I hope and pray that there is no truth in this because if there is, and someone in the Tigers management team thinks that Brooks is worth $1.1M a year, then things are a lot worse than we previously thought (if that's possible).

Even if another club was offering him close to this we should have let him take it. We’re pretty much stuffed I reckon.

I stand to be corrected on this but I would reckon 1.1 million a year would put Brooks as the highest paid half back in the league. Let that one sink in for a bit.

Nah I don’t buy it. no way is that figure for Brooks is correct. As a club we are prone to dubious decision making ( Ballin, Reynolds, Mbye), but not even we could pay overs to that extent.

If only KPi’s dictated how much of a wage these NRL players get annually…

Can only image what the WestsTigers would be playing like if this was the case.

Then again the 1.1 might explain a few things .....been asking Geo for years why Brooks has lost pace ....carrying that much extra dosh in your rear pocket would slow anyone down lol

Good to see someone hasn’t taken the bait by accepting this trashy narrative.

It's more if people are saying he IS on that they should provide some proof. I think journos pluck figures from the air and the only people who truly know the figures are the club, the player managers and, sometimes, the player 🙂

I agree, but I wouldn’t put it past the club. We’ve done some pretty stupid stuff lol

It doesn't work that way, you don't know what anyone is on. I can just as easily say $600k. His salary has been reported at many different ranges.
