Same genius who binned Gillett and did the 6 again controvosy in the canberra/chooks final. Easily for me 3 of the worst refereering mistakes I can recall, same freaking dude......
As much as Braith is a bit of a knob, he wasn’t wrong.
Penalised for getting punched in the head. Fucking daft.

It's the only think that really frsutrates me with Walters. You can't trust a word that comes from his mouth.Edited clips of the press conference here. Doesn't include the last paragraph. Maybe it was taken out of context. Pretty much discount anything Walters says anyway:
Walters backs comeback kid Kelly to ignite Broncos
Broncos coach Kevin Walters is confident Albert Kelly can spark Brisbane back into winning form seven years after he last played in the NRLwww.nrl.com

I don't believe this for a second. Isaako is freaking out with all the Hynes talk and TPJ has form, too much form to think otherwise. Our players aren't focused on being Broncos when they do shit like this and that is why their contracts should be torn up instead of defending their actions. I'm over the club being such pushovers. Meanwhile Walsh is tearing a team apart doing things nobody else at the club can do. What did we get from that trade again?

Like, to hang out or something? He might take that offer when he's earning 150k next year.

As Broncos fans, which most of us are, the crime is talking to other clubs when they should be focusing on the Broncos and their season. It's not fine and most Broncos fans are over it. Can't go a single week without one of our players being a distraction and not focusing on the club.
I agree with you but that’s not the NRL’s issue. They can’t do anything about dumb and selfish.

Love it.Maybe Broncos squeezing Isaako out early for a mid-season Hynes move?
Don't need his goal kicking
Don't need his Jekyll and Hyde performances

Good. He should be. Completely replaceable.
You are right. What else can you do? The Nov 1 rule organically stops it because who is going to meet with someone to discuss three years away and then wait until Nov 1 in two years to register a deal? You wouldn’t.
The problem is you can register a deal Nov 1 this year for both TPJ and Isaako for 2023.
If the Tigers are starting work on that for Nov then that’s fine but when they sign the deal and then start the I’m home sick, my mum is sad my dog died bullshit to go in 22 I get annoyed.

The clubs trawl the market for suitable players and the players try to find a good place to work. Everyone wants the same thing, to be happy and successful. We don't get angry when a club uses up a player and discards him so why are people upset? I mean, not one single one of us is naive about the reality. Everyone knows the score.
Personally, I hold two positions on things from a players perspective. Firstly, I have no skin in the game and it's not my business. The players don't owe me anything. It's just business. It's employment.
The second thing is our emotional investment. It's not the players responsibility to care about our feelings. As long as a player fulfils his part of the bargain we don't or shouldn't be upset. They sign a contract and do the best they can, that's the most we should expect. Where their future lays and the steps they take to secure it is entirely their business.
I couldn't care less about players chatting about their future, the only Important considerations are, is the player doing his best for us and what are we doing to secure the services of the players we want/need.

Laurie and Simpkin are both good but haven’t quite kicked on in first grade yet.
Blore also looked like a real gun last year but admittedly I haven’t watched him much since he returned form injury.
edit: they’re a fullback, hooker, and 2nd row

Probably the least relevant point here, but I liked the statement we put out. Always loved when the storm would put statements out like that to end media speculation. Clearly it was Donaghy behind that and he’s brought that here.

I don't know .. nor do I care .. who's talking to who or what they're talking about, I'm just sick of the pencil-pushing excuses for journos (particularly those within the hallowed walls of Fox Sports "News") sitting there with one hand in their crotch and the other scrolling their phones whilst dreaming up more crap to throw in our direction. This automatically spins up (or down, whichever) to the TV numpties to provide more padding for those endless hours of meaningless dross that precede and follow every freakin' game.
