Not sure why. We’re bottom 4 with or without him, better to take that money and sign a player actually worth what he’s on.

We cld find a solution that wld perform equally well for a fraction of the price

Luke Brooks and the Wests Tigers have an awful relationship and need to be separated

The fact the club thinks he's the clubs best player and will do anything to keep him pretty much explains why we haven't made finals in a decade

Wouldn't have lasted 3 years at Melbourne. They'd give him the Croft treatment

We have no depth in the halves going into next season. If we had a superstar junior coming through it might be a different story but given our halves generally play behind a beaten forward pack, it would be like a lamb to the slaughter.

..then buy a dominant middle forward(which we need anyway)!!
If anyone wants to take Brooks off our hands for anything like the ridiculous $$ were paying him...go rite ahead!!
..and with the spare change we'll find a back up half back
Whinging Brooks is poor bang for the buck in our environment...he doesnt wish to be here..we can do better,and deserve better

Who is available? I wouldn't mind seeing Brooks go as much as the next person, but there's not a lot of quality out there. I think the chances of him being moved on increase dramatically at the end of 2022 as he only has 1 year remaining from that point.

Or maybe he’d excel

Brooks is officially now to be known as Bricks please

Maybe, but his football IQ and decision making is just not good enough. Melbourne halfbacks take control and lead their teams around and he just doesn't have that in his game. Maybe at 6 he would be okay but you can't be just okay there.

I’m sure Bellamy would give him the proper education.

Doesn't work if the player just doesn't have the brains for it, look at Croft. We will never know; but I know if he had two seasons like he's just had for us at Storm or Roosters they'd dump him as soon as they can. We award him player of the year and push every possibly suitor away!!

Why is what they would do relevant to us? Your point seems to be we aren’t them. Guess what, neither is almost every other club.

Think Hastings,Douhi and Peachey are our chosen halves.Risk in all ,but they seem to be the lead roles for those 2 positions.Who knows ..?
So we need a back up if two of em go down.
Madden is unproven,and from what weve seen so far..maybe not the final solution.But he'll do a job if need be
Wasnt Talau a no 6 originally..?
The odd man out is clearly Brooks ,the highest paid and least performing ....on roughly $700k,but doesnt warrant a run on slot in any NRL team.And now hes high maintenance as well
See ya

He’s our most experienced half, and we’re going into a season down an option. Tell me again how he’s the odd man out? Also high maintenance how?

A solution that combined with what we are paying him to leave would come in less than what he costs us to keep him?

Well that’s pretty insightful. Ironically, him being the highest paid out of the lot is why he won’t go anywhere

He says that HE is not happy..so why shld we pay a significant premium for him to leave?

Thats becuase no-one else is as silly as US

 

[Craegus]

Would prefer to suffer without Brooks, than with him. He has done nothing for the advancement of the team and on many occasions has actually put us further on the back foot.

Blood Madden and go looking for a replacement when we can. Brooks is not the future so why bother sticking with him if we get a chance to move him on now and then get to use his money elsewhere.

 

[TheDaBoss]

Brooks is due for a big 2022.
2014- Dally M Rookie of the year.
2018- Dally M halfback of the year
2022- ????

Wooden spoon
