I don’t hate it, but it’s not very inspiring.
They could have fanged up and coloured this guy:

i think if Pearce departs Newcastle then I can see Brooks being pushed up thereYou have to give it time because the reality is that all that matters is on field performance. He sounds exactly what we need though.
I can't see Brooks lasting a week as our main play maker. I think that role will be Hastings.
The POM on the other forum reckons it's all bs. Tigers have offered him 575k a year which he has apparently accepted. I think thats a good dealBj wants 800 and Lucy 700.
Seriously, where the f**k do we find these guys?!
That’s a relief.The POM on the other forum reckons it's all bs. Tigers have offered him 575k a year which he has apparently accepted. I think thats a good deal
I thought you signed them?Bj wants 800 and Lucy 700.

I’ve done my time in recruitment frolics my friend.I thought you signed them?
You’d give him a sweetener on account of the bj factor.
That’s over my head, whoosh! Lol!Gotta laugh at the phrasing of that thought .....i sure did!

Lol It will take me a week to figure it out.Luckily
That journalist said some of our players should be shaking as they go to collect their pay checks.$700k for Luc is nuts and if we do it we’ve learnt nothing from the large long term contract we gave Nofa. Like Nofa at his best he is amongst the best players in his position in the game. However his worst game also puts him amongst the worst in the game. There are equal amounts of these games a year.
Matterson went to the Eels on $550k and Capewell to Broncos on $500k. Both these guys are overall better players then Luc.
This is one where I would very happily call his bluff. I would be shocked if any other club would pay him $600k, let alone $700k. His current contract of $450-$500k is spot one IMO
TIGERS’ WORD ON LEILUA FIASCO
Ex-Tigers centre Joey Leilua sent the rugby league world into a spin when he blasted coach Michael Maguire, while also denying reports he was only offered a train-and-trial contract by the club.
And now the Tigers have responded to the confusion over the 29-year-old’s future.
Leilua’s contract, understood to be worth around $800,000 per season, expires this year. News Corp reported that the Tigers had offered him a $1,000-per week train-and-trial deal rather than a top 30 contract extension after he had a disappointing season.
However Leilua took to Instagram to deny those reports, claiming he wasn’t offered anything, while also saying he wouldn’t want to play for Maguire anyway.
News Corp stood by the original report.
Now, Tigers chairman Lee Hagipantelis has come out confirming the club didn’t offer him anything.
“Absolutely, when in doubt, go to the source Joey is correct,” Hagipantelis told SEN.
“There was no contract of any sort offered to Joey.”
Leilua is reportedly weighing up a move to the USA to pursue rugby union.
