Still editing that when you replied! It's cobbled together from a couple of interviews. Angle is that Ezra is a genuine leading contender to partner Reynolds in week one.

Badel's "five things we learned" were:

1. Ezra was unearthed as the new playmaking star. " his fusion of speed, skill and sublime hands and would not look out of place in the NRL"

2. Jordan is a contender for wing.

3. Flegs looked a class above the rest.

4. Deine Mariner is a superstar in the making. Won't start the season.

5. Broncos have impressive depth. Top 8 contenders.

I get a feeling this will be a breakout year for flegler. People forget he is still only 22, very young for a forward. He will benefit from james and I don't think he coped well with the expectations thrown on him and trying to keep up with haas. He always seemed intent on making an immediate impact, which often backfired. He just needs to run hard and make his tackles for a bit when he comes on before trying to be the intimidator.

I also reckon Walters is seeing this aswell and may be why he wants to back flegler for the starting prop spot over Hetherington for the lock role with carrigan to prop...

"Unearthed"

Remember when someone asked why doesn't Badel write about Mam yet and I said until he is close to NRL Badel won't know a single thing about him- you argued no Badel is a man of the people at MM games every week.

I would say top 8 chances are pretty safe assuming we aren’t disadvantaged by things that are out of our control.

are you joking about that last part or is that genuinely what he said.

 

[McHunt]

So basically what everyone with eyes could tell you.

Unless they didn't watch the game. Which is most people.

No I don't. I would never have said that. Prior to the Dolphins, Badel only covered the Broncos, and to a lesser extent the Titans and occasionally the feeder clubs - but only in the context of the Broncos. Andrew Dawson covers the kiddy grades. The ISC is fairly neglected. Chris Honnery, maybe.

You must have me confused with someone else.

 

[Blindside Bronco]

you guys have forgotten this old mans career position is right wing, im gonna hold it for a majority of 22 if fit

Meady and Staggs combo.

 

[kman]

No comment on Gamble hey

Walter's may have really noticed that horrible kick he put in when we were on the front foot that lead to their only try.

 

[Sproj]

I'd argue that most people includes Badel. I really wish our forum could get royalties.

 

[Dazza 92]

Wow, what a jump for Mam in 12 months.

In serious contention for the 6-spot according to his coach!

Time will tell, i reckon NRL experience will win out here in the end, we are desperate to start well this season.

But having Ezra breathing down the incumbants neck cant be a bad thing?

If it's any consolation, we do have a couple of drama queens.

Yeah i doubt he'll start the year as 5/8th but i would put money on him finishing the year as 1st choice. He just needs to show he can handle the pressure situations against strong competition, making the correct decisions. Both Kelly and Gamble have done so. He definitely is exciting though when i think of this club's season.

 

[BroncosFever]

I reckon he will go with Gamble, just because he's a bigger body and can make his tackles consistently against larger men. Seems to be how coaches prefer to build into their season, win ugly and then focus on combinations and all that as the season goes on.

Gamble wasn't bad by any stretch for us last season, I would argue he was the one player who gave us hope (outside of the signings).

 

[Morepudding]

I really liked Billy at 9. I don’t know why we keep persisting with Turpin. I’d drop him all together and run Billy with Paix on the bench.

He's six this week.

 

[Jedhead]

He's six this week.

Really? He looks well into his twenties.

Thanks dad.

 

[WASSHHH]

Really? He looks well into his twenties.

I don’t know why, but this sort of shit just makes me LOL.

Probably because I’m immature, but kudos to you!
