Once the spin doctors have finished his makeover, CK will provide reports of him walking on Lake Illawarra. And if that doesn't occur it will be Brooks' fault.

It's Brooks fault we are signing him, if Brooks had done what he said he was going to do every year we wouldn't be buying him, we would be settled in the halves and wouldn't need him
 
What ? You’ve lost the plot ! Why are you death riding our halfback ? I don’t see anyone denigrating Hastings . If you think Hastings is the saviour , then I’ve got bad news for you . The team needs to lift around the spine collectively , which will happen as the game time they play together increases . And that includes Brooks. . If the club decides to move him on , then Madden not Hastings should be the one to get the nod . Hastings is NOT a halfback . You’re so Enamaouted with dumping our halfback , that you somehow have twisted it in your head that your being victimised . It’s actually impressive how you’ve done that . A little scary , with the lack of reasonable thought , but impressive none the less .

Enamaouted?

For those questioning his **commitment and attitude** after reading what his current bosses at Wigan said about him then here's some quotes from the Salford coach and management...


So let me get this straight ... you’re confirming his commitment by his tenure at 2 super league clubs
... one he left after one and a half seasons, and the other after signing an NRL contract midway through his 2nd club?

Yep sounds really committed to me.

What was your favourite fairy tale to read as a kid?

He’s not a kid anymore.
Maybe you still are.

I bet you enjoyed the BJ and Roberts fluff articles ... can’t wait for the same with Hastings.

Well aren’t you the negative Nancy!

This clubs awful recruitment apart from the odd diamond in the roughies might make some people feel that way about these type of signings

I’m glad you accept mediocrity though. I think we can aim higher that’s all

I think you made your point .... over and over again.
Now give us all a rest and pick another item as your favourite target.

Lol jog on flop

Knock it off or you can have a break for a week.

Ok xxx love you

I did warn you...

Naden held talks with Barrett yesterday, doggies are keen apparently according to Brent Read

Nice Tigers should learn from signing Jet.We take too many risks with recruitment.

I'd throw money at Staggs but seems unlikely we get him. Honestly I would take Will Hopoate for cheap as well, we need a solid centre who defends well and does his job.

We've lots of young talent coming through like Ogden. Hopoate would block their progression.

We need two good centres for next year. Sure the kids have talent but you can't have a team of rookies, we definitely need to keep investing in our juniors but you need to sign players from elsewhere too. Ogden isn't even on a development deal at the moment

Only problem with Hopoate is he's sooo slow, and our backline is full of slugs as it is.

Yeah he's definitely slow, he's a good defender and has good hands though. Definitely not perfect though. I'm a big fan of Seb Kris and Adam Pompey

Really good defender and safe as houses. Just really slow. I'm concerned by the lack of quality players off contract and our roster heading into 2022.

Think outside backs are the big concern. A quality second rower would be real nice too but hopefully Blore kills it and solves that problem. Nowadays you have to sign players well in advance otherwise you risk them going elsewhere.

Will be flamed for it but i'd bring back Woodsy on the cheap to be honest. I know he's widely maligned on here but he's still a quality forward imo. Also concerned about lock but perhaps Hastings solves that problem. Outside backs are our biggest concern. We need a good winger and at least one centre.

Not a bad shout...gain some money on the Packer contract and divert it to the outside backs.

I'm watching the Naden talk closely...the guy can score tries. Straight in for Leilua.

Does Roberts offer better value on the wing? I just feel with his pace, he could turn half chances into tries...not sure how he goes under the high ball though. There seems to be a lack of wingers, but a heap of centres off contract...Might be easier to jag a centre than a winger in the current market - plus we have Talau and some others capable in reserves?

If we get naden we could run with
wing
Nofo
Roberts

centres
Naden
Mmbye

Roberts is not a winger.

Will Hopoate is possibly the worst performing centre in the NRL. He butchered two tries on the weekend and stands like a statue not tackling. I watch Dogs games unfortunately with mates he’s terrible.

