Broncos Roster, Signings and Rumours Discussion 2026

Daily Tele reporting tonight Broncos have now decided against loaning Blake Mozer to a rival for 12 months. Mainly due to Walter's injury obviously.

You would think next year is a big season for this fella. Lots of hype, needs to start putting it together. He wouldn't be the first hooker to be very highly touted in the NRL but never really reach the heights expected.

We should loan Mozer to the Eels for 1 year lol
 
Blackhawks Mark Henry to the Broncos S & C in 26.

No doubt he made the Blackhawks stronger in 25. They improved in every area but winning finals but made finals for the first time since 21 and were top of the table for a lot of the season.

Rumour down here in Sydney that Brisbane this week have spoken to renowned sprint coach, Roger Fabri, about joining them for 2026 to be a specialist sprint and agility coach.

He has worked with some of the top players in the game so no doubt would be a big asset to work with Walsh, Mam and co.

He only works in Sydney and only does private coaching does not coach clubs anymore.
 
Is that our NRL squad full now? One more spot? I know Beni Allen has extended but not sure where he fits in.

Hoeter earns another year to end of 26. Great choice he’s going to be valuable for Kendall, Verhoeven, Coates and Innes.

Seems to be very good to have around the group.
On awards night they farewelled players leaving.
Hoeter and Jetski weren't there and they've resigned since. Baker also wasn't there does that mean he's next? 😒

I think it will come down to which Dev Deals from last year have been upgraded to a Top 30 deal.

At the moment I've got the equivalent replacements for the outs so far... I think we may still have some spots left?

Martin Taupau -> Ben Talty
Kobe Hetherington -> Aublix Tawha
Selwyn Cobbo -> Grant Anderson
Jock Madden -> Tom Duffy
Tyson Smoothy -> Buk??
Fletcher Baker -> ?? Semu??
Israel Leota -> ??

Verhoeven is T&T. If reports are to be believed our dev list is full (Semu, Bukowski, Francis, Horne, Scott, & Coates). Leaves one top 30 spot open.

That’s interesting. O know there was talk Verhoeven would come straight into top 30 because he is so highly rated.

Right you are.



T&T 2026
NRL/Dev - 2027/2028

Which seems right. Nio is one of the brightest prospects at the club, but I can't see him in the mix for the first half of 2026. What the T&T allows is for him to come in during the Origin period, which is where he's at with his development.
 
So if we've only got one spot left in the Top 30 does that mean Waqa was straight into the Top 30? (I kind of thought Semu was in the Top 30 sometime last year, but reports he's Dev Deal again)

Or am I just completely missing someone?

Some other notables... haven't named them all
- Jett Bryce
- Beni Allen
- Saxon Innes
 
For those in the know where do you group the young players in regards to outlook:

Eg.
1. Look like they will become top notch 1st graders already.
2. Will make it to 1st grade but unsure how theyll go oncw they make the jump
3. Could go either way (eg nrl vs qld cup is their level
4. Talented for their age group but will need things to go their way to make it to nrl

TBF he did say it’s a rumor, and realistically, if the price is right I doubt much would be absolutely off the table for most people in these sorts of roles.
 
@BroncsFan

Hayze Perham is on an NRL/Dev deal.

I haven't seen anything to suggest Waqa is on a full-time deal. I presume T&T and will link up with an affiliate.
