Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Boring ! You dont get it ! For 10 years the side has been sliding,, For the last 5 shocking. Lot's of sheep follow the Brooks target, but superman as a half would not have looked better. Is he a great half-no! Is he a decent half - maybe. That all depends on the team around him, and i have not seen a decent team in
I say don't renew him let him go and kick on else where, we just need an organiser with a kicking game. We can build off that. Last week he was caught with the ball on the second last tackle 4 times for a halfback that is diabolical.
 
Nick Politis was interviewed on 2gb sports show 6pm, bloody missed it, finished as I tuned in (((
Do you know for years now he has been buying up all the buildings around East league's club and is giving it all to East when he dies so they can be a power house for years to come

We need to sign Moses & Tuivasa-Scheck shift Brooks to five eighth & Doueihi to centre & that instantly makes us a top 8 team.
Imagine this backline.
Tuivasa-Scheck
Bula
Naden
Doueihi
Tupou
Brooks
Moses

That would gives us an organising halfback a running five eighth two tall fast athletic wingers twpo very tall & skilful centres & an awesome fullback Tigers give them more we need them.
Why would anyone who wants our team to win continue selecting Brooks, When he alone helps us to lose games,
He is so good at it, been doing it for 10 years now.

Not picking but many times brooks has had chances to win alot of close games or put us in a position to win those games .10 yrs is a long time

I agree with both points. Brooks hasn't been a great player or anywhere near it but he has also been in a dud team.

Maybe that has extended his career or maybe it's made him look worse than he is.

I'm pretty confident he isn't the problem though apart from his inflated salary.

This is a dumb statement without stating what did the other guys do when they got in on the 5th. I'll give you the answer - they had their chances and they did nothing.

Sure it's a valid argument it Brooks was Andrew Johns and we were relying on him to win us the game but that makes this same argument null and void. He isn't Andrew Johns and we don't want to be building around Brooks.

I wouldn't renew his contract though either unless he shows us some rare form this season.

Brooks represents exactly what WT are. Pottential but always failing. All the promise and nothing but lip service at the end.
 
I think Mosses will stay at the Eels our camp should be looking at spending those 1.3 million on 2 players not one who can help out big time
Fullback and Centre each player would get $ 650 k plus outside extras or
$ 800 and $ 500 k
a gun and an up and coming gun just outside or first grade at a Better club , they are out there we just need to grab them

No a
 
Hasn't Moses got until May or something to exercise an option to extend with the Eels? He's there for this season anyway. He's likely waiting until his option deadline before committing to anyone beyond 2023. I agree he'll probably stay with the Eels but it does look like he's keeping all his options open until then so I guess we are still a chance.
 
No it's not true, it's an unprovable thought experiment. Rather it may be your opinion that you think we could have won, but there's nothing true about it at all.
You and your absolutes. Absurd.
Did i really need to say that there would be a 99% certainty that we would have won have we had been more organised?

I think the message was clear, and you're being pedantic on absolutes in a forum....
