“You’ve got Greg Inglis coming back and Billy Slater and Darius Boyd. There’s not going to be a lot of room for a lot of wingers because we’re pretty well-equipped there.

QLD my be well equipped in the outside backs ... but The Broncos aren't and they pay his salary ... they need to do whats best for the club.

“Wing has never been his position,” said Miles.

He has done pretty bloody well in a position "that has never been his" he finds ways to get the ball over the line that may "specialist" wingers can't

And Gene has no ulterior motive or bias here.

Can't see him playing Origin this year with this current attitude.

 

[Battler]

Who gives a shit about Origin? I want the Broncos to win a prem first and foremost.

I don't see a problem with him having ambitions. In any case hasn't he earnt a shot to prove himself?

My edit button is gone? So thought I'd just add that if one of our backs goes down with an injury mid-match he's a handy back-up to have if we have to shuffle the backline

 

[Alec]

He'd need to have a huge start to the season to be in line for Origin IMO. Gunster will most likely be there.

 

[Kyall]

He could easily take Wallace or Hess spots.

Hess maybe but we can’t afford to lose Wallace in the middle.

 

[Super Freak]

Considering Wallace is a prop, I doubt Oates will be taking his spot.

The way papa played last year you'd think he could be in the firing line

Grow up would ya, you only get one football career. The Brisbane Broncos is a business best believe they'll throw him to the curb if something better comes up and I expect Oates to aswell. He is doing what's best for himself and so he should... I mean the broncos do it all the time, so why can't the players.

That's you as a fan, now what about Oates as a football player that only gets one career?

Angry pills?

 

[Taylor1921]

I literally cannot get over this damn forum, it's like you want our players to not be ambitious and be the best they possibly can. Grown men or spoilt little boys?

Nah g, just won my first Fortnite game. But than I get on here and read some of the shit people expect from talented athletes that deservingly want more.

All friends here mate. you don’t want to get accused of being a manly fan. The boys on here are hungry....for premierships. It’s a broncos forum so for most of us, origin is a nice to have.
