Corey Oates should be high on our list now and should of been weeks ago.. He is only 26 and has a lot of experience.

Nick Graham had a lot of experience too...

He’s not playing first grade at Red Hill for a reason - steer well clear of him or we will just keep making the same poor decisions.

He played first grade Thursday night and played really well.

Despite putting in their best performance in a year on Thursday night, it seems even the biggest stars at the Broncos are not safe.

The Australian’s Brent Read told Triple M on Saturday that there’s set to be some “big changes” at Red Hill.

“There’s been some whispers around in the last couple of weeks that there’s about to be some big changes at the Broncos. There’s been some agents that have been told ‘just hold fire, we’re going to make a call in the next couple of weeks on what we do and who we move’,” he saud.

“I expect there’ll some guys to be tapped on the shoulder potentially in the next week or two at the Broncos.”

Read believes Brisbane’s starstudded forward pack are in the firing line as the Broncos try to find money to throw at Kotoni Staggs and up their chase for South Sydney’s Adam Reynolds.

“They’re very stacked in the middle of the field. They’ve got about $3 million in Payne Haas, **Tevita Pangai Jnr**, Matt Lodge and Thomas Flegler,” he said.

“They tried to move Lodge in the off-season, they weren’t able to do it but I suspect one of those guys will be on the move because they need to free up cash, not only to keep Kotoni Staggs but I suspect to step up that move for Adam Reynolds in the coming weeks

Tavita would be my pick
Probably good mates with Ofahengaue
Could possibly help us retain Simpkin and Simpkins
We could end up having a Qld and Indigenous flavour to our team

Imagine this

Musgrove
Simpkin
Stefano
TPJ
Garner
Ofahengaue


LJ
Blore
Amone
Simpkins
Tamou
Mikaele
Liddle

It would be the strongest forward rotation in the competition

With Laurie at the back and Doueihi in the halves we are starting to look very strong and I think the game against souths shows what we are capable of if we can play consistently
Add TPJ and a new Centre and Wing with speed and we will have our team

I rate everything you said, except Garner

We've many young Qlders in our SG Ball and Flegg Teams. This is the way you recruit, not wait until they are established stars because WTs is not a preferred destination. Even if we do manage to snare a name, it will come at a cost, much greater than one of the more fancied teams.

 

[Spartan117]

We've some pretty useful wingers in our Flegg. Why spend a fortune when we can produce one or two with histories we are aware of?

Agree,

Dogs paid 650k for cotric. Not earning his keep in a unleveled team.

We need our Sivo or Ravalawa to come from within.

I think Adam Pompey is off contract, I like him at centre.

He also plays winger and 1.9 m tall.

Went off today with busted knee

did we sign him?

 

[Spartan117]

No more has beens please.

No mansour, no Ferguson, no Moylan no Duggan, no Hoparte,

Continue to invest in youth and players on the rise.

This will create the culture and harmony needed to want to Continue together for a few years.

At least a minimum 6 players from the starting team yesterday need to be shown the door ASAP! The issue of no effort has to be addressed immediately .. I want players dropped for this coming week and really could not give a dame who replaces them ! If this does not happen tomorrow afternoon the sooner Maguire is gone the better .

Worst. Fan. Ever.

 

[JC99]

We need an outside back badly. Surely the club has some plan?!? @THE_POM @CCTW Any good news 😂

 

[Roar_Power]

They will definitely have a plan. I imagine we will find out about it soon enough.

Maybe we get naden early but Penrith wouldn't help us out I reckon

 

[weststigerman]

We desperately need a specialist winger this season.

Talau, AJ (Gone for this year), BJ, Hoffman are all better centres.

Having someone safe who can slot in there makes the rest of the backline stronger.

Cini

I’d like to see how he goes and I think he’s done enough to get a crack, but not sure he’s a winger either.

 

[hodgo]

We definitely need a winger and a centre or two possibly. Maybe they use guys from within the club but surely we throw cash money at Coates!

After seeing Zac Cini play in the NSW cup in the fullback position I’d be more than willing to give him the an opportunity to lock down the wing position for WT, his game stats at fullback show he deserves it.

Totally agree

Hope we do. He has talent.

Offer Panthers Cini for him?

I guess defence would be the main risk.

Corey Oates should be high on our list now and should of been weeks ago.. He is only 26 and has a lot of experience.

Nick Graham had a lot of experience too...

So he played Thursday v Top of the table Panthers and get 17 carries for 164m ..
Pretty sure that is better than all our current wingers

He would not take massive money to get him and the broncos have a lot of top wingers in there team as it is.

Its a YES from me especially sense AJ is out for the season.
He also has player SOO football just like Joe O and looked what he has done sense the move to us.

We should definitely be making some hard enquiries about him.

Problem is he's starting now they will be more reluctant to let him go.... we need to offer thej Billy but even that might not work.

Naden playing full back in reserves.
