To our detriment IMO.
What happens if he is still proves to be a dud?
Will Moses be the next guy to cop the blame for Brooks poor games because he overcalls him ... like Benji, Robbie etc?
Will the new pack get the blame for not being as good as we thought they would be and letting him down?
Or will Sheens get the blame (like every previous coach) for not being able to get the best out of him?
If he does stay I pray the other blokes in the team are good enough to pull the anchor, that's been holding us down, back up from the seabed.
The only thing in defence of signing him is he won't be playing halfback if Moses comes and, the reality is, he's much better where he doesn't have to run the team.
Also, just where does he go if AD kills it at 5/8 this year and totally outplays him?
If we sign Brooks for 3+ years before he has proved himself to be worth the extension, or just because his manager uses him as a bait to get Moses, the club will be a laughing stock ... again.
PS If they sign him now for 3+ years to play halfback, without Moses coming, they are imbeciles.
