Good pack honestly.

That’s definitely not going to be the pack IMO. Joe will wear the 13 , if he digs in into training , allowing Twal to move back to the front row . I see it as;
8. Twal/ Musgrove/ Mikalele
9. Liddle/Simpkins
10. Tamou
11 . Luciano
12. Blore / Garner
13 . Big Joe /Twal

Yeah, good pack, not convinced about Garner, but no one else at the moment, but we still have 3 spots to fill.
 
Based off last year Joe doesn’t have the motor and defence to play lock. Will need both of those to improve if he wants to play lock and play a good 60 mins a game. Twal might share the role with him early in the season

Definitely a possibility mate.

I think last year, the Broncos were a basket case team, they had a great team on paper, but assume it was down to poor coaching and poor motivation.
 
I like how this is turned out given it could have been very ugly. JO should be handy. He, like many Horse head players lost their way the last 18 months and a new stable will do him the world of good. JA to the Eagles and a one liner at the end of the signing announcement is what it deserves. Josh Who. ??
Lets all move on. As Sean T points out, a handy pack that can match many other packs in the NRL.

Yeah I tend to agree. Can pretty much put a line through the whole Broncos team last year.

For some reason it wouldnt edit properly. Yeah jo at lock. Twal on bench.

If Joe gets to his best form we will be the winners here. I think a fresh start will do him good and sounds like he’s got a point to prove and wants to buy into Madge’s ways. Would be so good if he can play his best for us

That’s a great point about buying into Madges way, all we hear is the beloney about no one wants to come hear because Madge is to hard, got a few coming now that don’t seem to mind.

Same. Garner is too small for 2nd row but too slow for centres. His defence isnt good enough either. Hope Blore makes it his spot by end of year.
 
Outstanding news.... Welcome Big Joe...
Full credit to the club for making this happen and thinking outside the box and not sitting back and excepting a player from Many that we didn't want / need.
Joe O will be excellent for us moving forward and excited for 2021.

Xmas has come early
 
all the Facebook fans are saying " sack Pascoe and Lee" because they believe we folded in this situation. Apparently they are spineless as well.

Piss weak management.. getting no players in return for the snake..

They definitely tried fam, they just couldnt pull it off. I dont blame mangement for this one

We were never going to get players for releasing him.
 
It’s not the ideal situation but a player swap was far fetched. Manly had no reason to do it, Aloiai isn’t a good enough player
