Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2025

[Hoshsie]

I remember it was framed as a done deal in 2023 so still not overly confident it will happen

 

[Bucking Beads]

The Hunt redemption story will be THE go-to narrative of next season if we're looking like making top 4

I need this arc injected into my veins

 

[Super Freak]

I just want an excuse to update the old Hunt highlight reel.

 

[theshed]

I don’t know why people are talking like if Hunt signs, Ezra just pushes him out of the halves once he becomes available.

If Hunt and Reynolds are working well, Ezra can learn to be a bench utility imo

Nah.

1. Walsh
6. Mam
7. Reynolds
9. Hunt

Is just wayyyy too spicy to pass up.

Injecting a 2023 Ezra into a tiring team to just play on the ball in tandem with Walsh would be fun to watch

I agree, I think Maguire will make Ezra earn his way back in and he really should have to. He needs to understand this is a privilege to play NRL for the Broncos, not a right.

I don't see how you justify that amount of money sitting on the bench.

Plus, I'm not sold on Hunt/Reyno working. They're both players that want to be calling the shots. I think for balance, we would be much better off with Ezra/Reyno in the halves and Hunt at 9.

 

[Bull Shark]

Edit : I just cursed out the Australian cricket team for the 184th time in the wrong thread..

I’ve gotta post something, so.. ‘geez I hope we get Hen Bunt !’

carry on..

 

[Dexter]

If we are 9 and 3 or better when Ezra is available (assuming 12 weeks ) it will make it very hard to change anything.
Agree having 750k sitting in Qcup or on the bench isn't desirable.

He clearly hasn't appreciated his privilege, so hopefully short term pain for long term gain.

I could see them working, Hunt way more off the cuff, Reyno more structured

 

[BroncosFever]

I seen Brandon Smith is looking for a new home. If we could offload some players and Ben Hunt doesn't want to come back, then Smith would be a handy pick-up.

He's an impact bench forward who can play from dummy half, I am yet to be convinced he's anything else.

Probably because between them there's zero running threat.

I personally don't expect Madge to make it easy for Mam to get back in the team once his suspension ends (especially if our halves are preforming and we're winning)

barring injury or suspension I expect he come back through the QLD cup. could take him a while to get back in the side ... of course if we're struggling, then all bets will be off

quick question ... have you seen Ben Hunt play?

he has a strong running game. arguably his best attribute

I wouldn’t worry too much about it, between Mam’s suspension & Reyno’s body breaking down there’s a good chance it doesn’t even become an issue.

I definitely agree there. He'll be a great 5/8 to support Reynolds for sure.
