Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[THE_POM]

any info on what the club plans to do next?

Expecting the club to announce shortly a 2 year extension for Brooks, doesn’t want to go anywhere else based on discussions despite recent interest from the Dolphins.
Going to give Brooks & AD a chance to prove themselves now for the time being.
Large is the future for the club. Hopefully ready a year after Benji takes over

Always thought there was a low chance of him coming. At least we squeezed parra for an extra 100-200k out of their cap.

Any interest at this stage in Ethan Sanders or the like?

They are our only options.

I don't think this is good news but it's not bad news.

Still can’t land a big fish. At least we haven’t destroyed our salary cap.

Hopefully this means we now halt negotiations with Brooks and look at other options.

who does the club see as the long term 7? Isdale, Conti or someone else?

Not surprised MM rejected us, was always leveraging our offer to extend at Parramatta…. Not the end of the world… we now can move on from him… which is a good thjng

Hopefully Brooks at the right price and a marquee player at fullback or centre.

It will be interesting to see what they do about Brooks. I would expect that he will also be wanting to sure up his future pretty quickly.

I don't think we have to rush to sign Brooks

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Oh well we can all go back to hating Moses again, most of us will admit the love in for him was very forced. Throw the cheque book at Welsby see if we can tempt him for next season.

Give Brooks till round 8 before you write him off… he has never played behind a pack on the front foot.. he will in ‘23….

That’s about right mate, 6-8 weeks before you offer him a deal. First month could be rough while we build combos.

So other than extending Brooks do we have any other potential targets now we haven’t given all our cash to Moses?

Farnworth, RTS, etc???

 

[tony soprano]

Piss Brooks off now extend Wakeham

 

[Mighty Mouse]

There you go fellas, obviously Moses was never going to come. Welsby and Farnworth would be awesome pickups although the latter is apparently close to staying at red hill

Any chance the 2 year extension was signed in the hope of playing him alongside Moses? As in the manager Isaac Moses used the situation to get the best option for both clients? Brooks gets more money with Moses not at the club. Is it a decent contract as in we are getting good value out of it?

If there’s 1.4million involved hopefully we aim higher.

Lets' wait and see if we have a Plan B
