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.
"Yep Coryn, I think development reliant clubs that invest heavily in development need more protection from the NRL.I don't know what that protection looks like other then expanding on the $5000 poaching fee or 10% of the top 30 contract. At the end…"
"Your last sentence is an interesting one Kenny, that when i think about it, could ring true to a degree. Although some must have that capability with 60 Panthers Pathway juniors contracted to other NRL clubs right now. Thats a massive contribution…"
In recent times, it is becoming obvious that the power brokers at the Eels see our junior pathways, as our path to future glory and probably rightly so. We see new full time coaching staff / Eels scouts across the country and scholarships for…

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?
