Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2025

[Sproj]

Horsbrough for Hetherington would be great. We need a nut.

 

[Sproj]

Rumours swirling in Sydney that a Brisbane player is going to Canberra?

Anasta's Greek cousin no doubt involved.

Yeah several Sydney clubs, including us at the Bunnies, are interested in getting Hetherington, but some members have heard about this possible Canberra deal/swap. I would love to have him at the Bunnies though.

In fairness, your team is rubbish going in to 2025, so you guys would be happy to take whoever you can get.

Take Oatesy, treat him well because we sure the heck aren't.

 

[Foordy]

Big rumours swirling in Sydney he will be a straight swap with the redheaded lunatic from Canberra.

I know you're a troll, so probably won't happen.

but that would be a great swap for us. assuming we don't have to pay horse the 550k a year he is on now

 

[Big Del]

He was a decent step in the right direction.

Ryan James has left the chat ...

Oatsey should get himself a specialist sprint coach and spend the off season trying to find a few mtrs of speed. I'd love to see him turn back the clock.
Either that or turn himself into a genuine backrower.

He tried extra training and broke down ...

Eh? Doesn't mean it will happen again

The issue is that none of them play consistent first grade

Unfortunately, I don't expect our R&R team would do that, they don't seem to know what they are doing at the best of times, let alone play hardball with a Stuart led Raiders.

Bob Bax, one of leagues greatest coaches, often said to win a grand final you need a kicker and a lunatic. He won plenty at Norths Devils.

In all seriousness. I watched the game live on the weekend, Te Kura looks too big and immobile. Not sure if he's just underdone because of his injury this year. Boy we looked way too big as a whole in the middle on the weekend. Wilison is a big body but definitely moves better laterally. Im not particular hopeful in what Te Kura will be adding to our team in its current iteration. .we need more aggression and mobilty in the middle.

Too big and immobile? If you watched the game live you would see that he came on 24 points down while broncos had the ball a grand total of 5 times in the 22 minutes he was on the field… did he look immobile against Melbourne?

Yes. That is my opinion. I was at the game. He looked a big body with a lock mobility. There can be role for a big body, but in our current pack?

So we're sacking BTK now as well ??... @Sproj add him to the list

Yep.
- Haas gone - too much money, doesn’t try hard enough, faking injuries
- Riki gone - terrible season, useless, not loyal
- Piakura gone - made of glass, turnstile in defense, no good
- Herherington gone - wants to start, need to keep him, mobile forwards are the way of the future
- Walters gone - Kev’s kid so nuff said
- Baker gone - powderpuff, send him back to Sydney
- Carrigan warned but can stay - telling players what to do, they may not like it so on notice
- Te Kura gone - not mobile enough, too big
- Hunt gone -.totally forgot he was at the club but he’s out too
- Gosiewski gone - a Kevvie signing apparently so he’s gone
- Jensen gone - doesn’t play like a million dollar a year forward so he’s out

Flegs bung shoulder and all, Capewell and Palasia back, Horsbrough in, Taupau to be retained and we turn it all around in the forward pack. Simples.
