Brooks under a good coach is what is required, under cleary he was halfback of the year 2018 and Sheens is a better coach than cleary. Not many halves on the market hence Newcastle are desperate to sign Brooks.
Wingers are a dime a dozen let nofo go if you have to, to only have 200k of Brooks salary on the books from 2024 onwards would be very very good and sound cap management
I think it's a massive cop out blaming the coach for the players poor form. We can't just let Nofo go. We've overpaid him. I'm sure we'd happily let him go but no clubs are going to offer his contract value.
Same as Brooks but Brooks only has one season left. If he re-signs on lesser dollars which would be closer to market value plus we get some cap benefit he might be worth it but in reality we are are splitting the long term player allowance between him and Nofo.
