True, but you have to have genuine pace in the backs to capitalise on the work of the forwards. Our wingers are pedestrian.

Can we do that and retain all the players coming off contract?
How would they be worse?
Are you saying our current half is worth 900 odd?
Is that good business bra?

That nun is very tricky. Must be the cornette on her headpiece that makes her deceptive because other than that she's honest as 🙂

Do you know for a fact that is his contract value?
Please list who "they" are as this pool of NRL quality halves available to "replace" Brooks is referred to ad nauseum by the Brooks' posse. How much will it cost to attract one of them to WTs in competition with other clubs?

You can get an instant read on what their fans are saying . . . just go to the kennel.
It's a brutal and honest forum where the fans say what's really on their minds.
Politically correct, it ain't.
But it's a great read.
Its been widely reported he is roughly on that amount. Get your head out of the sand.
We've got madden, AD and jacko who can play in the halves. Sure they're not on inflated amounts. I like the young kid from the Warriors too, Chanel? Few hb out there who are stuck behind regulars,
The brooks lovers on this forum need to justify his value.
You guys can't seriously think that he has been worth it for the last so many years?
Love or hate Brooksy.
It is very difficult to justify him being our highest paid player. He is not a consistent out and out game winner..
I like Brooks but not at a mil per year or anywhere near it.

I respect anyone that wears our jersey except anasta.
Years ago, brooks was one of my faves.
My patience ran out ages ago.

Did you see that flick pass try assist he had last weekend?
The kid has attacking skills rivalling Benji.

Our cap is fine so not sure your point
We have not one rep player and your wondering if we could afford Angus and keep our players. Lol your probably right though, Roosters, cowboys, Manly all have 4-5 800k plus players in Thier side and yet they never have a problem upgrading.
We can afford Angus another good prop and a centre.
We will get 400k for Mbye and a few other things. Brook is either gone or taking a pay cut the following year.
We are actually in a decent position for once.
He's probably one of the best goal kickers as well. I haven't seen a more natural kicker to be honest.

Reported doesn't mean it is true. The context is also important. If he is on that amount, is it due to his contract being backdated? He accepted less in earlier years? We don't know and it is only speculation that is used by the Brooks' posse to hit him over the head.
AD has spent a large portion of his time at WTs injured and he will be a year away from the date he returns to the field to be back to his best. As for Hastings, without Brooks there is no spark in the halves. Also, have the other teams now worked him out. He's been quiet the last few games.

The Roosters have also shown that if if you have all the stars, then you can't afford to have depth. There has been a increase in injuries in the last few years, you have to balance stars and depth now.
