Luke Brooks is heading to Manly in 2024 for a 4 year deal. Apparently 600k per year. I think it will do him good. Feel sorry for young superstar Jake.

Dont feel sorry for him. Theyve got it covered, just like players of the calibre of Ryan Matterson, Luke Lewis, Bryce Cartright, Wade Graham. All halves that went on to become second rowers.
Brooks will do good. When Moses was dicking around I said we should go after him as our backup should Moses decide to walk. I stick by that, He's a good little player in a rubbish team.
Who's gives a ------ nothing to do with our club.
GO THE EELS
It could possibly have something to do with the Eels as the Eels do play against Manly and it's good to know what players they will have.
The figure mentioned on NRL 360 was between $600k and $675k.
Good on him for getting away from the Tigers, it will do him good. The question I have is why would Manly have to pay that much more than the Tigers (who apparently offerred him a $550k per season)?
Rental accommodations are more expensive in the Manly region
More expensive than Balmain ? Wouldn't be much in it .
Manly are a mess, letting all their best juniors go to sign blokes like brooks
This will be a massive tester now for Brooks... so many think he is just steaming poo... but is it that or is it being stuck in a club that is steaming poo? It will either be Tigers embarrassed for ruining a bloke with potential over many years... or... Brooks confirming the club doesn't matter - he's just bog ordinary.
Great signing for Manly. I fear for the Tigers though, who now have no recognised half and a recruitment manager (Fulton) who thinks stealing Shuster from Manly is the answer.
