Josh Hoffman signs 3 year deal with Titans

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

Quality finishers on the wing is what we need.

We have centres, we have fullbacks, we have halves, but we don't have any quality finishers on the wing.

Exactly ... If we could have Boyd and Hoffman as our wingers to go with Hodges and Copley as our centers and Hunt and Milford in the halves. Then we could use Barba, K. Nikorima, or Kahu at fullback ...

And we would have the most dangerous back line in the comp

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

I'm going to say something and I fully expect to be crucified for it ... but ...

I hope Hoffman can't find a club that wants him as a fullback.

I hope he is forced to stay with us and and play wing, where he dominated for most of the 2013 season.

I hope he has a chat with Yow Yeh and realizes that wing is not a second class position, but rather a vital position to finish off backline moves and score us points.

I hope he comes to enjoy playing wing.

I hope he realizes that playing wing for the Brisbane Broncos and getting paid well to do it is better than what most people have to do for a living ...

OK people, those are my thoughts, flame away.

Nah mate you won't get crucified for that mate, well balanced perspective IMO(which is what I think the majority of the forum likes to see). Yow Yeh could be a great influence for him, but I reckon you could also get someone like Michael Hancock to have a chat with him, you won't find many players in the clubs history prepared to make the necessary sacrifices and changes to his game for the best interests of the clubs and his own.

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

Thing is his ego might implode if no one gives him a guaranteed offer to play fullback.

This may or may not be a good thing.

No flaming here, except to say I like your post and that would be a flaming good outcome :)

Turned down by NZ National team. Got dropped!

Bizarre that the Kiwi's still managed to find a spot for Beale tho.

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

Beale has been pretty damn good in the centres for the Drags.

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

I keep reading articles that clubs are trying to sign Hoffman to play CENTRE ... The Titans the latest club to apparently target him. I have no doubt this is to sell papers, because unless the money is huge, Hoffman won't leave us unless he is guaranteed fullback.

heres the comedy piece if anyone's interested:

http://www.couriermail.com.au/sport...broncos-fullback/story-fnp0lyn6-1227084156566

this was the funniest part of the article:

Should the Raiders secure Stewart at fullback, the club could still chase Hoffman as a five-eighth option

If Ricky signs Hoffman to play 5/8 then he is even stupider than Griffin ... at least when Griffin did it it hadn't been tried before ... if sticky does it, he will be doing something that has not only be tried before, but was found to be a complete disaster

AND, Hook only had one genuine half on the books.

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

I hope Hoffman sticks around for the Boyd announcement, reality will set in that no club wants him to play fullback.

He'll be playing for the Mounties in no time if he goes to play 5/8 in Canberra.

 

[Alec]

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

As far as fullback goes, his best shot is probably at the Raiders. They might not be getting Austin, and Wighton isn't exactly settled there yet.

If he wants to play in the halves, he should check out ESL...or the Raiders, I guess Ricky could play him there too.

 

[Foordy]

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

i don't think he wants to play half ... that article also says he is determined to play fullback ...

its just the media spinning shit to sell papers yet again

Nice find Johnno ,appreciate the link! Look, i'm not 100% sure what the likelihood of the following happening is, but , i have heard that Josh is planning to use tonites celebrations to make the announcement that he has had a change of mind and will now be staying with us next year and putting all he's efforts into cementing himself as the premiere winger in the game/world. It is believed Josh and Hook had a final and emotional heart to heart discussion before Anthony left he's/Waynes Red Hill office for the final time yesterday afternoon.

Perhaps 1910 could shed some light on this if he would care TO divulge his inside information?

Great work FIH. Have you been keeping an eye down at the fruit market, you never know who might turnip.

Re: Josh Hoffman to negotiate with other clubs

So, apparently Hoffman might be switching to Australia after being snubbed by the Kiwis...again.

He will have to be happy playing wing, because there is no way he will ever be fullback.

I think he would even be lucky just to play on the wing..