Will Hopoate is possibly the worst performing centre in the NRL. He butchered two tries on the weekend and stands like a statue not tackling. I watch Dogs games unfortunately with mates he’s terrible.

I don't think he's that bad. Certainly not the player he was but he'd do a job in a stronger team - which ultimately isn't us. His attack has definitely gone downhill
 
My biggest concern with chasing Naden is that he is another risky buy like BJ and Roberts. Naden may come good, but more often than not at our club, the player underperforms and we end up regretting it.

I get the cupboard is pretty bare, and we are desperate to get a quality centre/winger now as our youth develops, but wonder if another up and down sometimes great sometimes ordinary centre is the way to go.

But if you don't trust in the direction that the clubs leader is taking you, then you can never win, as even if you're right and it was a mistake, you lose. So I'm backing our recruitment in making the right decision, (even though our history is frankly terrible), and hoping if he comes he smashes it and becomes a regular NSW centre.

Danny Weidler reporting Hastings returning to the NRL next year with Tigers front runners to sign him.

We'd be the only runners. Seriously if this true, our recruitment has reached a new low. I believed Joey Leilua to be right down there.

Why would Hastings be a new low?

I informed a friend of mine. He and his family have links to Illawarra footy. His first comment is why do some coaches believe they are the exception when others have failed (in relation to recruiting players who have a history)? This is the same gentleman who pointed out a young 16 year old Ryan Girdler as a future star. I listen when someone of that background makes comment.

No offence intended mate but I dont think we should entirely write off this potential signing based on your mate who has connections to Illawarra footy.

No offence taken. But if we are considering or have signed Hastings, I despair for our club and its future.

What did Hastings actually do? No one has ever said. He also seems to have matured a lot after being exiled.

Blow up witb DCE and most of the other players in the team was the last thing I remember. He didn't seem to get along with many people wherever he went.

Blow up with DCE wow didn't see that coming

And this is what I mean. He's essentially been run out of the country based on a bad attitude at this point. I assume he did something really nasty off field that has been ignored or covered up because he's a nobody

He was only 22 at the time and some young men do not mature as quickly as others. If ruffling the feathers of a few ego's is the worst he has done I think he is probably entitled some leeway. His price tag would be thing I am most concerned about. He is still relatively in proven here.

Nothing wrong with hating Manly players.
The blokes who don’t want him are scared he’ll show Brooks up.

The Brooks fan club are so worried we will have a number 7 that madge can use if Brooks don’t deliver that they are using any reason to talk down this signing.

What ? You’ve lost the plot ! Why are you death riding our halfback ? I don’t see anyone denigrating Hastings . If you think Hastings is the saviour , then I’ve got bad news for you . The team needs to lift around the spine collectively , which will happen as the game time they play together increases . And that includes Brooks. . If the club decides to move him on , then Madden not Hastings should be the one to get the nod . Hastings is NOT a halfback . You’re so Enamaouted with dumping our halfback , that you somehow have twisted it in your head that your being victimised . It’s actually impressive how you’ve done that . A little scary , with the lack of reasonable thought , but impressive none the less .

You need help. My 12 year old daughter has more IQ and rationale then you. Once again you plant false statements and accusations to make your point. I don’t know if that makes you feel good about yourself but if your lonely don’t take it out on me. Show me where I’m death riding our halfback. I’ve actually just stated in another post after the Rabbitohs game that our spine should be given time to gel and work together. Where did I say Hastings will be our saviour? I don’t think any player in the club is putting pressure on Brooks and that includes Madden. Have you been watching our NSW cup team? So if Hastings is here , then yes I’m happy that Brooks will be looking over his shoulder. Nothing would please me more then Brooks turning into a champion because that means tigers will be winning. But if he doesn’t then we need to have options. If Hastings is here as a lock I’m happy with that aswell. And my favourite , I’m “being victimised” what the hell are you on lol. It’s a forum , people will have different opinions then me and you, get a grip on yourself.

