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

"JAC and Penisini extended.
From the rest of the list it depends on how they develop but i'd extend Russell & Guymer and give Walker and Paulo reduced 1-year contracts
I'd keep Papalii if he's keen to be a backup fullback"

Even if that was true we don't need any more back ups
geez it would be nice for one of these signing rumours to eventuate lol. Screwed at the final hour with Galvin and now Pezet.
Pezet can play no doubt but just a kick in the guts knowing he will only play a year, hard to get behind that. Was already struggling to process Dyl leaving, now we gotta do it all over again lol
So a player signed for another club before even starting his contract at a different club. The NRL is a disgrace but it is puzzling by Parra. I sort of understand why as it is basically a loan deal similar to Harry Grant went to tigers. We don't have a first grade level half of his calibre outside Moses and being from Melbourne Ryles knows he will be able to follow his game plan and play to style Ryles wants.
If we bought an experienced player we could lose Joash and Lorenzo or younger options as experienced half would want longer then 1 year. If reports are true and young players are good as people think a short term option isn't as bad as many are making out.
If Moses gets injured we definitely get value out of it, as Pezet is better then our other options right now at 7. As for playing 5/8 Ryles would have been upfront that he is developing Joash and others so Pezet will have to fight for starting role and may find himself in reserves but is first man up if Moses gets injured.
Pezet has been behind Wishart a number of times this year so was only 2nd choice back up and Melbourne may have told him Wishart was their priority so first choice back up at Parra is better option for him and for Parra.

Turn around and say no thanks. It's bullshit
If you are signing Pezet to be competition for Joash, don't do the deal.
Buying an experienced player means you are buying a future 5/8.
NRL do not care as it creates clicks, they have admitted this to journo's. It has people talk about the game 12 months a year. Season is over and people will be talking about this.
No to this this. It will be a massive embarrassment if it goes ahead.
You think the Eels would sign him now after all these Eels social media pages and comments losing there minds now🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. It's all over, we have all lost it. They should tell Pezet it has to be a long term deal or find another club. We can manage for 1 year hopefully. It is quite disrespectfully on Pezets behalf as well, if he wanted a 1 year loan deal then return to storm that's understandable, but he wants to play with us for a year cause broncos don't need him then piss off to another club because he doesn't believe in our system. We shouldn't have players that don't want to be here
Na stuff it bring him in 😂 give Moses as much help as possible he isn't getting any younger lol. If Pezet is the best half we can get our hands on for 2026 then so be it.
I can't see this being true.
A one year loan doesn't benefit Parra in any way, shape or form.
Joash was playing well at 6 this season so if we were looking for a one year stop gap solution, he would be it.
Pezet is a halfback, not a 5/8.
When Hughes was out, the Storm played Pezet at halfback. When Munster was out, they played Wishart at 5/8.
They did this because Pezet isn't a 5/8.
I will go as far as to say that Pezet is a quality halfback but Papall'i is a better 5/8 with a better running game.
This will only benefit the Broncos and if the club goes ahead with this, O'Neil and Sarintinos need to be shown the door and Ryles would be close behind.
Speaking of wishart, hitting the market Nov 1 👀
