OFFICIAL Broncos Sourced Player Movement and Confirmed Signings - Locked

[winslow_wong]

Surely we are in a prime position to getting either sua or Allan if not both right??

Very good operator and keeps a low profile. Questionable decision on the gender reveal thing for me. He's moved up the chain of command and is now a leader at the club.

'Questionable' would be easily the most polite way of spinning the correct description of that farce that I've seen so far.

In the worst season in our history, the fact that this still ranks as one of the absolute lowlights for many fans speaks volumes about just how poor and inexcusable an error in judgement that was.

2 most notable accomplishments seem to be:

- Brokered a deal to get Fifita back from
Bali so he could not put in during the season and then fly the coup (yes, I understand hindsight is 20/20), and;
- Sanctioned the Kayla and Darius party to celebrate the success that was season 2020.

But hey; hopefully I’m just not in the know and he’s a superstar.

You wouldn't find a list of accomplishments for any football manager anywhere really. Is everyone on time, dressed the same, at the bus, at the airport, make the flight, gear all ready, dressing room ready- they do a 1000 little things that if they're not done well your team goes to hell.

They're RIngo, not Paul or John.

Ex SAS, surely he's got some knowledge on certain aspects needed on the field .

Not to be funny, but isn’t our club already in hell? How much worse could it get?

I understand he’s not responsible for our on field performance, but perhaps he’s not doing those 1000 little things very well either - would that be surprising given the rot everywhere else at the club?

More worryingly though, if he has a lot of power as you mentioned, is this a good or bad thing?

Let’s hope so!

I have major concerns in light of recent events about literally anyone at the Broncos doing their jobs as well as possible at the moment, but I think when it gets to the stage that we're finger pointing at the Team Manager for our shitty results then we've probably gone just a little bit too far.

I did not know this, that’s good enough for me right there.

If he is a glorified secretary, why does he have so much power? If he makes a decision like the gender reveal, how does he still have a job?

Not sure I follow you sorry? Indeed, I did say he’s not responsible for our on-field performance.

My concern is that if he is “all powerful now” as 1910 has said, is he equipped be. The last thing the club needs is another person with NFI wielding all the power.

Served in Iraq and Afghanistan, maybe he should do some training with the team for pre season

That's not what he is at all, good football manager is worth gold. You ever heard anyone say Tosser was just a secretary? Queensland has had three in forty years because stability in the role is important.

Good ones are all about the players, and do anything they can so the player just worries about Sunday afternoon.

He worked up from Welfare to football manager, it wasn't supposed to be a slight on him to say he's powerful but he is now.

Great analogy.

Someone asked who he was a few months back in relation to the gender reveal.

Adam Walsh- football manager.

I can't believer former SAS would even know what a gender reveal is let alone be involved.

I might have brushed shoulders with him in Afghan I wouldn’t know but as they don’t roll around with name tags on their cams.

Sure but that gender reveal was such a bad judgment call, it is hard to say it benefitted the players either, look how much backlash they got, rightly or wrongly. And more to that, given there seem to be some pretty big rifts in the playing groups to the point some of them barely talk to each other, is he really managing them well? No I am not saying it is all his fault, I am asking is he really doing that great a job?

You SAS?

**** no, infantry. I’m two pegs down
