Imagine getting someone better
Doubtful - we extended him because he was playing good football (forgotten quickly here) Cronk was on his way out - JT was gone… there weren’t halves cropping up everywhere - there still isn’t.If there was ever a time to cut him loose, it would have been before his last re-signing. Certainly not now that halfbacks are as scarce as Tigers with no claws.
I dunno.... I'm not a recruitment officer, but I do know other clubs often can improve their rosters so it's not an impossible thing to doIt'd be awesome but who ?
Agree except for Laurie. I hope he's a good half because I don't think he's a good fullback.I think Brooks should move on and take a massive pay cut to go to another system. If I was advicing him, I would be happy to lose $300k a season to play 14 at Storm.
From our perspective, there isn't anyone better than Brooks in the market. 6. Douehi, 7. Hastings leaves us with no depth. Even if we were to buy an average halfback like an Aiden Sezer or someone, we would be paying him $350k at least plus whatever Brooks' left over costs are.
It's just not worth it.
6. Douehi
7. Brooks
13. Hastings
Let's hope we make this combo work. Otherwise,
6. Douehi
7. Hastings
14. Brooks
Laurie, Api, Brooks, Hastings and Douehi. These guys are in the 17 for almost every team in the comp. Let's build the club around them. That's our 1,6,7,9,13- at their best, these guys shouldn't get the spoon again.
Anyone except Brooks fits that category.It'd be awesome but who ?
Expenditure to outcome. Worst player in the joint venture history
Worst player in history for the $Expenditure to outcome. Worst player in the joint venture history
Worst player in history for the $
Worst half in history for the $ returnNo way at it's not even close.
Mbye, Reynolds and Packer.
Brooks has been decent value until now. Now he is overpaid. Brooks though isn't even in the top 50.
The hyperbole against Brooks is hilarious.

🥾 the imp
So you say brooks is no good but in the same sentence you say he’s a first grader 😂At least it's somewhat qualified.
Still way off. Brooks may not be good but I reckon he is a first grader. He is nowhere near a marquee half and I'm pretty sure we are paying him that money next year. He is rarely injured. Up until next year he was decent value.
The big realistic question to me is if we can downgrade his pay to more like 600k for the next 3 seasons is that acceptable or do we wear his contract next year and let him go.
There is no way he is a million dollar player. There is no way Doueihi is a 650k player though.
Those guys are on massive overs.
I wouldn't pay Moses or Dylan Brown anywhere near a million and they are both better than AD and Brooks based on performances.

Get off the fence EarlThat isn't what I said at all.

Who was responsible for Brooks getting a million plus next year...UnbelieveableAt least it's somewhat qualified.
