If this team extends Brooks, I am done.

D O N E.

Why? Been consistently in our top 4-5 players and can tackle. We have to keep some players.

No club in the NRL would let a halfback stick around for a decade without making the finals. Once his deal is up, he has to leave. Time to move on

It’s a 17 man game and the club can’t sign players. Brooks is not the problem

He is one of the majors. Been through what 4 coaches now ? Still has no voice on or off the field. There’s a reason Hastings is coming next season.

Only Tigers would stick with a halfback who's never shown any leadership or game management in like 8 years of being at the club and never made finals. He's not the only problem and he's a solid player but jeez we should try something different at some point!

Yeh, how about we try assembling a semi-decent squad around him for a change.

Will that suddenly improve his game management and long kicking? I don't mind him as a player but he's been the same player for 8 years.

Andrew Johns couldn’t manage a game when you’re down 0-40 at half time. You have to be in the game first.

Maybe sign a rep player or two to give him a hand against all the other teams with rep players??

Doueihi isn’t struggling to stand out and show some leadership. Look what the Roosters done to Kyle, we need to do the same to Brooks

Roosters had Sam Walker running around in reserves. We don’t have a better 7 at the club. When we have one, happy to let Brooks go.

Brooks is contracted until 2023 on good money can't see him looking to get out of his contract and do WT'S want to contribute 2 years towards a contract at another club.

Unless he sees the Raiders pack and has fantasies about playing off the likes of Papalii , Whitehead and Hudson Young’s momentum, you could hardly blame him.

The only thing Canberra's got going for it at the moment is that it's Covid free

Because he’s a dud who couldn’t organise a chook raffle.

Pascoe?

i’ve been told lomax has removed the dragons from his bio and unfollowed them on instagram. mbye might be heading there before the august 1 deadline so could be a swap. my mbye-lomax suggestion might come to fruition 👀

Have we truly entered an era where "unfollowing" signals, in people's mind, a player club change? And people are actually monitoring who players follow and unfollow?

I mean, of course it's possible, but ever since Curtis Rona "liked" Tigers I've pretty much ignored reading of the tea leaves of social media.

 

[Needaname]

Like Egan. Goes well. If Garner has one foot out I hope we’ve secured this guy first!

 

[compensate]

Just noticed Adam Keighran off contract with the Rorters 2022.84% success with goal kicking can play most backline position not a bad bench player

This guy won’t do anything for us. Last thing we need is another utility. Need some big forwards and a decent centre

 

[The_Patriot]

Everyone is quick to give it to the media when they add one and one and get three but some dumb article which is obviously media spin by Pascoe to water down the talk about a Brooks trade and you all buy in hook line and sinker about extending his contact. At no point in the article do they say they will extend him. Just that they are hopeful it all works out and he is here to stay

It's not even the off season and it's going to be a very long off season.

Errrr

 

[jirskyr]

Oh god it’s been reported by the forgotten man on Facebook. Now we’re no chance


"Have it on good authority" = "I read it on WT Forum"

We are "good authority" aren't we? Self-appointed of course.

@THE_POM mentioned we have tabled him a contract. Hope we get him

We have been recently linked to for 2022
- Egan Butcher
- Hellum Luki
- Harley Smith Shields
- Curtis Scott
- Zac Lomax

If we can sign most of these guys, positive times ahead I’m sure

 

[Aceshigh]

We wont get Egan Butcher now that every other club has noticed him

I guess we’re lucky we’re playing rugby league then….
