Honestly? The last type of player Robbo would look to recruit. Fake News.

Roosters to Pursue Jorge Taufua - SMH

I feel like we don't want to recruit a star. We need a winger for the next few months until Suaalii, Smith and Ikuvalu return.
Robbo also said that a loan system might work (when asked). To me we need somebody who's fit, injury-free and keen to play some footy. It's a real shyte because it's been like...
- B-Moz
- Ikuvalu
- Suaalii
- Smith
All out for the season!
That's on top of Friend, Cords, Collins and Keary. It's just really shyte luck!
Robbo talked about patterns and said [paraphrase] 'there is no pattern! We own the injuries as there's no such thing as bad luck but they're all over the field and all different injuries!!!'
The only pattern I see is that they're all leg-related injuries. Theory... but are we either over-using our legs (we run a looot of metres) or simply not stretching & strengthening our legs properly? That or I dunno... are we landing the wrong way? Meh I wish I knew.

It would make sense to be chasing Jamayne Isaako If was the powers to be, And we all know that we need a goal kicker that has some other quality about them. He is a winger he is super fast he runs the ball back with punch he can step he can play fullback & he kicks goals at a high rate. The Broncos don’t need him for his kicking next year, Reynolds takes care of that & they stated they wanted to keep Tesi Niu. As they see him as a long term bronco. This way it’s a win win for everyone. With talk also of SST to Super league & Billy Smith recovering from a foot injury he won’t be kicking for a while. We need this guy ASAP

My god I hope we pass on Dugan. Honestly that bloke cannot be relied on at this stage of career, as sad as it sounds but he’ll probably end up at the casualty ward by the end of the season. Huge pass on him.
Someone mentioned isaako ^ that’s another goodie for me. Gee whiz the broncos have some talent, if only they had their shit together! Could’ve really formed a dangerous team. But yeah, Jamayne would be a great pick up, a better suited option for us rather then Niu. Hopefully we can have a look at him.

Toops and Taufua are best mates. I wonder if that has something to do with it. I’ve worked a little with Jorge and he’s an absolute champion and I’d see him fitting in very well with our culture. Our defensive system however I’m not so sure.

Need to be quick as August 1 is the deadline for any last minute signings - Can't imagine any of players being mentioned being released by their Clubs though even if the Chooks were interested - if someone was signed for how long would it be just for the rest of the current season and they return to their club or for next year as well?

If J-Moz retires then we're still covered (Teddy, Toop, Billy, Suaalii and Iku would be a great backline... with Abbey also on our books). I don't think we're looking to throw $$$ at Taufua on a 3 year deal (for example).
