Luke Brooks #167

[crazycat]

I just hope Manly record Luke Brooks as he enters the change rooms for the first time. I can't wait till Siebold tells DCE to move over at Halfback!

*I said Siebold tells DCE, because Brooks will never tell a player to move in his life.

Will Brooks have a welcome banner to run through?

 

[BalmainJnr]

Reckon Luke will score his first 7 tries in a game in his first outing against us.

Send Sheens an email and ask him

In recent news, Tigers management sacked another coach and no one applied for the job, they hired Fulton without consulting the "coaches" they found under the lounge cushions and lowballed and lost their decent half when there is no replacement available that is half as good.

I am betting tigers will find a way to finish 18th out of 17 teams in 2024.. Dumbasses.

They are their own level of shitness. The comp has never seen such incompetence. It’s a great laugh really 🤣
What will these wacky dunderheads do next? Probably burn down the COE presenting Sheens his birthday cake containing 73 candles.

Yeah cause that half was bringing in astronomical results. Wake up, worse case we stay exactly where we are. Wasn't gonna improve with Brooks at the helm.

 

[Tucker]

You and everyone who thinks like you don’t have an answer when pressed on our even worse record without him. Blame him all you like it really doesn’t faze me, what’s the reason we lose when he’s not playing? Hint: Maybe it’s the shit roster.

Is the record worse without him?
Has someone crunched those numbers?
I’d be surprised if it’s that much different…

 

[innsaneink]

Serious question here, are you expecting the reply to make sense?

No... After reading the reply
Waste of time

 

[Siberian Kitten]

I wouldn't abuse the guy but he was on elite pay while giving journeyman performances for years. Imagine the difference if Luke:

1) actually gave value for money, or

2) was paid his worth, allowing Tigers to upgrade the rest of the squad.

We are where we are due to that steep contract, Cleary's disastrous long term signings and Madge's pedestrian coaching.

Well according to Sheens that’s what the fans supposedly think Brooks should do every game. He’ll finally be living up to our lofty expectations!

 

[mikey]

Brooks will most likely do well at Manly and I hope he does. What really ticks me off is that our coaches and even Brooks himself couldn’t see that the WT/Brooks relationship was beyond stale and needed to be sorted out BEFORE this season started, choosing instead to offload Hastings, publicly declare their support for Brooks long term and hinging everything on building a new team around him. Not 6 months later and everyone wants out, what a waste of a season 😞

On another note, I wonder why Manly has signed Jacob Arthur and now Brooks? How many halves do they need unless they have plans for playing either Arthur or Brooks in another position altogether?

Where does their fat 5/8 that they just resigned fit in?

 

[tig_prmz]

Am I right in saying Manly has DCE, Schuster, Arthur, Cooper John's and now Brooks as well all on the books for 2024?

Manly have two genuine NRL halves in DCE and Brooks. Manly obviously believe Schuster is better suited to another position. Arthur and Cooper are NSW Cup.

That’s the depth tigers should be striving for.

Let's Remember this is a 4 year deal and DCE is 34 already

Lets come back and talk in 2 seasons

Currently also have Fainu on the books also.

 

[Spartan117]

Lightning does strike twice

Back ended Contract at the Tigers and 4 years at Manly.

 

[Telltails]

Surely Sheens and Benji saw this coming. Reportedly wanted out last year till Sheens blocked it, said himself that he would be selfish witn his next contract yet they still made it known that he was in their plans and then - surprise turns down their offer
Now we currently have no FG standard halves at the club. Wouldnt it have been nice for a change for the club to be on the front foot and have a replacement signed first instead of now looking like we are scrambling.

To be fair, the they have tried to be on the front foot in signing a 7. They have attempted to get Moses, Williams, Trindall and most likely others. They just can land anyone.
