Nathan Cleary

Brooks to roosters in 2020 as Cronks replacement. Back with his old roommate. Watch the rorters make that happen . Meanwhile we sit on our hands.

We need to upgrade and extend Brooks now!

NC is a quality player no doubt but **gee i would like to see Brooks running game behind a pack like the panthers**

Think Brooks would've carved the shark's up in that 2nd half yet Cleary has no real impact at all

Yep…me too....NC isnt what we need...we need powerful forwards and speeeeed out wide

We do need some powerful forwards

And NC? Maybe, maybe not

I'm just a bit worried though with some rumours of late that now the panthers are out we may name Merrin or Tamau as signings

I don'tthink they are the forwards we need

Kikau yes but that's not going to happen
 
If sign Cleary for 1m per season if Reynolds could be moved on otherwise it’s overlaoding the cap in the halves. We’d be cactus with a weak pack and unable to sign Brooks, Liddle, Marsters to new deals.

Nathan Cleary 1.2mill. …Luke Brooks 600k...I wonder..

Brooks for 600k. Invest the extra funds that would be used for NC on a powerful forward imo

We won't be getting him for that again.

I agree, it'll be 700k or just over it I was to guess.

I’m sure Brooks signed for 400k - basically he was the last man standing in the so-called BIG 4 and playing terrible back then.. in any case he lifted significantly this year and can build on that now - give him 750k at least, chuck in a Block Monopoly game for Luke and he may well end up with an apartment in St Kilda to boot!
We have cut so many players so we have plenty in the coffers…

It's a no brainer isn't it. We need some forwards like Kikau and backs like Waqa Blake. We would be a lot better team with either of those two in our team than with NC.

Kikau and David Fifita in the second row would be a dream! However, at this stage I'd settle for Tamou up front and Hetherington in the backrow, alongside Matterson to bolster our pack.

Poor Rowdy .. :frowning:
 
Id still take Nathan. Gould and Ivan have placed a ridiculous amount of pressure on the kid with all the talk and media focus the last couple of months.

Once the dust settles he will keep improving.
 
Late in the game he kept trying to take on the forward, running fast and straight. It was a very good sign. Players that arent up to it run sideways and go away from their game.