??? You chop and change so much it’s hard to keep up . My message is the same as it always has been .
I’m going to back brooks to hilt , whilst the club backs him , and he wants to be here . When that day comes , and it will at some point , whether he’s Johns 2.0 or Ben Black , single gamer , then I will back whoever the heir apparent is . That’s it .

I’m sick of reading the same garbage , by the same people . It’s beyond repetitive, nasty , and for the most part boring .

When there’s some kind of actual change to the status quo , then go for your life . But this is it for the foreseeable future . Stop retreading old ground .

It’s non of your business what I write or don’t write. It’s a forum , you don’t like my opinion then don’t read it. There are many others on here that have stronger opinions on Brooks then me yet you seem to follow me around like a bad smell. I’m not obsessed with Brooks the person like you are. My opinion of him will constantly change depending on how he plays. If he takes ownership of his team and gets us some wins then I will be his biggest fan. If he doesn’t then I will be the first to call for changes.

LOL you have mental health issues dude . I’m literally replying to your comment about “the brooks fan club” , and how monotonous the things your saying are . Yea you have the right to say things , abs I have the right to tell you to change the subject it’s boring . Like right now in the signings thread .
Just let sleeping dogs lie . It’s tiring how every thread turns into something about brooks , and guys like me feel compelled to defend the kid . Let’s just celebRate the Hastings signing .

your a nut case. One minute your accusing me of continuously changing my mind and next minute I’m monotonous. I will call a spade a spade whether you like or or not. Now shu fly

Pretty sure that’s not how you spell shoo .

Teach me how to spell mr Enamaouted. Now shu fly lol lol

what path is WTs being lead down? We keep on signing problematic players and are second last on

Whats the point of a new coach? You are then starting again - new philosophies, styles etc. WT need stability and it is going to take time. This is the first year you could say Maguire has his own roster (barring Mbye and Packer). Every one of us tigers fans wants to win.....its been a tough 10 years.....but it is moving in the right direction.

Because we're afraid of change? If it is not working we need to confront the problem. Changing the coach while keeping in place all our Football Dept and coaching/support staff results in one appointment change.

Well lets Actually Change!

I hate "its the Coaches fault". Which Coach? McGuire, Sheens, Taylor or Potter. If we change, who would you take? Dean Pay, Ivan Henjak or risk it on Jason Ryles?
^None of the above are going to be a positive change!

Unless either Wayne Bennett or Craig Bellamy become free, forget changing the coach. Even then I could see Wayne or Craig failing here.

Why?

We dont build strong. We have had some of the most talented Juniors fly through here. Our vision seems to be this year and no further!

How many years has Defense the big D been an issue? Ok whos defensive coach?
Brooks, most talented Nr7 talked up as much as Nathan Cleary. Not meeting hype, ok whos ensuring he reaches potential?

Our long term plan is 2021. We have rebuilt our team year after year without a thought past 1 year. But hey lets do our 10th Rebuild, hire a new coach and recruit promissing talent that doesnt work out again.

Danny Weidler reporting Hastings returning to the NRL next year with Tigers front runners to sign him.

We'd be the only runners. Seriously if this true, our recruitment has reached a new low. I believed Joey Leilua to be right down there.

Why would Hastings be a new low?

I informed a friend of mine. He and his family have links to Illawarra footy. His first comment is why do some coaches believe they are the exception when others have failed (in relation to recruiting players who have a history)? This is the same gentleman who pointed out a young 16 year old Ryan Girdler as a future star. I listen when someone of that background makes comment.

No offence intended mate but I dont think we should entirely write off this potential signing based on your mate who has connections to Illawarra footy.

No offence taken. But if we are considering or have signed Hastings, I despair for our club and its future.

What did Hastings actually do? No one has ever said. He also seems to have matured a lot after being exiled.

Blow up witb DCE and most of the other players in the team was the last thing I remember. He didn't seem to get along with many people wherever he went.

