I think Hunt's kicking game is pretty average.

While the players ready themselves for Mad Monday, Wayne Bennett and his recruitment staff have a massive task ahead of themselves.

While their roster for 2017 is all but settled, as of November 1 the players off-contract at the end of next season become fair game for the 15 rival NRL clubs.

With 14 NRL regulars off-contract, or close to $6 million worth of talent, the Broncos have a mountain of work to get through.

From household names to stars of the future, the Broncos will have to both fight and make some big calls on the future of players like Darius Boyd, Adam Blair, Josh McGuire, Alex Glenn, Ben Hunt, Andrew McCullough, Anthony Milford, Corey Oates and James Roberts.

Milford headlines the list as the hottest free agent in the game as of November.

The former Raider is poised to become the game’s next $1 million man with a long queue expected to form for the 22-year-old.

But whether Milford would be willing to leave Queensland after returning home from Canberra to help care for father Halo, who has a heart condition, remains unknown.

The bulk of his immediate and extended family all live in and around the Brisbane area.

Still the Broncos will need to find splash their cash to keep the young gun which could force Hunt out the door.

Already Hunt’s been linked with Parramatta, while another eight teams also have star halves off contract.

The Broncos rarely lose a player they want.

Justin Hodges to the Roosters is one of the few that spring to mind.

and have third party agreements done at arms length. Andrew Gee can arrange those seeing he's officially not employed by them and has been banned by the NRL

Toddles and the bald bearded f**k won't have a prob with that

It looks like someone just asked them if they were really being serious about the powerhouse thing....

The Hayne not being happy rumours has legs. Just spoke to a good contact at the club. Deep down he knows he f**ked up by not coming back to us. Has massive regrets about it. His words not mine.

Wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't show up for pre season training with the titans as we all know his heart aint in it. Would B.A. want him back at Parra if the price was right?

Well Paul Kent said that if Milford stayed at the Raiders he would of been on the books for 980k not including 3rd party deals but left to be on the books with Brisbane for 500k yep sounds fair.

Better than his catching . ..

Well Frizell has re-signed with the Dragons until 2020. I was before the Dragons game that BA was going to be having a meeting with Tyson after the end of our/Dragons season.

Either it didn't happen or nothing came from it.

Probably wanted too much cash.

And as good as Frizell is, he's not going to displace Ma'u, Scott or Edwards, imo.

Yeah, we don't need backrowers. He might displace Scott eventually, but I reckon Ma'u is a better player and Edwards (while not at Frizells' level) adds an extra dimension with his ball playing that Frizell can't offer. And Moeroa is coming through reasonably nicely as well.
