Looks like Turbos season is done.

Why is that?

Apparently hamstring test didn't go well, some saying they will retest in 4 weeks and go from there.

All this talk of Burton to the dogs would be dependent on penriff being as weak as us and releasing the guy 12 months early. Can't see it happening.

I heard the agreement to release Barrett was subject to him not taking Penrith players to Canterbury.![alt text](image url)

Wouldn't mind Herbie Farnworth if we are looking at Broncos players.

I never thought he looked that great this year (but nor did any other broncos player) but he is big, fast and a goal kicker. Reserve grade highlights also impressive. I'm coming around to him as a potential signing. Like the look of him a lot more than Saab.

I don't get why people think he's a great coach. 13th, 6th and 15th in his time at Manly with a roster that was hardly C-grade. He'll struggle at the Dogs and I don't think he'll get much traction luring away Penrith kids. Penrith will keep the ones they want.
 
Broncos with the cute words about Seibold being safe until EOY. Barrett another non coach achiever back at a former power club desperate for success How much input did he have into signing Cotric? It doesn't auger well for his tenure when recruitment is done prior to him taking over especially with that expenditure.

My next hope is the re-signing of McIntyre. A lot of exposure on Patrick Carrigan but imo McIntyre has demonstrated more in his short NRL tenure.![alt text](image url)

He’s more of a centre than a winger I think though. He’s done some good things even in a woeful broncos team, still very raw though but could become a Joey Manu type centre

There was a mention in here that McIntyre was close to signing a two year deal that would be really good
 
Im amazed that the Bulldogs didnt look into signing Paul Green. He (or N Brown) would have been a better fit than Barrett. IMO this deal (Barrett) was done a long time ago.

Absolutely. Pay to Barrett is going sideways.

Not really new news - We're still sniffing around for a goal kicking winger from nth of the boarder.

Dont we have a goal kicking. Centre due back in 2021.

Been listening to Nathan brown on MMM.

He has really skyrocketed in my book in terms of his assement of players, their talents, their personalities and the busness of buolding a roster.

Do yourselves a fav, check out the saturday podcasts.

Yeah I heard him about 5 weeks back talking about peoples expectations for the Dragons and how it didn’t surprise that they weren’t a top 8 side this year.
He has a lot of experience in this area I guess. Good rebuild coach.

The Roosters were sniffing around Farnworth, so there must be a fair bit of talent with him or they wouldn't be looking.

Didn't i just read it somewhere that we maybe extending Harry Grant's stay for the 2021 season .. in return Storm are happy to keep Momo as they are losing both wingers for next season .. ??
 
The Broncos players arent rubbish, yes Croft and Milford are but its the coach he clearly has lost the dressing room they are mostly young and look lost. If we had a couple a sprinkling of those players i'd have no doubt madge would squeeze the orange more than Seibold.
