Luke Brooks

[Furious1]

I know winning games will make this rubbish go away, but I don’t understand the constant bashing of the club in the media.

Bulldogs have finished well below us for the last 4 years. Same deal with the Cowboys. You hardly hear anything negative about them.

I suppose it’s because of the big supporter base we have but the attacks are relentless and really hurting the club’s ability to attract players.

18 years of mediocrity will do that.

It's more than that it's player managers and media not happy tigers don't pay their player# overs any more clearly have an agend against current decision makers of rhe club

When the guy at the top keeps talking publicly flapping the gums so to speak it just gives them ammunition. I don't disagree that there is an agenda, but it's not something from this year. It's been going on for near a decade (getting worse) and in that time the Chair, CEO, coaches and players have all changed. The only constant is the board. What happened tonight was disrespectful, unnecessary and to be honest gave me the shits however we keep bringing this crap on ourselves. I've been a broken record on this but there is a distinct lack of leadership in this club. The one thing Kent said that is accurate is Wests Tigers still haven't worked out what Wests Tigers is. It's ridiculous after 2 decades to still not have worked it out. Hopefully Sheens can do something, but i won't be holding my breath.

Hoops spilled on NRL 360.

My big question is. Who are these rouge Tigers ‘officials’ that believe that can make recruitment and retention calls between clubs?

What he said is total rubbish. The real question is who leaks this stuff.

What did he say, I don't really watch the talking head shows as I rate my opinion higher than theirs lol

A tigers official called Canberra and said we offer you Luke Brooks and mbye for wighton and Hodgon then they all began to laugh

I just saw it, I don't believe that for a second.

Then the Tigers should engage lawyers, we are constantly portrayed as fools, I’m not sure it’s just a perception.

And sue who?

The people making crap up about them. In this case it was Hooper.

He will just claim a source told him.

Well they just laughed at the organisation on air. Blatant disrespect. And we will do nothing.

What can you do ? Who cares what they think ? You can set a boundary and not listen to it. Simple.

I believe the reputation of the club stinks. And we continue to miss out on players so it’s a problem. I wish I didn’t care to be honest.

Mate it's deliberate player managers are holding back on us to get more control of the club

Wouldn’t you?

I want Hastings to replace Mbye, not Brooks.

I want Hastings to replace Williams at Canberra. Keep him away from WTs.

Why?

A proven disruptive influence in the sheds.

Agree to disagree.

Also a proven positive influence on a couple of teams in the sheds in ESL, his teammates love him. The guy has grown.

We need leadership from players in the spine and he brings it.

Good. Let the ESL have him and continue to love him.

He’s coming, he’s one of Madge’s best signings, you’ll see.

Better than AD, Luc & Laurie ? Sounds good to me. I'm not getting my hopes up that much but that would be tops.

He's a leader on the field and in the sheds its what we need

 

[Demps]

90% of me thinks Hooper just made it up.

10% of me thinks someone at the club made it up to see who is leaking.

Either way, it is 100% made up.

Hoops is a weird guy.

Anyone know his history?

I feel like he's trying to find somewhere to belong.
Thinks rugby league is it... except I don't think he's very welcomed.

A couple of the media outlets have confirmed that anything Wests Tigers related drives clicks and thus revenue.

He said a “tigers official” called up the raiders and offer Brooks and Mbye for Hodgson and Wighton.

Monday night Hooper called out Buzz about the same story

Tonight Hooper made out it was his scoop

Hooper is a shit stain

Bingo..

Sorry to disappoint..Mr Pooper..

Brooks has no plans to leave and the Club has no plans to move him on..

Crawley needs a smack in the mouth as well ..
The last decent footy journalism I read was in the rubgy league week back in the 80’s

Don't you miss the days of a proper game report that actually explained what happened in the game?

Seems like things change every day in rugby league lately.

People say the media lie but clubs and coaches routinely lie to their fans every year. Can't trust anything until it's official news haha

Scary part is we just won a half 32-6

sheens making his mark

Is Sheens in Quarantine?

assume so, think he got his flight to Aus last week

Think he's in the UK - bumped

 

[bigsiro]

This releasing Brooks crap would be like cutting off one's nose to spite their face.

I would no longer support WT if they were so stupid as to carry out such stupidity.

Keeping Brooks is the stupidity.
I’d rather play with 12 men tbh. He is such a bloody liability.

Threatening your support like this just makes you sound fickle . Which you aren’t formerguest.
Come on mate.

New low on 360 until the club sues we are going to continue to get pot shots

I'm done with 360

Don't think it's possible to sue but I'm sure if Hartigan was specifically named (as the person in contact with Raiders) and is in current negotiations and lost out due to this misleading or inaccurate information then perhaps there's something in it(??). Maybe. Then again I'm just hoping something will finally shut their gobs up.
