Wests Tigers hit the training paddock in 40C heatwave

[Tacky]

THE temperature might have passed 40C out west but that hasn’t stopped NRL coaches flogging their stars in pre-season training.

The Tigers were among a handful of Sydney teams slogging it out this morning.

Coach Ivan Cleary braved the heat with his men, who definitely earned a swim after this summer session.

Brooks certainly looks fitter than last off-season. Hope it's good sign of things to come.

Agreed Willow he is looking the fittest I have seen him. It cant be a bad thing.

I think the circumstances of 2018 have left Luke with no choice but to go to the next level with his preperation. When the comfort of playing with your mates is longer there, and there is genuine competition for his spot, its a must that he works harder then ever. I'm tipping Reynolds is helping him with this too. The signing of Benji may already be paying off in this regard.

He already improved 100% on 2017 - having no tanking 5/8 playing with him.

The coaches in-form son being available to approach from November 1st 2018 might also provide some motivation.

Moses leaving will bring out the best in Brooks.
I know previous pre seasons his been in the rehab group but the feeling I got was that with Moses there Brooks went into his shell probably with Moses dominating personality. Reynolds and Benji although possibly equally as egotistical are more team players and would only be encouraging Brooks in the pre season, not trying to out do him.
If anything, seeing Brooks sweating hard in every photo so far is enough to convince me his taking his pre season and next season serious.
