Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Mighty_Tiger said:
POM has mentioned it more than once that Sheens would like Brooks to stick around longer than 23.

Re Moses - I don’t think he has made it clear, Moses would be a Benji squad signing & Benji has actually come out publicly and said he hasn’t even spoken to Mitch (could be bluffing - or could have Farah doing the talk, but Benji has said it multiple times).

What is interesting the most out of all the halves talk is anything on AD is dead quiet which is normally not a positive sign if we want to retain him.

We think things are bad now, they actually could get alot worse soon if we aren’t careful.

probably means they are thinking centre not in the halves ?

did papali get accused of tanking or mahoney or Api ?
If Sheens lands a number 7 from u.k then maybe he goes in 2023
Sheens is not in the habit of strengthening other nrl sides, Newcastle have gamble possibly keighran in 2023 to play 7 that is it
2024 good luck to Brooks if he chases the cash

Sheens helped build the sharks from the ground up by throwing our players at them so he could get his duds Blair and Anasta here,or have you forgotten where the term Tigersharks originated from

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!

I tend to think making a play for Ramsey is a decent idea. He isn’t an Illawarra local and has Slone snapping at his heals. Saints would be stupid not to try and fit Slone, Amone and Sullivan in their 17 by 2024.

who said he is buying places in Newcastle. His mum is a Principal of a school in Sydney, he is pretty close to his family and just had a baby.
Part of me thinks it might be to rattle Sheens cage and get wests tigers to make an offer to keep him early who knows

If the plan is to reunite Moses and Brooks under Sheens after 7 years apart.
Does anyone see the partnership more effective this time round?

Ramsay is from Molong, another good product from the Central West.
It’s a wonder Panthers didn’t pick him up.
That’s why I agree with playing a game at Tamworth each year to try and tap into some of their talent.

don't know if it will be more effective or not, jus think that might be the way Sheens is thinking.
Since they last played together Mises has played in semi finals a state of origin game
Brooks has won Dally M halfback of the year.
I would say both are better players than when they were together last time.
Big difference no tedesco this time

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.

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
