Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

If he’s told he will likely spend the next 2 seasons playing NSW Cup if he stays with us, it would then be in his best interests to look at heading to the UK Super League where he’d be one of the best wingers in the competition and would likely earn the wage we are currently paying him for the next 4 seasons.

No English club would pay him $500k….

Nofo has a deal for next year, 2024 and the year after, 2025🤦🏻

That's atrocious.

Offer him a contract for 26 and 27 at 200K then ask him to average it out at around 375k if all reports are correct and tell him that Lee will drive him to training once a week or ask someone to take him for free for next as long you pick up all of 25
 
I reckon Benji is plotting an outside back off contract next year who is flying under the media’s radar due to injury, Taylan May.

Could depend on what Penrith’s salary cap position is for ‘25 given Turuva off contract & young gun McLean coming through & what Luai does.

Just my thoughts.

We should sign Savage, Tracey and Curran.
Would freshen up and strengthen our squad to a top 8 chance if everyone stays fit.
And if they wanna also nab Olakau’ate and Willison that would be ok too.
Then ill wake up

Savage doesn’t take training seriously (hence not making the raiders team) and Curran would just be worse then twal and block a spot for one of our juniors

Whatever else we might think of the club's prospects it's encouraging that the players we actually want to keep seem to be bought in and aren't trying to leave. Koroisau, Bula and now Utoikamanu - you could make a case that they are literally the only three players on our 2023 roster that other clubs would actually covet.

See how they react to a third straight spoon.

Which is correct, okay some interest around Twal but I think that's as a second tier player.

the surprise is:

Isaiah Papali'i​

and John Bateman.

These two should be gun and desirable players. With both their form is way lower then past performance. Bateman we know it was almost a mid season transfer so lets see what a good preseason does.

Broncos have developed players with elite attributes, both physical & skill, and have taken those attributes (speed, strength, power, cardio, ball skills) to new levels. Walsh, Cobbo, Staggs, Fansworth, Mam, Haas, Riki, Flegler & Carrigan provide an amazing combination of attributes. With shrewd recruitment in Reynolds & Capewell, they have rocketed up the ladder the past 4 seasons.

We are not going to replicate that by purely recruitment. We need to develop the likes of Laulilii brothers, Faagutu, Galvin, Mason, Large brothers, Makasini, Willett and take the likes of Stef, Pole, Matamua, Fainu brothers, Blore, T'oa & Bula to whole new levels to get us anywhere near the top 4.

Morris is a good man to have on board to help Benji & Api with this.

I agree with this. The first thing this club needs to come close to replicating what the broncos have done is have stability. No bullshit five year plans that last a year. Pick a direction and stick to it, and shut up in the media.
