On another matter I see Nofa injured last week and is out for a few weeks. Sounds like a very convenient injury to me, so he won’t have to front up.

Please cut brooks next year and offer Jack Wighton 3millon over 3 years to play 6 and then we need a good controlling 7 with a good kicking game….UK super league?
Yeah agreed

Purely a thought, Benji Marshall is managed by Aria so I'm sure he is talking to his manager on potential recruits from that stable ( https://www.ariamanagementgroup.com.au/ ). The one I'd be going for is Jayden Campbell.
Another thought is that Crown Sports / Mario Tartak ( https://www.crownsports.com.au/ ) has a number of our young guns in their stable, the Laulilli brothers & Tallyn Da Silva, so I'm sure Benji is trying to maintain a very good relationship there. Talatau Amone is one (police record aside) I'd be discussing as a fresh start.
Both under contract but we have some bargaining chips (Doeuihi, Twal etc).

On present form, Brooks is worth 200k a year or whatever Wakeham is receiving. If we signed an organising half of George Williams' calibre or better, you would consider retaining Brooks on a bargain deal and instructing him to run like Forrest Gump, his only strength. But Doueihi could also play the role of running 6 and he has slightly more bows to his game than Brooks. But they're both limited.

We are already an embarrassment unfortunately
And so it'll continue.
Establish a half decent pack and persist with a proven failure that cannot deliver.
Dark Times.
Fans will walk away by the 1000s.

Our supporters deserve a lot better from Brooks as well.

I know mate we are flogging a dead horse
If true they say that Dodd from st Helen’s is looking to come down under , we need to throw some of that money we were going to throw at Moses , towards him , even if we got to give him $900,000 to $1,000,000 per season, give him 4 years and a year in the club’s favour, this should be down ASAP like a week ago
He once told me that he could never play for Manly. Just saying.

Simple Jack Whighton in Sydney,you would need ten minders to keep him out of trouble. Soon as he hits the turps, he starts throwing punches at who ever is near him. Also good hard footballer but zero organisation skills

Anyone thinking we are a realistic chance of George Williams is dreaming.
Sheens will have a TIA during negotiations and we'll wind up signing Sam Williams.

Why would he come under fire for that? There's nothing wrong with what he said. Wighton is demonstrably a mental and would have issues up here.
It's not as though he's backing a 200 game, 10 season halfback in the worst form of his well below average career. That's demonstrably mental as well... 👀
Wait, are you Jack Wighton?!

By all reports the Tigers are already aware how much Williams transfer fee is, it's pretty pricey but they were waiting for Moses decision. Reckon within a month he will be signed as our half for next year.
