Is Luke Brooks worse than Jeff Robson?

[Incorrect]

Warriors should sign Benji.
Imagine Marshall and Johnson as the Warriors halves. I'd watch their games every week if that happened.
1. Tuivasa-Sheck
6. Marshall
7. Johnson
9. Luke

Forget Benji. They should just pull the trigger already and put Tui Lolohea in the 6. That'd be worth watching... Can't believe he's stuck out on the wing....

Maybe I shouldn't pump Tui up too much. He might end up one of those players talked about in the other thread "Players you thought were a diamond but ended up a rock"!!!

Nah, that's more likely Hurrell at this point...

Looks like West Tigers are out of the Cooper Cronk stakes, Tigers have reportedly resigned Luke Brooks.


"Wests Tigers halfback Luke Brooks - one of the NRL club's four key off-contract players - has reportedly agreed to a two-year contract extension.

Brooks, 22, has been offered close to $550,000 a year, according to Fairfax Media - some $50,000 less than he was believed to be asking.

It comes two days after Ivan Cleary's appointment as Tigers coach and would be an important foundation to re-building the last-placed team.


The Tigers would not confirm the Brooks deal when contacted by AAP on Wednesday morning.

Captain Aaron Woods, another of the club's "big four" off-contract stars, expressed excitement at the prospect of Brooks re-signing when told of reports on Sydney radio on Tuesday."

He will flourish under Cleary imo. Just needs an experienced half beside him not an overrated wanker in Moses

[Penrose Warrior]

Ugh, bad first move Ivan.

Is Cleary taking on a captain/coach role?

 

[Clifferd]

If that's meant to be funny I don't get it

Is Jeff Robson off contract next year? He's an experienced half. Maybe the Tigers can get him as well and then it'll be easier for us to make the comparison that the OP was talking about.

 

[Perth Tiger]

Robson is 34 year old. He is done as a first grader

Cronk is 34 and he's gonna get a million bucks. Tigers could sign Robbo for, like, half that or something

Tigers don't need any baldies in our team

Buy him a rug.

I reckon he'd look smashing with a massive afro

Haha you called it.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Worst halfback in the comp. Dumb move.

Eh In also saying that he's never had an experienced coach nor an experienced half/mentor beside him

Without Moses he noticeably also plays better. Worth the gamble

Realistically we were only ever gonna keep one of them and Moses wanted 800k+ lol

 

[OVP]

Now that Moses has gone, the Tigers should sign Cronk for the remaining two years of his career. Brooks will learn more from Cronk than he will ever learn off anyone. Moses leaving could be a blessing in disguise for the Tiges.

Oh btw, expect Tedesco to leave as well. He was interviewed on MMM just last week and said it's never been about the money for him, he wants to play for a club that's always in the 8. He said he hasn't played in the semis ever and wants that to change. Who he goes to though, is not yet decided.

 

[myrrh ken]

Robbos got gf experience. Maybe parra and tigers can do a straight swap with Moses!

 

[Nice Beaver]

Isn't there mumblings that Maloney is a bit peeved with the Sharks for knocking back a payrise request?

He is a winner and experienced as all buggery.

Could be a great guide for Brooks for a couple of years....

1.5mil over 2yrs.

That's overpaying him.
