Broncos pull out of deal for Greg Inglis

Brisbane have pulled out of negotiations for NRL superstar Greg Inglis who is now almost certain to remain with Melbourne.

Inglis' manager Allan Gainey contacted the Broncos' general manager of football operations Andrew Gee today to inform him the offer made to the Queensland and Australian centre earlier in day was not enough to get him to Brisbane.

Have you missed the previous two pages dedicated to this fact?

LOLZ.

The way they worded it is very interesting though...
"the offer made to the Queensland and Australian centre earlier in day was not enough to get him to Brisbane".

That doesn't necessarily mean it wasn't enough for Inglis, but not enough for the Storm to release Inglis...interesting indeed!

And yes, it was mentioned similarly about 2 pages ago. But LOLZ. I love the conspiracy nature of it!

If I was a betting man I would be putting money on Inglise living at his house in Paddington next year with his missus.

Sorry, I didn't see the post.

Remember the Broncos were out of the running for Hannant. (hope that wasn't posted earlier)

I'd say 2012 he will be playing for the Broncos.

Re: Greg Inglis walks away from...

Who really cares now......

I was excited about it but like most people have said Inglis isnt worth risking the young talent we have atm. 5,6,7 years of hard work thrown away to get one player. I dont think so.

Good on the Broncos for not buckling under the pressure. Lets back our young talent and get on with the job!!!!

PS i still would take Inglis if he wanted to come though [icon_wink

http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,865 ... 66,00.html - Apparently Broncos offered $400k and it wasn't enough..

Re: Greg Inglis walks away from...

But it was a short negotiation, with Brisbane tabling its best offer, thought to be in excess of $400,000, and Inglis' management turning it down.

"As far as we are concerned the door is closed there now," Broncos football operations manager Andrew Gee said.

"We were led to believe Greg had a genuine interest in coming to our club and moving to Brisbane. His management company approached us to let us know that Melbourne had reluctantly agreed to release him if we could do a deal.

"We gave it our best shot, but it apparently wasn't enough, so we will move on. Essentially that's it for us now.

"Our focus was always on tying up our young blokes, which we have done.

"We left the door ajar if a blue-chip player like an Inglis came along. But at the end of the day you want players to come to your club for the right reasons not because you have the most money."

So we have 400k+ spare. What to buy?????

Re: Greg Inglis walks away from...

So we know we have 400k spare in the cap. Andrew Gee said they will leave the door open for a "blue chip" player but have secured all our young talent. So who else could we be looking at??

The answer is nobody. Yet. It's basically a way for the Broncos to say "oh, hi player managers. We have $400K to spend next year and beyond on a top quality player...got someone you want to pitch to us?".

Re: Greg Inglis walks away from...

Andrew Gee doesnt sound happy. "we were LED to believe". Good choice of words

Re: Greg Inglis walks away from...
