Sucked in Broncos that's Karma. Let's hope the Hoff walks and walks straight into Belmore

I hope he realises the opportunity by being coached by Des Hasler, instead of the pretender at Canberra.
Ricky Stuart went to a Halloween Ball dressed as a pumpkin, At midnight he still didnt turn into a coach! lol

I'm interviewing Raelene in Perth today. I'll put the Hoff/Naughton options to her!

Ok so broncos are saying they won't let hoffman go, and quite a few people are saying he's already talking to the bulldogs and working out money issues . So what's really going on? Do the broncos want to keep it on the down low or are they really not releasing him . Dakar ????

Thought so ! Just pay whatever it takes to get him. There really is no other option . If we can pay trex a ridiculous amount of money to get him I'm sure we are desperate enough to get a fullback on board . The waiting game is the hardest part . See what happens I guess . IInteresting enough that Hoffman had a Instagram aaccount that was deleted and a new one made up with nothing involving the broncos ? Maybe a sign ? Hopefully

Interesting!

If you think about it.. put yourself in Hoffman's shoes. He won the 2010 fullback of the year for the Broncos... Griffin PROMISED him the fullback position for the 2014 season which is a LIE and now Hodges bags him out in public. If I was Hoffman I would be filthy and furious, and would be thinking to get revenge next year when its the Bulldogs vs Broncos. Plus if he was going nowhere he would've announced it on twitter like Hayne and Locke did.

The only party playing hard right now is Brisbane, they want to make the Bulldogs life harder now that WE want their 'Fullback'.

I am honestly very pumped right now, we get Hoffman and he will work his ASS off to be at his best. With Des and the kiwi boys behind him (Who hate Barba), he is going to give each game 110%.

I think everyone's pumped and just waiting for it to be official ! Imagine hoffman killing it and barba being a one year wonder . Lol! That would be my highlight of the season.

What I want is to see the Broncos NOT make the top 8 and the Dogs top 4... now THAT will be good to see.

we all heard hodges talk about hoffman, but can anyone ever recall a player talking to the media about a team mate like this before, I can't, and I think hodges is a cat for doing this sort of thing

Found a clip on youtube which features Curtis Naughton.

Fast forward to 1:54 mins he scores great try from nothing, I could imagine Jmoz running on the outside. ( this kids has some serious footwork- reminds me of another General)

also look at 2:39 he sets up a great try with a tricky left hand pass to the winger. not many players can make those accurate passes.

Look at 9:12 he scores an AWESOME try!! man this kid has footwork!

hope this helps

It is 9's, easy to look good with 4 less players on the field. Also that pass is nothing to cream about!

It is very odd for a team mate to publicly put you down saying you aren't good enough for your desired position and that article makes it sound like Hoffman really wants out now.

Yep, people are so desperate for a fullback signing they are seeing what they want to see... Some would see a bucket of piss and call it champagne at the moment.

Not commenting on the plays in question....haven't had a chance to watch the clip yet tbh, but you don't need a full compliment of players on the field to tell if someone has a good sidestep...a sidestep is a sidestep and technique is technique....hth

I remember people creaming about the Aaron Groom vids on you tube. That turned out well! I am not saying we shouldn't sign him, to play first grade (even in England) at 18 says you have something. I am just saying don't get excited about a video where the guy side steps into a huge gap in 9's footy.
