Rumoured Targets 3

[The Axe of Druss]

Move on. Likely with no halfback solution. Great advice.

So just wait around like we did before this season and miss out on everyone else......and still miss out on Brooks?

I agree with his take tbh. We need to put an offer forward and if they dont come to the party then move on and persue another option.

There was nothing that they said we do not already know. We do have to start somewhere though and soon. Brooks is clearly the plan, so it really is just a case of the us accepting it and embracing what follows. What’s everyone’s gut feeling? Is he going to be signed or not?

We can’t put an offer foward till nov1

I've viewed the Tigers' public comments about wanting to keep Brooks as more of a negotiation tactic than a genuine interest from them, but according to the Telegraph they have actually tabled an extension for him.

So what were we doing all of last offseason?

Sure, maybe they cant put together a formal offer but the club can certainly ask the question and if its a no then move on. f**king around only hurts us more

The extension flies in the face of their alleged pursuit of Munster.

 

[PhilGould]

It was actually mentioned in an article about their pursuit of Munster so apparently not

Doueihi and Hastings OC next year, but both of those you’d rate ahead of Brooks surely. I’d take both of those players as our halves tomorrow.

 

[Bdubs]

I’d be interested to know why the Tigers are so intent on playing hard ball over Brooks. It is strange for a club, who much like us, have big internal problems.

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

I know its only Superleague but... Be nice if he can score as many tries over here lol

 

[macavity]

Anyone watching the Q cup?

Tyrone Roberts > Tyson Gamble

 

[slotmachine]

Are you surprised though? Gamble isn't very good.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

Yeah, we don't need players who can put great kicks in to set up match winning tries

 

[The Axe of Druss]

Cooper Johns. Now there is a player who's not very good

 

[macavity]

He had a decent second half.

Cooper Johns was not good.

 

[Burwood]

Burleigh are looking good with ball in hand, and apparently they have the best attack in the comp. Not sure who the coach is (some guy who looks like Ellen Degeneres), but we should look to bring him to the club.

Fell apart in the second half like an ellen coached team

Stoney was simply too nice to be a first grade coach at NRL level.

So let’s say the Garrick thing doesn’t eventuate (which is highly possible) I’m going to throw a name out there who we should look at for fullback. Blake Taafe.

He’s played some first grade at Souths since last year and has looked pretty good but his long term path to the NRL is blocked by Latrell being in front of him. I can’t see him staying there much longer tbh. He came in during the finals series last year and didn’t look out of place and importantly he’s a goal kicker too.

I don’t have any intel on this but just thought it’d be worth mentioning.

Who cares about goal kicking, does he train hard?