Blow up with DCE wow didn't see that coming

And this is what I mean. He's essentially been run out of the country based on a bad attitude at this point. I assume he did something really nasty off field that has been ignored or covered up because he's a nobody

He was only 22 at the time and some young men do not mature as quickly as others. If ruffling the feathers of a few ego's is the worst he has done I think he is probably entitled some leeway. His price tag would be thing I am most concerned about. He is still relatively in proven here.

Nothing wrong with hating Manly players.
The blokes who don’t want him are scared he’ll show Brooks up.

The Brooks fan club are so worried we will have a number 7 that madge can use if Brooks don’t deliver that they are using any reason to talk down this signing.

What ? You’ve lost the plot ! Why are you death riding our halfback ? I don’t see anyone denigrating Hastings . If you think Hastings is the saviour , then I’ve got bad news for you . The team needs to lift around the spine collectively , which will happen as the game time they play together increases . And that includes Brooks. . If the club decides to move him on , then Madden not Hastings should be the one to get the nod . Hastings is NOT a halfback . You’re so Enamaouted with dumping our halfback , that you somehow have twisted it in your head that your being victimised . It’s actually impressive how you’ve done that . A little scary , with the lack of reasonable thought , but impressive none the less .

You need help. My 12 year old daughter has more IQ and rationale then you. Once again you plant false statements and accusations to make your point. I don’t know if that makes you feel good about yourself but if your lonely don’t take it out on me. Show me where I’m death riding our halfback. I’ve actually just stated in another post after the Rabbitohs game that our spine should be given time to gel and work together. Where did I say Hastings will be our saviour? I don’t think any player in the club is putting pressure on Brooks and that includes Madden. Have you been watching our NSW cup team? So if Hastings is here , then yes I’m happy that Brooks will be looking over his shoulder. Nothing would please me more then Brooks turning into a champion because that means tigers will be winning. But if he doesn’t then we need to have options. If Hastings is here as a lock I’m happy with that aswell. And my favourite , I’m “being victimised” what the hell are you on lol. It’s a forum , people will have different opinions then me and you, get a grip on yourself.

??? You chop and change so much it’s hard to keep up . My message is the same as it always has been .
I’m going to back brooks to hilt , whilst the club backs him , and he wants to be here . When that day comes , and it will at some point , whether he’s Johns 2.0 or Ben Black , single gamer , then I will back whoever the heir apparent is . That’s it .

I’m sick of reading the same garbage , by the same people . It’s beyond repetitive, nasty , and for the most part boring .

When there’s some kind of actual change to the status quo , then go for your life . But this is it for the foreseeable future . Stop retreading old ground .

It’s non of your business what I write or don’t write. It’s a forum , you don’t like my opinion then don’t read it. There are many others on here that have stronger opinions on Brooks then me yet you seem to follow me around like a bad smell. I’m not obsessed with Brooks the person like you are. My opinion of him will constantly change depending on how he plays. If he takes ownership of his team and gets us some wins then I will be his biggest fan. If he doesn’t then I will be the first to call for changes.

LOL you have mental health issues dude . I’m literally replying to your comment about “the brooks fan club” , and how monotonous the things your saying are . Yea you have the right to say things , abs I have the right to tell you to change the subject it’s boring . Like right now in the signings thread .
Just let sleeping dogs lie . It’s tiring how every thread turns into something about brooks , and guys like me feel compelled to defend the kid . Let’s just celebRate the Hastings signing .

your a nut case. One minute your accusing me of continuously changing my mind and next minute I’m monotonous. I will call a spade a spade whether you like or or not. Now shu fly

Pretty sure that’s not how you spell shoo .

Teach me how to spell mr Enamaouted. Now shu fly lol lol

Do you two know each other ?

They have a 3 year incentive offer on the table, & are willing to let DWZ along with others go. Hopefully the Tigers pickup a player like Fatailer Mariner subsedised.
