Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 3024842, member: 8215"] To be fair, Barba, Hoffman & Hala were in quite different situations. * Barba was performing poorly, obviously hampered by injury and also being a dick. We couldn't find a locked-in spot for him despite us needing both a fullback and a five-eighth. * Hoffman was bitching about wanting a role beyond wing, as if it was somehow beneath him. * Hala was going absolutely nowhere and basically highlighted the gap between U20's and NRL. McGuire, Kahu & Nikorima have all bled for the jersey, and were shifted around to suit the team's requirements at various times without making a peep. They are exactly the sort of players that fans have called for, in that they live for the Broncos jersey, they trained hard, and tirelessly chased improvement. On the other side of things, it is true that we haven't won a premiership. If there was ever a time to have a cull, it's now, with a new coach, new facilities, and new mindset. And as has already been mentioned, the Broncos facilitated the above players to attract better deals than they had here - either better job security, better price, longer contract, or in some cases all of the above. Also, it would appear that we're chipping in very little, if anything, for the players who are leaving, which is fantastic for our future cap position. It sucks to have to show a bunch of dedicated life-Broncos the door, but it could have been much worse. Edit: Quoted wrong post. [/QUOTE]
