Player Movements & Rumours 2010

I have to give kudos to the recruiting team, they seem to have switched back into top form with their choices as to who to let go, who to upgrade and who to sign.

Yep since Gee has taken over he's been fantastic, making all the right decisions. I really do like him, Cullen did so much stupid shit but Gee already looks 10x better at handling player contracts.

Apparently Kyle Stanley isn't happy at the Dragons and wants to come to the Broncos. He would be a great depth signing that could potentially turn out to be a great player for us in the future.

I much prefer who we have already. these kids are the real deal.

Worth a look if Inglis doesn't come here but would be happy to give our young blokes a go.

Can he play wing?

Winter certainly cant!!

Yea for sure. I was just saying he would be cheap, he wants to come here and he is a great talent so why not? I have a great deal of confidence in our current juniors but it wouldn't hurt to have one more, especially one who can play a variety of positions which would increase our depth even more. It would just add more competition for spots like the left centre spot if we don't sign GI which isn't exactly sewn up at all, or even the 5/8 spot which Lockyer will leave in a few years.

Lyn, How you know he wants to come to the Broncos? Did you read it in an article or insider info?

Someone on another forum said he had inside info. You could take it with a grain of salt but I thought it was worthy of posting on here.

Broncos snap up Jets young gun

AFTER idolising Brisbane Broncos superstar Justin Hodges for the past decade, Ipswich Jets young gun James Furminger could end up playing alongside him.

The Ipswich Jets winger and former Olympic swimming hopeful has signed with the Brisbane Broncos for 2011 after rejecting interest from the Gold Coast Titans.

Furminger, 18, has starred in the Jets Colts team this year, scoring five tries in one game and playing several matches in the Queensland Cup side.

But it was not until he played for south-east Queensland representative rugby league team the Kookaburras that his talent was finally noticed.

“After the game, a Broncos guy came up and spoke to me and it all snow-balled from there,” Furminger said.

“It's amazing to think I'll be at the club I've been a fan of all my life.

“My grandma is a huge Broncos fan so she was one of the first people I told and she was stoked for me.”

Furminger's rise through rugby league's ranks has been incredible.

Until this year the former Ipswich Grammar student had not played rugby league for several years.

If this kid idolises Hodges, he must run the 100 in about 40 seconds, and can't step off either knee.

 

[Black Philip]

Articles which involve the words "snap" and "Hodges" make me uncomfortable at the moment.

I agree, he should idolise Michaels!

Meanwhile, the Cowboys have continued their aggressive recruitment drive for next season, signing out-of-favour Broncos forward Ashton Sims.

That's a shame, I've always liked Ashton even if he's underperformed for most of his time here.
