Also I think Bennett had him as a reserve grade tackling lock. Not hooker.

Classic.

I think it shows the mess that the broncos are in. If a top 4 team comes sniffing around a bottom 4 team's player, then that ought to signal that he is a player with potential. Crazy stuff from the broncos.

We have all of a sudden become the go to team for the better players on the market now, take a break Roosters there's a new player in town..lol.

Is there anything official yet ,Don't want to count our bulls before they're hatched.

I'm sure there's a 10 day cooling off period before official announcments

Bullemores signing still not official but looking like it could happen pretty soon. Is there any information on whether Walker has agreed to the club's offer? If not has Bullemore been offered the role that Walker is playing for us in 2021. i.e 60 minutes off the bench as lock, with Jake going into prop rotation? If that's the case, our bench suddenly looks very different next year. Long range prediction but it could be:

14. Lawton
15. Bullemore
16. Aloiai
17. Keppie
18. Sipley

I actually hope that Walker signs with us again. We need that centre/utility depth that he provides us with. Interesting times ahead. Go Manly.

It is on Wikipedia, so it must be official

I imagine Suli and Bullemors official announcements will be held off till after we are done for the year.

As someone said above this is a sign that manly is being professional. Announcing during finals prep isn’t the main game.

In recent times Manly have held off announcing signings so they can get max impact (or so they think) in membership campaigns, even after the signings seem like common knowledge.
Also as others mention, cooling off periods, and we are in the midst of a huge finals campaign..

The dude's got some serious pace for a big man. If he wore headgear, you'd think it was Beaver!

So the 1990's way of strategic thinking

it's the opposite of the channel nein formula - tell em what you're gonna tell em, tell em, then tell em what you told em.

Maybe Des plans to use him as a winger!

Telegraph article

"One of Brisbane’s young bucks has the reputation among his teammates as being the fastest and the strongest player at the club.

Backrower Ethan Bullemor has been known to bench press 180kg in the Brisbane gym and can also out-run most backs during the club’s sprint sessions.

“He’s a freak that kid,” forward teammate Matt Lodge said.

“He’s close to being the best athletically.

“There’s something in the water out at Springsure (where he’s from) because he’s definitely the fastest forward and the strongest.”"

SPEED KILLS !!!

Other things to ponder:

Can Saddler recover enough to be able to play again?
Is Boyle going?

Not sure at all that Saddler is the messiah people are claiming. So far he has been just a body - does a decent job. Like de Luis - nothing flash does ok.

Cant see him possibly replacing Walker unless he suddenly has great ball skills. Walker will re-sign - Des has done too much for him and stood right beside him for Walker to move on. He looks a Fifita type who will be a great edge when Schu moves to 5/8. I think though we get a far far better version of that Jane Fifita who is a heartless flat track bully with poor defence and little effort unless it is time to put the ball over the try line.
