Who is steering this side around the park next year if we don't pull a rabbit of a hat? Tracey?

I made a list of off-contract players that could be described (at a stretch, in some cases) as organising halves:

Shaun Johnson
Sam Williams
Lachlan Lewis
Braydon Trindall
Tanah Boyd
Ryley Jacks
Cooper Johns
Sean O’Sullivan
Blake Green
Phoenix Crossland
Dean Hawkins
Benji Marshall
Drew Hutchison
Sam Walker (ha!)

There may be a couple of others but it I was too depressed to continue.

What a horribly depressing list.
Sharks are screwed.

TPA’s would have gotten him over the line for sure. Here’s a free car for you Adam, and your missus too plus a free boat and an extra 100k a year that doesn’t go against our salary cap.

Regardless the days of players being paid unders to play with the Broncs is over...

Where are all the know-it-all’s gone with their inside inner tube scoops? what a laugh

what a f**ken disaster.. wasn’t Fitzgibbon meant to attract the players Morris couldn’t?
I’m still here. I’ve said it heaps of times.
Reynolds agreed to terms more than 2 weeks ago, to the faces of those offering the deal. Shifty prick took a better deal for multiple reasons.

6. SJ
7. Trindall
  • Trindall local junior and come through the ranks, on cheap $$
  • Can both kick goals
  • Re-sign SJ on less $
  • Spend extra money on better pack and give the halves freedom & space
The best sides make average halves look good and good halves look great

e.g. Penrith - Luai is a good 5/8, but when you've got Fish/Yeo etc charging through the middle, Luai is lethal in good ball. Would Luai be as damaging for us?
e.g. Roosters/Melb - Hynes, Walker, Hughes - all first graders, but off the back of good packs, look excellent

Well there's agreeing to terms and signing the f**king contract. Mooney/Fitz/Co should have gotten done then and there.

I like to stick up for the club as much as possible but they f**ked this one. And Reynolds was key to us improving.

Can’t force him sign mate. Blame Coates for leaving brisbane.

So Broncos found more money to throw at him.

Were we that stubborn we wouldn't go higher with money we already clearly had. Sounds like we tried to be silly buggers and went in too low to start with.

Anyway, no point crying over it, what's done is done. My confidence in Mooney has taken a hit though, thought he was better than this.

Hopefully we use this spare cash to keep SJ now because we can’t afford to lose him, although as I said I don’t like the chances. We need him now because everyone else off contract is pretty shit
