I must admit everytime i've seen Tumeth i haven't thought he had anything about him. He's small and doesnt look up to FG standard. Ontop of that he's a Moses client i would have flicked him first.

it will never change right?
They won back to back spoons … so they will win the spoon the next 10 years …?
We will both be here every day of those 10 years though God willing… arguing whether they will move on some contracted players during the offseason or not…
They say it’s the hope that kills ya… so better to have none …is that the strategy?

Does that mean we’ll be playing the Mr Whippy track instead of eye of the tiger at home games?

the club is going to need someone to be the backup fullback … so apparently it’s him for the next 2 years …
He had two bad injuries last year though … hope they have done their medicals ..

All three Broncos - Farnworth (now Dolphins), Deine Mariner and Kotoni Staggs imo are all better than Best. I believe we can develop a few youngsters who could fill the role

I didn’t say it would never change, but seriously, if we had had this conversation in 2013 and I told you it wouldn’t be till at least 2024 that we’d make the 8 again, you’d think I’d need a straight jacket. I didn’t think that btw, and I don’t think it will be another 10 years till we make the finals, but could you really crucify someone if they did? I’ve been on this forum a decade and only seen them play finals once in that time. Every year we write off, and say we’ll be a better the year after is just another year to add to the tally though. I understand it’s not popular when you are constantly saying this on a forum of the clubs most die hard supporters, but it doesn’t mean it’s not true. We’ve been a dismal club for the best part of 23 years and there’s no signs it will change in the short term.
But apart from that I have no opinion.

I had hoped we’d learned our lesson about signing 30+ year old outside backs to long term deals.
Appears not.

Yes and I have watched him in many club games. All three Broncos centres imo are better.
Hopefully we sign that Q cup beast,
Israel Leota.
And he becomes our very own version of an elite centre.

I appreciate your answer 👍..
they have been terrible since 2011.. no argument there ..in fact they have been terrible for all but three years of their existence ..
But my opinion is that you still have to have some hopes things will improve … whilst keeping the expectations modest in the short term …
Im hoping they can win 7-8 games next year and avoid the spoon… gives the fans a little bit of optimism for the future … this is certainly not a given though .. signing Charlie Staines and Mr Whippy isn’t moving the dial much ..
but more importantly…. They need this junior pathways strategy they have undertaken to drive real change … this is at least 2026 away though …
just give us something in between now and then

You need hope, not wrong there. It’s sad, cos the attitude you have deserves better than what you have been given. Fwiw, I’ll be happy once Charlie is announced. That’s a start right?
