Jackson Hastings #251

[Geo]

I expect to see Hastings at the club in the coming weeks.


I hope Im wrong but Williams to Wigan, Brooks to Canberra and Hastings to Tigers has a certain logic to it.

Why would Brooks need to go to Canberra Wests Tigers have roster spots and cap space to accommodate Hastings..


I dont know anything, but I can imagine a scenario where Canberra want to get rid of Williams, Tigers want Hastings, Williams wants to go home to Wigan...

Canberra will let him go if they can get a replacement they are happy with (Brooks), Wigan will let Hastings go if they can get a replacement they are happy with (Williams) and Tigers will let Brooks go.

In that scenario, all three parties would have to know and the first domino to drop would be Williams immediate release. If Tigers didnt let Brooks go, Canberra dont let Williams go and the whole thing doesnt work.

Not saying this is what is happening, just I can see the logic in it (I dont see Hastings as a suitable replacement for Brooks...yet).

Well given the state at the moment I don’t think moving on a player who can actually Defend tat an NRL standard is a good idea..but that’s me

Im with you.

So we dont want Hastings immediately if the rumour is true that Brooks is off to the raiders because Brooks is such a great defender? Really! If so, I'll say he is solid at best. Certainly not in broken play including last game

New boy here has been gracious enough to let us know when we are boring him in other threads, Im not sure how the public forum made it prior to the last 15 days but we are lucky now to have him to guide us......

Back on topic. Is Brooks worth keeping for his defence over Hastings if this rumour is true? That Hastings is coming immediately

We have 2 roster spots and cap space available for Hastings immediately without releasing anyone..

I'm not Brooks biggest fan ,but we have two roster spots open. Not sure why we'd move Brooks on if Hastings does arrive early...


Edit. Geo said it.

Good point. The insinuation of the rumour mill, i gather, is that we want Brooks gone. I'd take Hastings and be done with it ... or release Mybe if we secure Hastings. Unlikely it will change our fate this year.

 

[Cairnstigers]

I don't think Brooks will be going anywhere just yet
I think we will need to see what we get with Hastings 1st
But then again I thought we were Signing him as a lock
I would like to see Brooks and Doueihi given more time together before we contemplate releasing Brooks to another club

We don't want Brooks gone

lol Hastings was the name thrown about. It could have been anyone half decent. The reasons people wanted Brooks dropped weren't about two games. People had rightfully questioned whether after 150 and zero top 8 placings he was the guy. Don't let facts get in the way of a win though!

Do you think DCE is better? How does he look without Turbo? The strike weapons make a half look good or bad. Brook's created many opportunities yesterday that were wasted by his team mates.

A half controlling the middle is doing a specific job. He decides if the team should attack up the middle or to get the ball wide to a playmaker or strike player on a side if see sees an advantage in numbers. He is not there to singlehandedly win the match.



Ok so now its his outside men who let him down.

Love these type of comments lol.

The DCE point is salient however. DCE plays the games of his life in Origin, can't remotely back it up at club level because his team is thin. **Manly close to one of the worst teams going around in 2021.**

This comment has not aged well.

A Turbo makes all the difference

Well exactly - one of the worst teams going around, until the best player in the league comes back in.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

hopefully we can move Mmbye and play Brooks and Hastings in the halves
