People on here are way to doom and gloom, a single article about benji and fulton mildly disagreeing on a single player and all of a sudden the clubs falling to pieces due to office politics.

Who gives a toss. All I care about is that they didn't go for Schuster. Good job.

It’s not falling to pieces due to office politics.
It is falling to pieces due to extreme incompetence.

don’t know if this means much but his brother liked this on instagram

He reposted something (from I assume one of his friends) on his insta story yesterday that hinted at bringing both his brothers over to Tigers too.

But this like you posted above has been removed by the look of it. Maybe the club has told him to stop interacting with this stuff until it becomes official.

How good is it that most chat on our end is staying behind closed doors keeping us guessing
Very minimal word coming out ofTiger camp once again

yep.
Oh, except the discussions with the Fainus. And our stance on Schuster. And letting the world know Brooks rejected us. And our pursuit of every off contract experienced halfback and how theyve all rejected us. And leaking that a bunch of our players have been told to look elsewhere.

The comments about Brooksy are hilarious. Consistently one of our best players. We offered him in my opinion a fair contract but it was dependent on Brooks wanting to stay and take under at the Tigers. He choose not to do that and of course he was going to get a significantly better contract.

Personally though I'm ecstatic that at some point at some time in the future there will be less comments about Brooks on here.

The real issue is are we getting Fainu and if so will he deliver in the next 2-3 years. We desperately need this to occur. We also need two more halves assuming we sign Wakeham. The recruitment team have a lot of work to do.

There is always another shit player in our ranks that these comments can be redirected to.

Doueihi was a stand out before injury. He is not coming back from the latest knee reconstruction. Even better he will be sitting on the sidelines for 600k next year

Sadly, he had 11 years to show that he can play the role the WT need.
His main weapon - his speed - he used it once every 10th blue moon
His short passes were often too hard, and behind the receiver, his short kicks were often too long, and bombs too shallow and presented the basis for the opponent counter attack.

Omg … the torture just never goes away, I was reliving it all as you layed it out.. 11 years of the Tigers Teams general going MIA whenever the battle needed a calm head to ice it for us..the hospital passes, the panicky ball launched at the lead runner just as the lead runner was not in a position to receive it.. the passes behind the man, the wrong option being taken when the block play had actually worked .. the failed touch finders, the slowing the game down when we are the team chasing points.. The quick taps when we are trying to protect a small lead and run the clock down.. The half hearted scoots on the fifth tackle ehen we needed a repeat set.. the slow and predictable passes when we are running the wrong play at the wrong time after a slow play the ball.. The going to the left when the right side has a man down and are shot for numbers.. The tactical chip kicks to the opposition fullback. The constant chip kicks/bomb to the most dangerous player of the opposing back 3, when the chase is lacking prior to the kick even.. The playmaker just not even talking to his runners during a set near the opposition tryline, appearing to disappear when we needed a repeat set…. 11 years of this on repeat on repeat on repeat … Manly … I wish you all the best…. 😎

I think you hit the nail on the head. Latu will be an exciting signings, but don’t expect much to change for a couple of years. You can’t expect a kid to walk into a NRL side and hit the road running. It’s going to take time and good coaching. On the other hand Manly at full strength should be a good destination for Brooks and I expect him to do well

It might already be signed and the club’s just waiting to see if they can get an early swap before they announce it.

That’s what I reckon’s happened anyway.

I don’t know about that he’s contacted for 24 & 25 if he’s signed he’s been released end of story. I’d say most likely they are still thrashing out compensation of some sort and then we probably have to compensate them further for taking TT off our hands earlier 😉
