Anthony Seibold has confirmed the Broncos would consider making off-contract Cameron Smith an offer to finish his career at the Broncos in the wake of losing David Fifita to the Titans.
Fifita’s exit will free up around $2.5 million that had been put aside for him over the next three years but Seibold said that did not mean the club had a "bucket load of money" at its disposal.
Smith wanted to be a Bronco as a youth and with Wests Tigers rake Harry Grant set to return to the Storm next year the Brisbane coach is keeping all options open as the club looks to the future in the midst of what has been a dire season.
Seibold, who worked with Smith as an assistant coach at the Storm and with the Maroons, made a poignant response when asked whether the Broncos would consider a one year-offer for the 37-year-old Storm maestro.
"Of course, it is something we would consider but it is a really long bow. Would he add something to us? Could he add something to us? Of course he could," Seibold said.
The actual plausibility of the move aside, this dickhead is literally taking recruitment ideas straight from the media. THIS is the person who the board gave 5 years to??
