Rumoured signings 2014 / 2015

[ek999]

You watched any Broncos games this year? Better off keeping Perrett at fullback

 

[natheel]

I don't think concessions would do anything. They are already throwing massive amounts at these players, they just don't want to play there for whatever reason.

1. Its in Canberra
2. Stuart hasn't got exactly the best argument to lure young players down apart from $$$
3. They're going backwards not forward

 

[Doomednow]

If North Queensland can pull off the regional centre team thing then I don't see why Canberra can't. It's only 2 and a half hours from Sydney. We used to drive down on Friday nights after work and be in the pub by 9.30 (had a mate studying down there), and that was with traffic and other dicking around.

NQ has better weather (although maybe too hot for some), Johnathan Thurston, and a coach who doesn't suck as hard as Sticky, but Canberra's got a history and a solid junior system. There's no reason they can't be successful again, they've just made a bunch of consecutive poor decisions over a long time. Club needs a clean out, some competent management and a serious attempt at rebuilding.

People were saying similar shit about Penrith only a couple of years ago, and now we've resigned the statistically top winger in the comp on a lower value contract. It's not all doom and gloom for Canberra if the club is prepared to turn itself around.

Has Hoffman ever passed the ball?? I swear he just runs or kicks.

 

[ek999]

I don't thinnk so. Perrett didn't have a passing game either at the start of the year but he has worked hard and now, even though it isn't best, he is decent

Hoffmans preferred position is fullback, which doesn't require passing as much as a five-eighth. Did you guys see him at the Broncos last year when he was fullback? He was blossoming in what was otherwise a very ordinary team!

You must be watching a different Hoffman to me then. I saw one that looked like a decent winger playing fullback.

He is a talented ball runner with some good footwork, he should be nowhere near the halves imo, i've seen him butcher more then one this season simply by not letting go of the ball.

pearce was tutoring him over the off season

I reckon even Pearcey could of set up some of the ones i've seen Hoffman ruin.

There is some talk that the Bronco's deal with Milford could be on shaky ground due to this salary cap drama. Is it possible that he may stay?

The raiders should certainly still be able to afford him.

1. Tedesco
6. Milford

Would be interesting.

You'd have to think that if he were to become available again, a team like the Dogs would throw a bit at him.

Here we go again, seriously it's getting a bit old. I can't wait for the end of this round and the end of the year when Milford starts training in Broncos colours to shut all this crap down once and for all. It seems to start up with in a week or two of it getting shut down.

He butchers atleast 1 a game, generally 2 or more. In the loss to the titans it was something ridiculous like 3 clear over laps on the line he butchered. His inept passing has cost us games. And don't get me started on the clean break made and he couldn't even pass it on the inside cleanly throwing an inside pass an under 10's front rower would be ashamed of.

Hoffman is a great winger, he is a finisher, not a creator and the fact that he can't pass and 99/100 he doesn't as soon as he gets the ball you don't have to worry about much other than tackling him.

If the bulldogs want him I hope they get him I really do.

Pearce passes like Thurston compared to Hoffman.

 

[Bulldog Force]

Gee's guys... I'm talking about Hoffman the fullback, not halfback!

Dogs have a decent fullback coming through anyway don't they? Brendan Cox or Tyrone Phillips? I would imagine Hoffman would be warming the spot for one of them anyway. On his day at the back Hoffman is great, but those days are few and far between, all it takes is for someone to hit him hard once and he crumbles for a few weeks. Even Hoffman the fullback is greedy and kills the attack when he chimes in. He either scores or dies with the ball as a general rule, even when in the 1.

 

[Mixmasterreece]

How so?

Well if he's looking for LONGTERM game time he'll be behind Peats and Pritchard (and that other kid who I can't remember the name of)next year

 

[eozsmiles]

This is the main reason I beleive,Teddy is the only one who took the bait,wonder how he is feeling now.

I don't know how he will sleep at night. Probably on a big pile of money in a free apartment and surrounded by beautiful women.

better and could explain all the drinking the raiders players do

 

[BunniesMan]

My sources are telling me Tedesco is to get out of his Raiders deal. Massive backflip.

Saw a tweet from james hooper regarding this, what can you do but laugh about the mess of the raiders.
