Daily Telegraph/Rothfield Joe Ofahengaue

[Malla]

Chasing him for next year.

Has 2 years to run on his Broncos contract but they are letting him negotiate. It would be low risk if Broncos are paying a portion of his salary. Am pretty certain this bloke was playing origin at one point? Would be great if we could fuck Napa off for him.

 

[Baseball Furies]

Would be a good signing mate, particularly like you said if we could send Napa “home” as a sweetener...

 

[NPC83]

Ofa’s form was pretty strong only 12-18months ago. If broncos chip a portion in then why not.

 

[BlackJackBulldog]

Foran/Napa swap for Ofa?

 

[Delta]

I am 100% opposed to Ofahengaue signing. He is worse than Napa.

 

[NPC83]

Foran/Napa swap for Ofa?

Foran off contract so won’t be swapped but Ofa for Napa would be ok. Don’t think either are worth $650k but Ofa is closer.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

I'd rather noit.

 

[doggieaaron]

Pretty average tbh

 

[GDR]

I would not be judging any broncos player over the past 6 months..

Yeah he was looking like one of the better front rowers in the comp. The game he had against Aussies playing for Tonga was extraordinary.

It's gotta be an issue with the system in Brisbane. Anyway, he would be a great acquisition for us.

 

[GA45]

Can’t tackle. At least the Napa pillow does something this bloke is horrible

 

[bradyk]

Get Broncos to chip in ~100k and it's a good signing given we need to strengthen at prop. Also we're stuck with Napa unless we're willing to contribute 250-350k of his contract.

 

[berries1935]

i feel this sort of player is exactly what we are after, young ex origin player moving clubs, new coaching and something to prove. Players that showed plenty of promise and for some reason haven't fulfilled it yet

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

What about John Asiata or Matt Eisenhuth ?? Fucking cheaper and better than Ofa. Even Peni Terepo has more of a dig. Anyway if we do end up with him I pray to fucking Mary herself he gets his Origin form back

 

[Typical dog]

We don't need to sign anymore "what ifs" or "maybe reach their potential" players. We don't have many spots to fill and we have a fair bit of cash, let's not waste it on guys like this

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Don't worry we won't get him as it's rumoured Griffin wants him.

 

[B-Train]

I hope not. He's been shit for two seasons and only made Origin because QLD had no forwards to pick from at the time. Even Napa made Origin just three seasons ago I think and he's utter garbage.

Ofahengue would be a Napa-esque signing. No more scraps from fellow cellar dwellars please.

Eisenhuth is very underrated. He'd be a good signing as he can play prop or lock as he has some skill and he wouldn't cost much.

You rate Napa's defence?

 

[Daustin]

he is horrendous, watched him play for brisbane this year and some of the tackles ive seen him miss are both a mix of bad technique and bad attitude. pass
