Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2021

[Cult]

Did I imagine it? Entirely possible. Good news then. 5 spots available.

Corey Allan, Dane Gagai, Kurt Capewell, John Asiata and Harry Grant obviously.

Who we will sign- David Mead, Dale Copley, Ben Te’o, John Asiata on a massive contract and Isaak Luke.

Copley announced. And it begins

 

[Petch67]

It is slightly concerning tho that if it has taken Joe's money to get Asiata across the line WTF has happened to the dollars from Boyd/Fifita/Bird.

Probably gone into the pockets of the absolute ***** running the club

Aren't Teo and Luke already in the top 30?

Thought they were both unsigned for next year both were the remainder of the year deals

 

[Locky's Left Boot]

If we were not to get allan for full back, i am gathering that mead may be looked at for this position (given that he played a fair bit of it in england) in addition to our other options (nui, isaako). However, what are "people in the know" opinion of edene gebbie? He was released by the rabbits due to covid/getting mitchell. i dont get to watch qld cup

Gebbie is very talented but can be very lazy. He's back with the Hunters for next year. They'll be based in Brisbane for the 2021 season

 

[Foordy]

nope. neither have been re-signed

 

[theshed]

We still desperately need a long term fullback but of a few signing rumours are true regarding Mead, Asiata, and maybe Chambers we have good competition for backline spots for next season and some experienced NRL players to keep the young guys honest. Possibly move Lodge on and get one more decent mid range second rower with experience and we should be mid table if Kev and his mates show any chops for coaching.

1. ?? (Farnworth/Isaako/Mead)
2. Farnworth/ Isaako / Mead
3. Copley
4. Chambers / Staggs
5. Coates / Kenner
6. Milford
7. Dearden
8. Carrigan
9. Macca
10. Haas
11. Glenn
12. TPJ
13. Asiata

14. Turpin
15. Flegler
16. Oates / Riki
17. Lodge

18. Paix
19. Kennedy
20. Bullimor
21. Niu

our forward depth is a bit worrying without another decent experienced player. Especially if Lodge is gone

 

[TimWhatley]

nope. neither have been re-signed

I had the idea that unsigned players would be gone post post Nov 1.

 

[theshed]

Someone’s gone off early with Asiata

 

[IceWorks]

Preparing the powder for a 5M 5year deal for Grant and also to target a 2nd quality spine player.. just a rumour I heard.

That's a great rumour !

 

[holdzy]

Where's that Mitch guy at??

 

[Allo]

I wouldnt worry mate, you are a top poster here. Sometimes people get told things, then things can just change overnight. Getting offered about $400 or $500k a year extra can have an impact! Its happened to me a couple of times where i've told things to people privately then things change and you end up looking silly!

There was PNG guy too who was hanging out with the origin boys at the central coast

 

[BooKhaki]

Signing Copley. Wow.

 

[Petch67]

Eh, I’d take the extra 300k per year too and if the broncos felt that hard done by I’d ask them to give me a quote for how much it cost them to bail me out and send them a cheque.

A carton of bintangs and a carton of Marlboro
