Broncos Recruitment

[Dazzat]

Would be happy with Shillington coming to the club. Totally agree with Thaiday and Maguire to the back row.

He'll be either at the Roosters or in rugby. Cooper can get f*cked. I don't want him anywhere near the Broncs and if our strict disciplinary approach has ANY value whatsoever, then they shouldn't ever even approach Cooper, after what he has done in the past and who we've rejected in the past for disciplinary reasons.

SBW is a backrower. Why you'd put him in the centres is beyond me, plus Reed and Hoffman are the one combination we currently have that is actually working. Why would we want to break it up?

We'd be FAR better off leaving it where it is and finding a fullback...

I wasn't talking about signing Cooper as well, I just said that with Quade living in Brisbane it may be a factor that would help sign him, as for him not being a centre didn't he win a World Cup with the All Blacks playing in the centres? And I know they are different games but the guys an athlete and his form in the NRL this season warrants serious consideration.

Signing shillington is like signing civo. We pick up a bloke at the death of his career to fill in for now.

This only stalls real growth and will ultimately leave us looking for new players at the end of their career in 2 years time because the club was too lazy to do some decent signing and developing younger players to deliver for the next 10 years ala webcke & petero.

We were gearing up for a dry patch 3 years ago when we were facing retirements from key players & most fans accepted it. The club has done nothing in that time and here we are accepting that success is years away still.

....Uhhh, not sure how to take this. Shillo isn't in the best form.

Just ran 186m from 20 hitups in a badly beaten side on Friday night. He'd be a good buy if he came cheaply.

The Broncos have also doubled up on Tasi's. Signing Lama's young brother Tasi Tasi. He's a gun 18-year-old winger playing QCup for Ipswich

..Tasi Tasi? Wow...

 

[Bretto]

Lol, what a name!

Anyone know much about him?

 

[GoTheBroncs]

He must be pretty good given he is playing QLD cup at 18???? Just guessing...

The Ipswich team just got a bit more exciting re: Broncos, with the two Tasi's!!

Shillington's signing will balance the signing of Tasi, who is 24 I believe.

Taulatasi Tasi - 180cm 95kg Wing/Centre

A few tries against him on his wing(I think 3, one from him rushing out of the line..though not sure, quality not great), scored a double.

There's a 3rd younger brother too, 15-16.

the Tasi triplets. Im liking this!!

 

[GoTheBroncs]

Step aside Burgess and Sims brothers, here come the Tasi's!

 

[Pierced Soul]

RLW's the Mole said this morning that barba is a done deal for the broncos. hope its correct

 

[Tera]

Barba would be a fantastic signing.

 

[Packy]

With him being under contract you would think there are concessions somewhere.

 

[DeeJ]

Barba is too good to be true. I doubt we get him, just because we don't recruit that king of player.

Broncos team are hopefully the "mystery" club (doubt if there's any) bidding for this kid:

saw that, hoping it was us too, but we'd need to move some players on for that to happen if we also get barba. always a chance wallace will go back to penrith, and we're losing norman, but we might need to also offload either hunt or prince

 

[AceAv]

How likley is the Barba deal though?
