[QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3668488, member: 1899"] It's not exactly alien, but let's break it down. Tom has played 46 games in the ESL, of the 46, 1 was in the second row and two were off the bench. I would not sign him under the pretense that he could be our Kurt Capewell replacement, not on those figures. I'd look at him purely as a plug and play centre, if he can fill in the backrow if there was an emergency, that's a bonus but I wouldn't have high expectations. My point is, a first grader should be the priority right now. Get that signing done first and see what's left over for an Opacic. Otherwise the Broncos will run into the same problem where they made 'responsible' depth signings in Pereira, Hoeter, J. Hunt etc. and they were virtually a no-show. As it stands, the cap isn't in that bad a shape. The problem is, the Broncos don't know what they're working with because they're keeping enough aside to try and hold onto the players they want to. They won't know what they're working with until that point in time. They may need to expedite that process and set deadlines for certain players/agents and other players may have to make room. Which isn't to say it's easy, tough decisions will have to be made and they'll need to be smart about how they put certain deals together. However, if they think they can get by with minimal changes and just sign a couple of depth players who fell into their lap they're asking for serious trouble. [/QUOTE]
