Way ahead of every other coach in the game.

Playing rugby league was Kevin's strong suit not mathematics. At least we won't go over the salary cap if he's involved.

 

[Super Freak]

This would be a good move as he could show the young blokes how to run hard.

I just want him to show our halves how to throw a bullet cut out pass.

Fans: Hoping to hear signings of Staggs / Coates / Reynolds / Capewell / anyone half decent and not a dinosaur

Broncos: Let's sign Hunt.

Have gate takings dropped this year? Knowing the club they probably just signed him for his name to get a few more idiots to buy tickets this season.

 

[Bongo]

He did ok in ISC. He wasn't a standout or anything like that but you can see his leadership had a big effect on them.

His defense at 6, his kicking and leadership will be big improvements

 

[Bongo]

Will the NRL actually register a contract for him?? Given his couple of indiscretions while in the inferior codes.

Yes. Historical now. Also he can show a long period of rehab and sobriety

"Disgraced former NRL star....."

Was that the coke bust? He wasn't even playing in the NRL when that happened was he?

The toilet tryst?

 

[Mister Wright]

If he only does one thing and that is to show Isaako how to be a gun fullback. This signing is worth every cent.

Exactly. If he can just show some leadership and teach a bit of footy IQ to the backline, he'll be worth every penny. Hunt was one of the best ever Broncos, he has something to offer this team.

Isaako has the making of being a very, very good fullback. He is reliable under the high ball, can hit a hole & is not terrible in defence.

He obviously needs to work on his running game - don’t go sideways, run hard back at the line and develop his passing skills. If he gets some sort of short kicking game that is a bonus.

 

[Rico]

Tonight's game is made for his mindset - shame it couldn't be a return in a few hours. Would be nice to clap him from the stands. He could teach guys in the mid week, small crowd with mental fragility to really dig in.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

I think this move is the strongest hint of all that Kev has little confidence that Milford will ever make it back into the top 17. He has been spinning bullshit with the media since the day he took the job, and I doubt his comments earlier in the week about Milford returning are any different.

I can tell you approx 50% of the NRL gets on it. Have spent many a bucks, birthdays and weekend celebrations at the casino, and there are plenty of snow plows. Ive even seen one of the major TV journos/hosts living it up.

 

[McHunt]

The usually rock solid source of all things Broncos has reeled in his previous statement on Hunt being available next week to one more in line with the NRL guidelines as mentioned by other posters such as @1910 . Unless he's brought into the 30 or the NRL waves its magic wand, he has to stay in a holding pattern until Round 11. Let's hope he doesn't get injured at training.

Souths Logan CEO Jim McClelland:

“The Broncos have asked me if it would be OK for Karmichael to go in there and do some training and then see what unfolds from there. I spoke to the Broncos last week when they were in Sydney. I spoke to Karmichael the other day and he said he will drop in to the Broncos from Monday. Karmichael has gone into the Broncos a few times this year to help mentor the young players. He has a special talent with young men, the Broncos have realised that and believe he can help their younger players. It would be a great story. I remember Karmichael making his debut for the Broncos at the age of 17 so it would be incredible for him to be back there at age 34.”
