Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

There is a hazy rumour floating around that Ricky Stuart has inquired about Luke Brooks availability to replace George Williams in Canberra.

Not sure on reliability, source has 50% hit rate. But one worth watching if it develops. By that I mean, watching Brooks out the door.

There was an enquiry by Wigan to see if they could get George Williams immediately and suggested a three way swap with Hastings moving to the Tigers, Brooks to Canberra and Williams to Wigan. I believe it was nothing more than an enquiry/suggestion which was shot down.

Stuart would make Brooks cry.

I saw Joe Tapine last year around this time.
Asked him if he'd ever consider the tigers.

... he said yes.

He was hitting some sprints at my local track when COVID kicked off.

Worth a chat.....

One of my mates who coaches in Souths junior reps met him last year and has remained in touch - reckons he's one of the nicest people you could ever meet.

Yeah, I was surprised to see him and his wife and their dog in my area of all places.

Can confirm, super nice.
He'd be great for our pack.
He's an experienced player but still pretty young.

Sign him up Madge.

Actually Wicky is probably exactly what Brooks needs.

It would make for interesting sideline vision

Someone on the T V suggested it on one of the Sports shows.

Take a good look at Brad Arthur's son this weekend.
This kid can play.
I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to entice him away from Parra would it?

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Could we see a three way player swap on our hands?
Not sure if everyone agrees, however...

Jackson Hastings > Wests Tigers
George Williams > Wigan Warriors
Luke Brooks > Canberra Raiders

Won't happen this year. Who knows what might happen in November though 🤷‍♂️

Another bloke with the skills , but lacks that extra yard of pace to be a top quality half

To be fair he's a kid fresh out of high school. He's got a lot of training and development to do.

Actually BB I'll go the extra step ...in this modern game , if you don't have an above adequate running game you won't succeed

And to take it to the next step ..if Sterling or Langer were trying to crack the modern game ...ignoring the size issues ...they wouldn't make it
