Is Hannant an accountant or agent? If not, why would he be asked and why would he answer? How the heck would he know?

Isn't Hannant his own manager? I know he was a couple years ago so he would know a fair bit on how to negotiate and opportunities available to the player. Maybe he was trying to get a player under him as a client? Who knows what the go is, all I know is that whatever the situation, we better buy some props quickly cos I don't rate any of the ones coming through other than Mcguire, who is really a second rower playing front row too.

You may be confused with Carey Porker, who doesn't go through a manager.

I noticed they promoted kodi to qcup last week. I wonder if hooks giving him a couple of weeks before bringing him to Nrl?
Everyone I've spoken to close to the broncos about Hoffman say "he will come good, he's good at play making he just hasn't clicked yet" hopefully the time frame has closed on that line of thinking.

i would like to see hook go the way of rick stone. I don't think he should be punted, but he was promoted too soon. Bring kevvy in as head coach, hook as 2IC & Bennett as the coaching director. It's a solid team and covers all bases. I think Walters could most definitely be the "Boof" we need.

Except Boof didn't have Arthur as 2IC, sacking the head coach and making him assistant makes no sense.

Funny I have been saying that about Reed plus the fact he cannot tackle - is as slow as my grandmother - god bless her soul as she has been dead for 30 years - trips over worms in the ground when he runs - has terrible hands - alah dropped ball over the try line - for the last 12 month but used to cop a pounding from most on here about it

I'm right there with you, FI. I remember last year as well airing concerns about Reed and getting hammered. I'm a Reed fan but he is struggling for form and has been for quite some time. It's probably one of the most pleasing signs about our current run of form - the Reed circle jerk seems to be over on here.

Re: [Official] - Milford signs with Broncos

Glad it's all finally sorted and can't wait for milford to play for the Broncos.

Rumours are Griffin is hoping to coach the attack out of him, so he can use him as a one out hit up machine, to cover for Kennedy. Kennedy's playmaking skills will then be developed by the combined abilities of Griffin and Kearney to cover our long term 5/8 issue...

At this stage even if he was to do that, I think he would still be a more effective forward then Kennedy.

Come on guys, Griffin isn't that stupid to play Milford in the front row. That is just ridiculous. It's obvious he will use him as Fensom-like tackling machine or a minute-less bench player.

I want him gone as much as everybody else ... it just seems that even when we get good news people find a way to bag Griffin.

Bottom line is the Sloth Griffin has a deplorable winning percentage as a coach full stop. I think it is in the realm of sub 40%. Hell if any of my staff performed at 40% they would be fired no questions asked. I have never seen anyone accept failure as well as Sloth Griffin does. Just head scratching.
