@avocadoontoast Also worth noting Read like Michelle Bishop on SEN and Ch 7 has been pushing Brooks to Newcastle for the last year.
If he leaves wests tigers I don't think it will be Newcastle, it will be Parramatta in 2024, that is what I got told a week ago.
Why on Earth would Parramatta be entertaining Brooks when Moses is on their books and a million times better? It's non sensical.
@avocadoontoast Maybe they are planning for Moses or brown leaving and they have sounded him out who knows how parramatta work. Like us they are probably exploring 2024 options.
I know you HATE Brooks but he is still a good player and in a good team will do well
@jedi-tiger for what it’s worth, some people on the Knights forum seem to be confident that he’s signed with them.

Well he can’t until Nov 1.

He can if he has been allowed to.

I don't hate Brooks at all, think he's a nice guy that had a lot of potential that was ruined by years of poor coaching and mismanagement. I'm assessing him realistically, not with rose coloured glasses like yourself. He's been poor for years and it's best for him and the club to move on.
@avocadoontoast fair call mate I shouldn't say hate
@declan interesting they probably thought that last year too. Not so sure, for 2024 maybe he has but doubt 2023, if he has he hasn't chosen anywhere to live up there yet

As Ive said for years now, Im ok with that if they replace him with someone better. To date they havent.
Let’s hope Blore gets back to being the player we hope he is.

Blore extended until the end of 2024.
I’m ok with that, hope it wasn’t for much though.
Pleased we have re-signed Blore. There is a very high quality player in there if he can stay injury free.
I remember in 2021 watching our first game vs Canterbury. Blore and Stefano were the best forwards on the field. If you want something to look forward to for 2023 watch this recording from the 7 min mark. Repeated strong runs from Stefano and Blore 😉
Article from Brent Read indicating Laurie has been offered a one year extension but he is wanting 2 years. He then says tigers have apoke to Laurie about moving to five eighth if Munster comes he would play fullback.

I’d like Laurie in the 6.
so we’d have
1. Munster
6. Laurie
7. Hastings
13. Matamua
or
1. Munster
6. Laurie
7. Moses
13. Hastings
big improvement on what we have currently.
