the lot if he can transfer his talents to first grade.

Hes way too late to the party. Some of us were talking about Bullemor before before the hype.

 

[Battler]

And Alex Leapai Jnr.

Roosters can, and do, sign anyone they want and, even more annoyingly, it’s clear they are free to do so.

Dno what the point of the salary cap is at this stage when you have a club dominating like Melbourne are Rn, or a top 4 that rarely changes. At least the popular clubs would be dominate without the salary cap

Ha ha. It won't be Carrigan. You can put your house on that one.

Before the hype

I've known about him for years

Sorry @Wolfie

 

[upthebroncs]

At least Roosters have done us a favour and made sure we don't have to worry about any more pesky young gun forwards.

Note the number on his back and role in those games.

Is piakura better than bullermor?

Depends what you want and what suits your team- Piakura is classic second row- hole runner like Menzies or Cordner- classic defender low and hard. He relies on other players like halves to have an impact.

Bullemor has made his own ground, space, tries since MM with pace and quick reaction.

If you want a forward running off a half I'd go Piakura if you want someone pin balling around the field and danger in the middle go Bullemor.

You don't have to apologise for your lack of intelligence.
