RUMOR: "Biggest signing in the club's history"

[AceAv]

Any "big rumours" announced on a sleepy Sunday have 0 merit.

Far from being the biggest signing in bronco history but James Roberts just officially requested a release.

Yeah, I doubt Dobbo was talking about that.

I don't think he is that stupid.

Current club captain though so I'd be shocked if they released him to sign Burgess.

.....and agreed, not interested in him. We made the GF without him FFS, not required imo

Well we did make the GF without him, and we would have won it with him

Well James Roberts is a player I barely glimpsed at -but looking at his highlights reel on youtube he actually is a good replacement for Hodges. Big stride and has Hodges speed as a youngster -nice fend and ball handling skills too.

I guess its good bye Maranta?

How so? Boyd's positioning for that last try I take it?

He's probably the fastest player in the game for pure speed and acceleration.

He's the fastest Rugby League player I've ever seen.

Without a shadow of a doubt. I'm sure there's been the rare budding u20's player with his pace, but no bona fide nrl player. He's electric, and this signing would have me salivating.

I remember the first time I saw him debut for the rabbitohs Toyota cup team on fox as I tuned in.

They made mention he was Amos Roberts relation. Second touch of the ball I saw him get, scored a 110m try from his own in goal.

Yep, he's just on another level to everyone else speed wise.

I love they way he started to use his speed to get on the outside of his opposite centre, draw the opposite winger in and put his own winger over in the corner this year.

Not getting my hopes up until he has signed.

His positioning is terrible for a centre. I can only imagine how it would be at the back.

Are we sure we are not taking "biggest" into context here. We could be signing Kasiano or Georgie Rose for all we know :laugh:
