This was the 2010 side I picked in 2005. 1. Karmichael Hunt (Josh Hoffman) 2. Leon Bott (Antonio Winterstein) 3. Shaun Berrigan (Alex Glenn) 4. Justin Hodges (Israel Folau) 5. Steve Michaels (Jharal Yow Yeh) 6. Berrick Barnes (He'll come back) (Darren Lockyer) (And no he won't) 7. Brett Seymour (Peter Wallace) 8. Corey Parker (Scott Anderson) 9. Michael Ryan (Andrew McCullough) 10. Sam Thaiday (Shane Tronc) 11. David Stagg (Matt Gillett) 12. Dane Carlaw (Sam Thaiday) 13. Neville Costigan (Corey Parker) [URL]https://forums.leagueunlimited.com/threads/broncos-side-in-2010.116512/[/URL] What I learned from that thread 9 years later is that the senior squad evolves so rapidly, you can't count on every player remaining five years later. That's why I included a player like Elijah Alick, not because I thought he'd be a sure-bet, but because of what he represented. The 17-year old up and coming winger with oodles of talent. As it turns out, injuries ruined Alick, but Isaako, who came from that age group ended up filling the spot. Similar thought process with Brenko Lee. I didn't see anyone coming through who I thought was capable of playing in the three-quarters (sorry Wolfie) and thought the Broncos would have to go elsewhere and sign an up and coming talent. Again, I didn't have my heart set on Brenko, more the idea of a talented up and coming centre. In the end, the Broncos signed the Jet, who at the time was at a real career cross-roads. If you set me the challenge right now of naming the Broncos side in 2024, then I'd just give you names like Kalyn Ponga, Latrell Mitchell, Angus Crichton, Nathan Cleary, Jason Taumalolo etc. but where's the fun in that? My point back then wasn't to pick the best 17 players in 2018, it was to pick the type of players who the club would recruit, the type of players who would step up and which players would be kept around. My overall point was to show that you've got to think outside the box, what I've learned now is that you've really got to let it all hang out. [/QUOTE]
