Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2883401, member: 1899"] The Broncos season was handed a death sentence as soon as Hunt signed with St George Illawarra. Whatever stability the Broncos had in the spine was completely thrown into question and suddenly one of the Broncos' biggest advantage over the rest of the competition was compromised. In fact, the whole free-agency system in the NRL is a joke. The Broncos were doing all they could to develop Herman Ese'ese into their next 60 minute forward and that was all squandered when Newcastle came along with a big money offer the Broncos couldn't hope to match. So instead of playing for 2017, there were times where it was clear the club was more worried about 2018 and it affected a lot of players. Adam Blair was one of the Broncos best players over the past two seasons and his ability to play the link role gave the Broncos a tremendous advantage. However, as soon as he was informed he was moving on, Blair went back into auto-pilot and couldn't commit himself like he once did. That pass in the Round 25 game was a telltale moment. Fans can point fingers and come up with all sorts of speculation but Wayne gave everybody the answer last night. Through out the entire year, the team-list read like a game of musical chairs which you can't do, especially not in the lead up to the finals. In spite of this, there was still the trademark Broncos culture on show. There were a few games where they should have lost it, but through sheer determination and belief they managed to finish over the top of the other side and take it. I was never happy with the style of play, but the attitude was usually top notch. The Broncos '17 side was at a cross-roads with a lot of players not on the same page. Bold decisions were made and while the future appears unclear, I've got faith we've got the right people involved to win that elusive premiership. [/QUOTE]
