At least Ben has plenty of time to think about playing for the Broncos next year.

Now we just need to win some games by playing interesting footy (with Griffin? I know...) to make it even more attractive for him..

The only thing I don't like about us chasing Milford is that it means we're likely not chasing DCE. DCE MUST be first pick, FFS..

Not sure how or why we'd be chasing Cherry Evans atm ... He's under contract next year and doesn't have extenuating circumstances like Barba ...

Milford would be a great signing I love watching this kid play and he is a star in the making.

Didn't manly **** up one of his 3rd party deals or something so he can sign elsewhere if he wants?

I think now Barba is "injured indefinitely", the signing will be official by next week. My sources said last week it was a done deal as far as ben was concerned. I am suspicious about timing of this injury too. I will be asking them about it.


.....tomorrow.

What if we sign both Barba and Milford? Who plays where? Both are pretty much the exact same type of player, only Milford is smaller.

I think Milford has a better passing and kicking game, so Barba fullback, Milford halfback, Hunt 5/8

Yea, I read someone mention a big signing in tomorrows paper in the other thread after I posted this. Which makes me even more confident but in saying that I don't recall that poster ever mentioning anythign about Barba so I'm uncertain.

I've heard that the Broncos will announce the signature of a young spine player tomorrow who is being released by his club on compassionate grounds....

Source is reliable but also prone to pranks, Alex to confirm..

"Young spine player" though correct is an odd way to describe Barba. Tomorrow will be definitely be interesting.

"Young spine player" isn't how I'd typically describe Barba. Tomorrow will be definitely be interesting.
Well it could be Milford, DCE or Barba. Raiders would be oh so stupid to let Milford go though, especially if it's for next year. There's no way the club will announce something like Milford signing for 2015 because he'll have all the way till round 13 next year to change his mind, too risky.

Maybe they want to announce it early to shut us fans up
