Taupau: It's a great ecosystem here at Broncos | NRL.com
Martin Taupau faces the media for the first time as a Bronco.

Yes interviewed on TV and broadcast on both Chan7 & 9 last night here in Brisbane.
Must say it was funny to see him standing there in a Donkey jersey but I wish him well.
I think however he’s just a cover for Haas who I don’t even think is back at training yet.
At best a bench forward , at worst in QCup excepting injuries.

When they leave Manly ... they are dead to me .
When are you going to do your top 8 predictions thread ?
Yeah, saw it Mark, cringeworthy to say the least. Hand on jersey/heart, saying how he wants to mentor the younger Broncs forwards. Where was this gesture in the last few years at Manly...please !!
Yep , he’s been switched off for a while now but it’d be funny if he turns back on and becomes the gun forward of the competition, that would be a real smack on the face.
About two weeks before we start , we need to get the trials going first

Some in the media are still calling him "An Enforcer" they couldn't have been watching him the last few seasons.
Will be interesting to see how Marty goes. The games where there're under pump and with the big Suncorp crowd expecting Marty to lead through his hit-ups will be his defining point with the Broncs fans.
Change is as good as a holiday , he’ll probably be a star

Or ‘enforce’ his way out of a wet paper bag.
Yeah, saying all the right things, trotting around like a show pony at training. Come match day.....the penny drops !!
I bet he's happy that he can continue playing like an absolute plod and end up top of the table.
It seems pretty obvious to me that Marty will not be seeing significant game time unless the Ponies run into significant injury issues.
Or he might get a bit of a run during Origin.
Apart from that, he's going to be riding the pine.
