Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2023

[Dexter]

There are murmurs that if the club lets Haas walk they would look at signing Angus Cricton with the freed up cash

Didn't Angus just resign with the chooks and take unders because he doesn't want to leave.

that was the report.

but subsequent reports have said that the Roosters can't fit him under the cap.

NRL.com still have him off contract at seasons end

In fairness, your rumours tend to end up not even being close to happening. What makes this one different?

That’s a bit uncalled for Sprojy. I don’t think we should discourage people to share rumours in the rumour thread.

My favourite was the one where Herbie had already signed with the Dolphins.

Sounds legit to me.

It wasn't an attack, sorry if it came across that way, it was a genuine question.

Eww…….Would be another terrible signing. Don’t need him as we’re abundant with back-rowers. It’s just that they need to start applying themselves every sec of the game

 

[Dash]

I'd love it if we could get Crichton. A backrower actually capable of beating a halfback one-on-one? Sign me up!

Can't agree it would be a terrible signing, especially if Haas is committed to leaving us. We could do a lot worse than Chrichton in a swap.

We might have an abundance of backrowers but Chrichton shits on all of them. Can't see it happening myself though, just doesn't seem the kind of guy to come to the Broncos. Mind you i probably thought that about Reynolds 3 seasons ago.

 

[ZTop]

No we don't need chricton, we have serviceable back rowers. We don't have a serviceable hooker, we need to prioritise this!

 

[Mitchell_Broncos]

What hookers are available on the market I haven’t even looked ….

Nothing good for 2023.

While I completely agree, the 2 aren’t necessarily mutually exclusive

 

[Galah]

Maybe we can get smith for haas lol

Jake Turpin

 

[Mitchell_Broncos]

Jake Turpin

We should sign him heard he’s a really fast and quality hooker!

 

[BroncosFever]

Wouldn't lose a prop for a SR, throw Hass's money at Tapine.

I would, I even think Flegler is on too much.

Props are easy to replace, 80 minute rep quality second rowers, not so much. We've had Jordan Riki for the past couple of seasons and he's wildly inconsistent, he hasn't really turned into that damaging ball runner we need him to be either.
