Rumours (signings, sackings & other stuff)

[Tigerm]

The trouble with the Brooks argument (in staying) is that he has been the main man for over 10 f**king years and in that time, has done SFA?
You can’t keep blaming everyone for his ineptnesses, he just doesn’t seem to have it, well not for us anyway?
IMO, it’s time we tried another option.

There’s nothing more glaring & necessary than WT & LB to be going their separate ways

Surely if Tim has offered Brooks a contract extension it’s at a much, much lower salary?

I suspect its much lower salary and will be averaged from next year for the duration.

This would mean instead of costing a million next year it will be more in the range of 700k, which is closer to his market value.

Its attractive to the Tigers because he has been massively overpaid for the last 3 years and also Brooks because we accept mediocrity like no other club.

What a mess

As they’ve moved on Jock, it looks like they’re keeping him. If they can work out some deal, like you mentioned, to make him a reasonable price and they don’t play him every week, regardless of performance, then it’s not too bad of a thing. I don’t think either will be the case though.

Nathan Cayless returning to Parra

huge loss for the tigers

With Cayless back in charge of your defence and Arthur getting more game time next year the final peices of the parra puzzle are in place.

And hopefull, perhaps, certainly if he plays more NSW Cup his performances improve as does the NSW Cup team.

I don’t know the guy but you’d think his confidence must be absolutely shattered.

It’s just a shame the way he went about it. No respect for the guy anymore, couldn’t care less if he gets a premiership or not.

Good for him. I hope he wins a premiership.

 

[gordsy]

Leaking 30 odds points in finals game is not Ideal, with the Storm gone, it looks like a Panthers repeat to me.

He was actually really shit. Missed the tackle on Kennedy for a try, then 3 mins later dropped a ball with no pressure on him. If Luki wasn’t out for the season I doubt he’s even in their 17.

You know 14X what we know about running dead last place.
Pray, tell us more . . . . . and then I'll tell you what it's like to win a comp in your lifetime.

He'll never know mate. Somecockwomble2 would never have seen his team get close to winning a title. He was born in 2010

I haven’t payed any attention to his form since leaving. I really liked him last year, has his faults but ran with gusto, I assumed he was tanking because his brother got sacked and he wanted out ASAP.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

Really ?

Knights coach Adam O’Brien has been called out for comments regarding the team’s fitness and the assertion that Luke Brooks would have dramatically changed the outcome of their season.

O’Brien used a break for Covid as an excuse for the team not being fit enough and believes the club’s failure to lure Brooks from the Tigers had a huge effect on their dismal 2022 campaign.

“Adam O’Brien saying that Luke Brooks definitely would have changed their team, I agree with him,” Braith Anasta said on NRL 360.

Anasta must surely have meant, it would have changed the Tigers.

What do the put in the water at News Corp/Foxtel?
