Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3215150, member: 9853"] [COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)][I]First board meeting of the season this week. [B]Darren Lockye[/B]r, being the only one on the entire board who knows his arse from a football will be there, unlike the most recent Old Boys pissup. Hopefully, with [B]Kevvie[/B] at the helm, his bros Tallis, Johns and co won't be up his arsecrack about letting the team go to shit under his watch. He's also manning the [B]recruitment and retention committee[/B], which decides the roster. It could do with a shakeup:[/I] “I am committed. I’ve always been about what’s best for the team. That’s always been the motto at the club. I am there as part of an overall team, I’m there to play my part. I do enjoy it. Last year was a difficult year for everyone at the club. It was really disappointing to watch it happen and where we ended up, finishing last, is totally foreign to the club. It was a unique experience you don’t want to go through again. From a board perspective we want to do what we can and provide the support for the executive team, coaching staff and players. We want to put as many support mechanisms as we can around them so they’re set up for success.” [ATTACH type="full" alt="f7eab1c357805bfffb47b32da841de75.jpg"]11306[/ATTACH] [I]The future starts today[/I] “There is a young group there that needs to be led in a training environment. Those experienced guys that have come back, character and attitude is what the club was built on and that’s been important with the older guys coming back. The Broncos don’t have a lot of cap-space so we’re not in the market for (marquee players).” [I]And here's [B]Petero [/B]on this year's crop of veteran signatures:[/I] “It’s been fantastic to have their experience, especially for our younger players. [B]Xavier Coates[/B] can see the way [B]David Mead[/B] applies himself to training and the professionalism he brings to the club. You can’t undervalue that. The same with [B]John Asiata[/B]. He is a wonderful rugby league player. The toughness and ball-playing ability he adds to the pack is something we will really benefit from. It’s been noticeable at training the way he guides our young forwards in and around the ruck. It helps lessen the load on our halves. We haven’t had a ball-playing forward that can direct our forward pack. They are a couple of guys who have come to the club and made a big difference.” McHunt[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
