Strangest deal I've ever heard of, but adds depth to our club for this season. Joash should still be the 6 if this is the case

why would I support this, we can buy a forward. Yet we signed this guy for a year to do fuck all and carry his knowledge that he learnt from Moses to Broncos yeah bro I'm gonna support a big club that treats things as a school. This is not a school were a big club, we either play Lorenzo now to learn or we don't. Learn nothing in cup.
You'll destroy Lorenzo body and confidence throwing him straight in. Needs time to get nsw cup down then in 2027 you are ready to roll.
Mate Dylan brown played NRL at 18 it boosted his confidence, If hes not ready now he'll never be ready.
I remember brown came in at 18 and his back couldn't hold up to nrl. So they had to shut him down. 2027 is the smart move for Lorenzo give him the best chance to succeed
Lorenzo is 20 next year. But with Volkman and Hawkins signed who is to say Lorenzo plays 6.
I do not see how having Pezet for a year only helps this team as oppose to just playing Joash? I do not rate Joash long term at 5/8, but we still were able to win games with him at 5/8. We can get by and he can improve and who knows prove me wrong, but if he is just ok then ease Lorenzo in with some game time in 2026 and he plays 2027. I doubt Joash or Lorenzo learn much off Pezet, they would learn more playing FG.
I love your optimism Eli.
The kid went from SG Ball, to Flegg to Cup in a matter of months. His body will have growing pains, Brown's did his debut year but will be better for it.
In terms of confidence, he will be coming into a team that had numerous rookies and a coach with a vision for blooding them. He will have some rough games, a lot of the players at the club last year did.
Brown was a much better defender than Lorenzo at 18.
Yes, impeccably so!
I'd be more pissed if we are still paying matto to do nothing for 2026 😂😂 Pezet is not an issue lol
And I don't know how we're not getting rid of matto, this club keeps getting worse
