Our new halfback should be

[pagey]

who the **** knows (and even if it does it will also give the Titans even more to throw at him and Elgey)

Hayne will be gone very shortly and the Titans don't have any other really big money players. the Titans have already stated that they want to build their team around Taylor and Elgey, they will throw the cheque book at both players ... it will cost us big money to get Taylor back

They will also spend big money to replace hayne and they will have other teams interested in both halves . I remember one Wayne Bennett saying the same about hunt and Milford.

Wouldn't say No to Tyrone Roberts either just quietly

You've gotta wonder how different the trajectory of the Broncos would've been if we decided to go all in on Norman as our play maker instead of Hunt back in 2013, we relegated Norman to playing Fullback, where he wasn't even remotely comfortable. From memory almost every Broncos fan was happy to see him leave because of how bad he was at Fullback defensively.

It took him a while to click in to gear at the Eels, but there's not really a question right now that he's a superior player to Hunt.

I don't think Norman could've reached the levels of 2015 Hunt, but he's just a far steadier and more reliable player that would've complimented Milford SO much better.

Or complimented hunt !

It was Norman's attack that irked everyone, Josh Hoffman levels of not passing.

That and after he signed elsewhere chasing coin he looked completely disinterested...
To me he'll always be a wanker who thinks he's a lot better than what he actually is.

I've seen some quality in Tyrone but only really in his running game... I've never seen him control a game.
Not saying he can't, just I haven't seen that side of him.

I think he is as good as he thinks he is. But his attitude just doesn't always align with his talent. He sits back to often in games. If he had hungry/competitive attitude similar to Thurston he would be at another level.

I see this in Milford aswell.

I think the Titans will be spending plenty on keeping there team also . And I beg to differ who gave him his shot , was it not Bennett that released him to play 1st grade.

He is more likely to think along the lines of "I had to leave the Broncos since they could give me a shot"

I'd be very surprised if Hayne stays

Thats why I said replace

Hayne will go to French rugby to pursue the European dream and plus I've heard they aren't strict on training.

Too much rock and not enough diamond.

Wallace wasn't anything special, but he didn't have to be. The Broncos just needed a consistent playmaker and Wallace fit that bill until mid-way through 2012. After that he simply had nothing to offer the club and it's no surprise that he's had to transition into another role to find success.



You've got to factor in value. Norman accepted a $1.5 million offer at a time where he couldn't play what was infront of him. Ben Hunt accepted a lower offer, guided one of the worst Broncos outfits to a finals series. He received a well deserved raise the following year, reportedly still not the same amount of money as Norman and was one of the best halves in the competition. Even in 2016, a year he was heavily criticised, his KPIs were among the best in the competition. Meanwhile Norman was busy serving a suspension for his own stupidity.

He may turn out to be a better player moving forward, but he's shown nothing to suggest the Broncos made the wrong call.

Big agreeance for this post.. 100%%%!!!!
