Luke Brooks #167

Don't rugby league journos write better than J K Rowling?
Like, an an occasional fact smothered with sensational, jibbering drivels of pseudo-content.
The ultimate quest is is locate any truth within the narrative.

“World class”…cherry is elite. Brooks goes ok.

Brooks will probably do well as a running 6 at Manly with a controlling half in DCE.

Something our club failed to address for 11 seasons, despite it being as clear as day.

So the Tigers 2 year offer “ in excess of a million” wasnt too far from the mark?

See you later bud

big differenc heaving DCE partner you.in the halves to what we are offering, hello Jock Madden lol

 

[old_man_tiger]

It's a great option for Brooks. He is a decent shot of finals and will have much less pressure outside dce. Plus if he doesn't kick on Manly suffer which is amazing.

Don't mind really, as long as Fainu comes the other way as we are swapping an option that has failed at WT for one that might succeed (and has 15 years ahead of him too).

im just talking about the money…

Some were saying what he was offered by the Tigers was an insult … yet he signs for only $50-100k a year more,,

It's finally happening... he is finally leaving... 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Agreed as he won't have to think just run,the problem will be if DCE gets injured

DCE never gets injuried… he is a Queenslander

Brooks inside Talau, that's gold.
Hopefully it's an immediate release in a swap for another Manly kiddie.

Another Manly kiddie?

Yes - and if he really wanted to stay - the coaches wanted him - it could have easily been sorted.

 

[jadtiger]

For all of has faults and he certainly has some i wish him well and he will have a far better chance of playing finals football at Manly than staying with us and being coached by a man who is 2 decades out of touch

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Good things come to those who wait.

Yep .. in his case probably true.

We have absolutely zero halves that are ready to step up

 

[sparci]

If we have just gotten rid of Talau and Brooks to Manly, with a quality young half in return. Great business. Good luck with Brooksy, can't imagine any Manly fan being ecstatic about that one..

Manly needed a running half who can tackle and that's what he does.I doubt many will be that upset at Manly in getting him if it's true.However we still need an organising half and have done for many years and you can now add a running half to that list as well.

 

[JRDee]

I thought we had him

If only we had of given him a chance this past 11 years..
