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.
"Guymer was off-contract first. Also, just cause we want to extend Tuivaiti earlier doesn't mean he wants to. He might want to test PNG and Perth as well. Who knows
You can say to a player "here is a new 3 year deal" he can say "I'll have a look at…"
"Dragons will have 5 players on close to $1m next year. Gutho, Holmes, Keon, Metcalf and Drinkwater. Leilua and a couple good young forwards may get pushed out. Would be a good get for Parra. MoN needs to monitor the situation closely.
"
"I can't see them letting him go early with a run at the finals looming, but in a perfect world, Metcalf to Dragons could see Sua coming over to us early. This would be great as he's usually left side from memory which is where Lorenzo will likely…"
"They have a good bunch of young forwards coming through and both metcalf and drinkwater are great additions along with Kolomatagi.
We on the other hand cant even keep our best juniors although we've bought nobody, and our number one up and coming…"

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?
