NEWS Preseason Trial: Broncos 44 def Wynnum 12

 

[theshed]

not a bad position for us to be in.

He'll keep the pressure on the first string guys. at least until he gets a new manager

He’s already asked for a release

I guess I see it as nothing flashy, but he's doing his job. Some good tackles, good positioning and decoy runs. idk, I just noticed him in that first stanza and was impressed with his work.

Campagnolo(sp?) has been good, albeit with fresh legs. Te Kura is a freakishly tall dude, pretty unimpressed with his first 1/3 but he was better in the second.

Agree with the last line only.

Just doing your job is great in the nrl or even qld cup if you do it consistently, but to be an nrl option you should be standing out in this game....

I've though campagnolo has been shocking. 3 or 4 shocking, at the boot laces, passes, and taken the wrong option a couple of times...

He’s already asked for a release

Yes and I'm sure there were no suggestions of doubling a salary by the dolphins that prompted the request

 

[Broncapz]

I've seen enough.

The premiership window is now open.

 

[BroncsFan]

16 been solid as well

 

[theshed]

Smoothey is a better hooker than Walters. I’m not sorry

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Kev is gonna be under a heap of pressure real fast if he leaves Smoothy in the shadows while Boy Wonder struggles in the ruck

 

[BroncsFan]

Full of energy but looks almost ineffective

I've liked his quick feet around the middle of the field.

He looks that smaller mobile middle forward that is required in the NRL nowadays. Reminding me a bit of Kobe

I've also liked his passing game when he puts that footwork on to get outside the middle defenders.

 

[ZTop]

Mosby

 

[Foordy]

I've been really impressed with Smoothy too ...

but i do lol, that the things being said about him in this trial are the same type of things BHQ said about Billy in the same trial last year

 

[McHunt]

Smoothey is a better hooker than Walters. I’m not sorry

That's not a huge compliment.

 

[theshed]

That's not a huge compliment.

wasnt intended as one

 

[McHunt]

Kev is gonna be under a heap of pressure real fast if he leaves Smoothy in the shadows while Boy Wonder struggles in the ruck

Billy is first player picked. Paix is the one who's under threat.

 

[Medic]

The youtube chat for the game is bloody toxic.

 

[GCBRONCO]

Yeah that 50 doesn't look likely

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Man we are flush with some quality goalkickers right now

 

[tommy]

By 1910’s own word if smoothly plays well in trials he gets promotedto top 30. Very curious to see what happens.

 

[BroncsFan]

So what is our development deal situation??

Instead of giving Sailor a top 30 can he just get a development deal?? Pretty sure we did that with TMM last year.

Rules last year meant they could play whenever from Rd 11 onwards... or if we run out of specialists for the position.

Our only legit fullback at the moment is Reece with other guys having to move from other positions to play the role.

I can see only two on Development Deals in Smoothy and Josh Rogers... can't we have like 6??
