Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion
- Thread starter MacDougall
- Start date
Also in the Telegraph this morning. Dave Riccio has an article on the Knights and it brings up that Leo Thompson could go to market on November 1 this year. I quote “if Thompson does take himself to the open market, watch for Penrith and Melbourne to come swinging”. If he goes to one of those to clubs it needs to be the final straw for the salary cap.
That shit is stopping now and about time.
It's funny on Luke Brooks as the media are in love with him now and he is regarded as a superstar because he has all these other stars around him.
Before the game on Thursday Brandy was having a love feast over him and saying he will destroy us, and we will get pumped. We win and all silent again.
Agree with the others though but extremely confident in Richo correcting that.
When we are successful in a few years these clowns at DT and 360 will be sucking up as they will be losing all there click bait rubbish.
GOOD TIMES AHEAD....

Do you wonder why you hold that view but two of the best coaches in RL have a different view? I believe he is a gem, sure he needs work but will be an impact prop. He will need a big off-season. Remember he also young for a prop. I am sure our coaching and fitness staff will be working hard on him.

How can Luke Brooks be a buy? He was a developed junior. Bad buy for Manly

Must be struggling for things to write about, add in:
Chris Mcqueen
Matt Balin
Russell Packer
BJ leilua
James Roberts
Ben Matelino
They're talking about the deal he signed when we lost Moses, Tedesco and Woods. We offered well above his market value so we could at least keep one of the fab four. It was a very bad deal given what Brooks showed after he signed.

Just having a think about what our bench looks like next year
Tallyn has to be there his form is to good for NSW cup
We need a player who can cover middle edge and centre for me this is John Bateman I’m hopefully he comes back with a better attitude
And for the rest of the bench just to big mobile middles

For a bloke who achieved everything as a player, Brandy is often clueless as a commentator.
I would argue a lot on here have a better read on the game, we just didn’t have that extra bit required to be pro footballers.

107kgs...better than Corey H ...and more disciplined
Still need Hunt plus a special player to replace Paps if our pack is to become a force

Wow. They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Brooks was not a bad deal. Reynolds, Blair and Packer were. Mbye's contract was a Bulldogs one before ours and Sullivan hasn't even finished one season?
I think we continue to focus on our juniors.
Winning in 2025 will legitimise this club and make recruitment easier

Ben Matulino was a great player for WTs, it was his knee that was the issue. I always remember that great pass in Melbourne to Brooks to win WTs the game.
We need good players not just other clubs dregs
