So not 'most importantly crowds '?
🤔

Have you been to the Homebush Vacuum? There is no atmosphere and the beers are twice the price.

87 and 88 were at Parra stadium

Fair call
But the ‘old’ Parra stadium..
Same vibe 🤷‍♂️

Just having a little fun with ya. Crowds were most important until you realised LO didn't get the biggest crowds.😉
I don't care where we play.

Get back to signings and rumour topic… new week, another week his management will say that they will have a decision soon. Lol

The club is a public relations nightmare, big mouths, lunatic mothers, brawling players, criminal charges, the list goes on !

Takes the heat off us for a little while I guess.

If he was playing in a different position there would not be this conversation. The fact is, he is playing in one of the most important positions on the field and it is part of his repertoire that he seems to not have the ability to do. I think if we look across the rest of the teams they all have talkers and organisers in those key positions.

Great post

Let's not invent a new narrative. Sheens has said more than once publicly that he wants Brooks post 2023 on a restructured contract.

isn't that Benji's call?

Wonder what uncle Nick's wedding gift to teddy would be, $500, 000 and your next contract is way under for salary cap spending on more marquee players, help keep suaalii ???

You can get away with a lot as a WEDDING GIFT !!!

Great post

Great post if we’re relating it to the clubs failure in who they select as their 1/2 back.
Not so much when it’s defending imbeciles who insult players and their families from behind the safety of their anonymous keyboard.

Jad, only a complete idiot would not take the most money he could get. That is the clubs problem,not his. His form for the dollars,is questionable, But AD on big dollars , and others do not get a mention, Brooks for all his critics, always gave for 80 minutes, he never dogged it like Mbye , Packer ,the listless Tamu,and a few others.

Wrong.

AD has been criticised by many here, as have other plodders like Tamou and literally every other player you mentioned.

Please also remember the tanking of that final game of 2021 against the Bulldogs. Brooks definitely ‘did his bit’ there, disgraceful effort.

Well ,for once ! You have included other players, unlike some of your ilk. We have been bad all over , except for a few, but they get little mention. I propose a question, Would Munster,Cheese, Cleary. DCE, or any of those, looked great in a Tigers jersey in the last 5 yrs,?
I'm not saying Brooks is great, how he goes this year is 50/50, and you can throw the rest of the side in the same category. We have not a acheived anything yet.
After many , many , hours of perusing games, the coaches have not extended 3 of our key players from last year, and exited others., Then bought 4 new players, it's an 8 player turnaround.
Give them all a chance !

I have never singled out Brooks as the reason we have been poor,however he has been at the club longer than any other player and probably had a larger chunk out of the salary cap than anyone else for much of that.For nearly all of his time here the team has not been very good mainly because of the 2 periods of time when our cap was badly managed (Sheens and then Cleary) and it has taken a long time to rectify it.
This year he needs to show why he should be retained and that applies to a few others as well

According to Sheens, anyone who is signed for 25 and beyond has been authorised by Benji.
