They also have Sean O’Sullivan and Troy Dargan waiting for a crack. Actual halves.
Actual halves with one NRL game between them. Salmon and Drown have 16 times that many! And both still eligible for Flegg ffs!!!

Drown has won two games in the halves, Salmon has won four. Takairangi has won four. Smith has won seven, . Gutherson has won eight. Hoffman has won nine games in the halves.

How many have the Broncos rookies won? Four between them.

That's what's f**ken exciting.

Thats fine when you have two recognised halves in the squad. We have Moses and a 18 yr old Rookie. Which has been my point all along.

So we should of kept Norman and left Brown in reserves is what your suggesting?
Norman and Moses didn't work. By releasing Norman we could front load contracts and push Browns development a year forward so be in a better position next season you twit.

Where did I say we needed to keep Norman?? But he or Moses had to go to get Drown into the top 30. He should of already been in the top 30, but we offer blokes like Dill Smith 3 year deals instead.

We have 1 recognised half and an 18!yr kid as our best options going forward and people piss and moan when that is pointed out. But we have Taka, Smith and Hoffman lol. Jesus rap dancing Christ the lengths people go to to do some hugging.

It wasn't to get Drown into the top 30, it was to get him into the starting side.

How many clubs have a better third choice halfback than us? Not many.

If any.

Most clubs will reshuffle their backline due to lack of quality backup halves.

Lol love the pau pau spin doctor. No percentages no nothing.
The fact is, when the broncos half or say a Kyle Flanagan come in, they are very well rounded footballers with all the basics down pat.
When Salmon comes in after serving an apprenticeship under ba, he has basically zero long kicking game and plenty of other flaws, leaving Mitchell Moses getting trapped trying to kick out of our own area.

It's obvious that the juniors who come through our systems are lacking the skills.

You don't like Dylan Brown's skill level? Or should we have produced multiple NRL quality rookie halves? Maybe we should've kept Troy Dargan. That merkin is killing it in the NRL!

Tell me why is there only one player who has been developed by ba - Mahoney, that is good enough to be in the Eels starting 13 ? 6 years and we have one player who's good enough to start.

Gutherson manly
Ferguson roost
Jennings roost
Hoff Broncos
Sivo penrith
Smith Penrith
Moses Wests
Jnr p Ricky Stuart
Mahoney BA
Evans Roosters
Mau dogs
Lane Dogs
Moeroa Ricky Stuart.

Its obvious that ba must purchase ready made players, as the development ratio over the past 6 seasons has been a major embarrassment coming from one of the biggest jnr areas in the NRL

Read sixties training blogs on TCT Salmon also trained in opposed sessions as a 6 with Salmon partnering Moses and Brown with Corey.

And people piss and moan when it’s pointed out we have 2 recognised halves, one an 18yo who is currently injured, we have another youngster who was back up to them who is being rotated to stop him also getting injured, we then have like 3 guys who aren’t as good in halves (or in general in some cases) but can make do for a few weeks
