I don’t think Nathan is coming. I know Ivan is wearing two hats as a coach and a father but I think this is how he will see it. As a father, he’ll want Nathan to look after himself and get th best possible deal at the club that best suits him. As a coach, as great as the kid is, he isn’t a necessity for us, when you look at our forwards. He might be a player we want, but he isn’t one we need.

He’s also overrated.

Ash Taylor Over rated or just over rated..?

Nathan won't be coming until he sees the basis of a forward pack that can get the job done EVERY week

So roosters out of the running with Robbo extending for four years…..

Broncos? Penrith? Or tigers for the Clearys?

Roosters were never in the running. Nathan will either stay at the Panthers or the Tigers will snare him IMO.

He'll stay at panthers.. Meet up with the old man further along the track.

Gee penrith fans change their tune quickly lol

About a month ago they were adamant he would stay a panther for life. Now this news of ivan wanting him for 2020 they are happy to let him go, some even saying they want Brooks and how Brooks is the far superior player anyway

Smells like the Maloney / Moylan swap from last year .

I'm not convinced he is that much better than Brooks - particularly the way Brooks has been playing this year.

Nathan’s goalkicking tips it his way though

Come on fellas brooks is playing well but he isnt anywhere near the player cleary is.
 
Brooks Is A Keeper.

He has played in a defeated / politically disabled / personality driven team for years.

He would be a Gun with a better team and a better coach.

We finally have the Coach and a an improving club culture thats flowing into the plyers we have.

I want clearyJr and brooks together. J Renolds is the odd man out (nothing personal). He hasnt been available for much of 2018 and we havent really suffered for that fact.
 
I wanted to beat the crap out of Brooks last season but he has stepped up big time in defence and attack. I think Nathan has deteriorated since the knee injury - possibly resumed too early, seems to have s strange gate when running.
 
If I were the club I’d have front loaded Reynolds this year with the extra salary cap we had so that it minimises his cost to the team towards back end of his contract.

That way if we do get NC we can shop Reynolds to SL which he has stated he is open to or at least he won’t be affecting our cap as much.
 
We need both,Brooks has speed, that Cleary doesn’t have. Also Cleary is likely to be playing SOO for a few years and we need a quality half during that 6 week window. I like the idea of Brooks and Cleary playing 6 and 7
 
Did anyone else hear on Talkinsport just before the 5pm news, some guy called up saying that NC has signed with the Broncos for 1.2m and dad will join him. Said & I quote “heard it from the horses mouth” & “all will come out in the next 3 weeks”.
The guy obviously has had a few to drink and seemed a little emotional as he is a WT fan.
