From the figures they were talking (which could be all pure bullshit) for the tigers to get rid of him to another club they would have to pay about half his 2023 salary - $600k was the number provided. Do you think his defence could be improved/adapted to suit dummy half. How would Api Korisau go defending in the halves for example? I'm sure his rate of missed tackles would increase. Brooks is a player that needs a change of scenery
Coz I've watched him tackle. You should watch him too that way you'll understand. You don't need to much of a sample size. About 10-15 games should be enough.
"He won't be offered $2 million tax free. They're saying he'd have to earn $2.2m in Australia to be equivalent to $1.2m tax free in PNG.
They aren't going to pay him more (or much more) than his current contract, it's just that he won't have to pay…"
"Thats assuming
a) we have cap space to afford his asking price which would theoretically be high, even for a gap year
b) he would want to come to Parra"
Jerome Luai has a week to seal the deal at the Chief's, 2 million per season tax free. He'll take it . He'll become the richest player in the league by the length of tge straight. D Brown would be earning 650 k after tax.He'll become a free agent…
"Yep, and very very valid EA, shame about round 1. I do believe that we as Eels supporters have too easily or regulary given them the benefit of the doubt or given them a pass so to speak. We have found excuses and genuinely believed in them. I have…"

In attack he could offer value, but he'd be a liability in defence. Maybe off the bench

Moses was just as shit and now he is a reliable defender at the Eels. At hooker Brooks will have more support around him.
I think he'll make a great hooker, looks to have a nice backpussy.
Good grief, this comment escalated real quick. I'll take your word for it Kurupt.
He does have speed, and a lefty kick from dummy half is always handy.
No way Brett. You're kidding signing a player who can't defend at hooker.
I didn't say we should sign him Chief, I merely pointed out his good qualities.
Yes well I gathered you'd like a hooker off the bench
How do you know he can't defend at hooker?
