Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2024

Badel said on Sportsday (SEN) last night that we are looking for a back up edge Backrower and have made some initial inquiries into Zac Hosking

Panthers want money for their cap this year. Wouldn't be hard to beat the raiders offer.
 
Regarding salary cap rorting, that's what the Sharks did, they paid a grounds keeper that didn't exist. That money was then dispersed to players.
 
Raiders offering a long term deal. Dont think the club will want to be offering that considering we have our own cap squeeze for 2025.
Yea but we can offer him a premiership (Raiders can't match that).

Agreed, his stocks/cost have increased the past couple years and is probably exceeding what we can afford/offer.

He is the right type of player, but unfortunately not the right price.
But we've got "culture" now. We can sign whoever we want!
 
He might not be good value for us at his new market rate.

I disagree. He can be a good ball runner but still has errors. Raiders are not going to be at the top of the comp anytime soon. If we have the cap space, it shouldn't be a hard sell.

Luai at the tigers will be firming by the day. Richo is a hard man, but fair and correct. I remember meetings with him where every second word was brutal - but he knows how to operate a football club. Penrith want to keep Luai, Hosking could be the cap relief they need to counter Tigers. Hosking will want to secure his future and release before the year.

Its a prime position for a potentially smart play if he can refine his game. Raiders V Broncos is a no brainer, even with 100-150k salary difference. The weird double irony is that Penrith can double down and lose on both.
