Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2023

[Chewed]

Nice. I love Walsh, but he needs to watch his back here. Tristan is VERY similar to him in skill set but he has a bit more maturity, he doesn't throw the hail mary, kick on the first and is very humble.

It's amazing to have this competition between them for the next two year. He can be our 1,6,7 eventually, has all the skill.

I would assume this is the plan with Coby Black?

He's 16. He could be five years off playing NRL.

Or he could come on in leaps and bounds and play in two and a half…

Early 20's is much more realistic for a half than 18, straight out of Meninga to NRL.

Yeah but Mam was in ISC at 18, NRL at 19 and I’m sure you’d call him established this year. Not saying it’s probable, just that it’s possible.

I am also assuming that Reynolds goes at least one more year in 2025 which would put Black at 18/19 and coming in with Mam at 21/22, Walsh 22/23 and Mozer 20/21. All three hopefully are established by then and allows us to nurture Black. I’m sure a stop gap can be found if needed. There’s always a Schneider/Lam/Trindall/Rogers around if needed.

Have Reynolds playing for as long as possible imo, even if it ends up as a Weekend at Bernie's sceniaro.

The other 3 spine players are likely to be the ones you mentioned who are all very young and will still be very young when the time comes to bring in a new 7.

I think if the NRL sticks with this tackling the kicker crackdown they have been doing lately, it probably adds a season or two to Reynolds career, because it's those tackles that he is at most risk of injury.

Rogers will be nearly 30 by then.

You’re right with Mam. 16 year 12 just seems very young and a long way from NRL.

I’ve watched him play against the NRL boys but that doesn’t tell you too much.

Edit: Ignore this. Trusted a RT on twitter and it was a fake Petey account.

Badel saying Payne is set to snub Rugby to sign a 4 year extension.

So he's off to Rugby.

where did you see Badel Jinx us like that

How's Badel getting any info after his attacking of Reece... more likely to be his agent giving him the info to try and get more money out of the ARU

 

[Organix]

Pay the Payne

 

[Organix]

The ref was playing on... it was likely another bunker call coming in

lol I corrected this. wrong thread

 

[Brocko]

I've been got. Trusted a RT on twitter and now the accounts back to not being Badel

 

[Mustafur]

When are we going to give a Mam an extension, I'm getting worried how he is open to talk to clubs in November.

Scanlan:

“Tristan is a great story. He came here to Queensland himself. I remember he was kicking a football on the field with Jordan Pereira one day and he said he had joined Souths Logan. He started with Souths Logan midway through last year and made a difference to them straight away, so we offered him a train-and-trial deal. Then he was brilliant for us in pre-season and he was rewarded with a development contract. Reece is obviously our first-choice fullback but it’s great to have another option in Tristan, who can play a number of positions.”​

“Tristan is a natural trainer. He has a good work ethic, great attitude towards training and good endurance and speed. He has good instincts as a footy player, but he is also very smart. He thinks ahead and at fullback, he makes that difference, he has that athleticism and speed and he is very smart in the way he plays. Tristan is a great athlete.”​

Reynolds:

“Tristan has been unreal. He has trained the house down, he has earned an upgrade on his contract and he has been preparing us really well and manipulating the other team’s star players. When you have someone like that prepping you every week, it gets you up for your own game. He has been one of the key factors in why we have been playing so well.”​

Walters:

“Tristan is just like Reece, he loves playing the game.”​
