Michael Jennings is awesome. He has a lot of speed but is also extremely strong and one of the best hitters in the comp for mine.. He sits props on their asses a fair bit.

Overall, he's a good player and would be an asset to any club, but he's not off contract unfortunately.

We can still sign him for 2010 lol. If we miss out on Boyd and Michaels which is likely save the cash and offer Jennings a contract too good to refuse. he would prob be worth close to 300-320 k on the open market because of a shortage of quality centres. The rorters will be eying him when he comes off contract. Every club except the Broncos will be gunning for him. Will be very hard to attract to the club, but he would be awesome.

C'mon folks, our recruiment strategy of tagetting St George, North Sydney & Parra lower graders over the past 2-3 years has got to pay dividends soon...we know talent when we see it...Chris Tuatara, Namila Davui, Billy "the kid" Ngwini,Ben Csislowski, Conrad Taekimoeaka, Charlie Leano, Daniel Holdsworth, Nathan Armit....mate we're so good at signing lower other teams "reggie rejects" we are now bursting at the seams with quality and depth.

Who needs established FG's eh?

Harris is still playing good footy. I haven't seen any of his game since he left for ESL until the City Country game. Be nice to have him, I just don't know what his circumstances are or what he's looking for with his game, team and lifestyle. But i'm not gonna give it energy, i've had enough of all this rumour crap.
Ben harris has been changing my mind oin him lately. He's very strong and has made some breaks in recent matches. I just don't think he has good enough footwork or pace.

Apparently Michaels has said he will stay with Broncos. He is happy to play on the wing outside Hodges and Folau. Boyd is tipped to join Bennet at Dragons. We would have to throw alot of money at them to attract them and even then that might not be enough. The Titans are also chasing Michaels. I dont have enough confidence in Millard. I really think we need a fast centre with more attacking potence. We really need either Boyd or michaels. Jennings is great but realistically how many clubs will be after him next year if indeed he goes on the open market before panthers sign him. We lack pace and spark in the centres apart from Winitana.
You just wanna sign someone new for the sake of it. Millard is heaps better than 'does nothing besides finish easy tries Boyd'. Millard has great ball skills and is just as good, or a better finisher than Boyd.

What about Michaels? Is Millard better than Michaels ? We are losing a quality centre next year. So you don't think we need another centre ?

Well Brisbane is already $300000 over the salary cap for 2009 therefore, they will have to unload 2 players. Therefore, it will be hard for the Broncos to resign Boyd and Michaels.

Heard a rumour don't know how much truth is in it but apparently it came from Kevin Moore.
Blair from Melbourne will be signing, Luke Walsh to replace Holdsworth next year who is going to be released and Thurston to return in 2010.
Like i said just a rumour but could be some truth in it.

Whose is Luke Walsh??? Ben Barba would replace Daniel Holdsworth don't you think? Lure Johnathan Thurston ASAP.

Wouldn't mind Luke Walsh. Would be better than Holdsworth and would already have plenty of experience playing under Joey and training with him, not to mention he is a little speedy freak. Would definitely welcome Walsh but still, I want to see Groom given a go. Blair is good, but this year has been average at best.

Luke Walsh should be a good buy. Blair would be a good signing also. He could become a starter if he had a good offseason.
