Brooks salary quoted has gone from $700k to $1.2m
That says to me no one really knows
Numbers slide to suit the angle on the story being pushed
According I’ll leave it to Sheensy, who knows the true number, to make any decision on Brooks

Great post. Sheens' view on Brooks is well-known so you know that won't suit the agenda of those on this forum pushing for him to go - excellent.

Wonder if he’s got a new business card for his meetings ?

If that’s an American Psycho reference it’s been a longtime since I’ve watched that movie.

we finished last so Madge probably should have been sacked end of 2021

Agreed. Maguire should have gone end of 2021.

exactly, if Brooks want 900k to 1 million in 2024 and above and Newcastle are wiling to pay that then I hope Sheens tells him see you later enjoy Newcastle
If Sheens can negotiate a lesser deal to stay 2024 then good outcome

Stains is 1.84 cm tall and 87 kg, he is not small. He will do well at fullback or anywhere in the backline. Ramsey if off contract in 2024, is an exciting talent at fullback and also a speedster. Having a top class FB is a must, as is a class replacement. They both offer what the Tigers have lacked for years, a skillfull and fast backline. Throw in another tough forward and a decent half and we are on the way up!

Good post. We've lacked pace in the backline for years. The club is addressing this deficiency now but some aren't happy.

So why do you keep saying that Hastings is going to be Knights bound? Unless you are basing that off hope.

Matamua is the ball playing lock we have been searching for in our NRL side. By 2024, he will be ready to take over at 13.

true they have, it will be interesting if they do get back together. They are still good friends and same manager so never know

Teddy and Moses are better friends, Moses is in Teddy's wedding party, they are the 2 we want, not Brooks

 

[pawsandclaws1]

2024 maybe, 2023 yet to be seen I guess
Plenty of players sign a year out
He never hid his dislike for Madge, we will see

You can't blame him for that.

Brown is not a hit man, he’s a big baby myth..rarely takes the line on just plays out the back. He’s exactly the type of middle we don’t need. He’s in the same level as Fifita and woods passed it...Blore owned him not too long ago.

Brown couldn't knock the skin off custard.
He is a myth, he has an angry face and his legs move fast to create an illusion of effort and intimidation.
Also appears to be an A grade Wayne Kerr.
Avoid!

Maybe POM or Cloudy Glock know more but there's a massive rumour going around WT and Newcastle are now fighting it out for Welsby, along with the Warriors. Please, please don't let Newcastle win....

would get rid of Brooks Douhie and Hastings to grab Welsby

 

[gregjm87]

Why? It's a suggestion and rumours thread. It's being suggested

Well it is a stupid suggestion given he is not available.
But mostly because there has been a large volume of post discussing him as a likely option. He has moved beyond suggestion to rumour. Continuing to treat him as a likely possibility does nothing but waste the time of, and create further disappointment to, those reading who think we are a chance of signing him.

You know it mate.
If people want Nathan back for his aggression we may as well get back Kyle LOL 😆

That is interesting in view of the Knights' interest in Brooks.

we won't be getting tedesco why the hell would he come back, set up for life at Bondi after footy with uncle nick

may well have been Brooks management trying to force an offer out of Sheens... hmmm

If that’s an American Psycho reference it’s been a longtime since I’ve watched that movie.

But who will ever forget the importance of the business card from that movie.

Do you like Huey Lewis?

Only when I’m “entertaining” !

He can certainly take a punch. Hundreds of 'em.
