with Davey injured maybe parramatta might become more desperate on Monday for Joffa, they can hopefully sharpen there pencil for what part of joffa's 2024 salary they will pay
Surely they are paying all of his outstanding salary?
think but don't know for sure we are paying 300k of a supposed 600k salary fir 2024 and parramatta paying all 600k of 2025 salary
We will never learn. We should not be paying a cent.

On what basis?
IMO it is more likely we are paying none of his freight.
I’m ok with the brooks thing , as long as we get a proper gun junior half in . I mean I don’t even care if we fast track large or Conti .
But if we sign another Hastings type , with brooks , basically spinning the mediocrity wheel , then we have lost the plot . That includes Mitch Pearce and whoever .
We need a succession plan and a spark of some kind . Johnson would have been nice .
Schuster is looking pretty appealing right now …urgh!
Exactly… plus we should be getting someone in return. Inept negotiating skills.We will never learn. We should not be paying a cent.

hope you are right
No matter who are our half’s for next year we need a half coach someone like a Matty Johns or James Maloney. With out one we will be where we are now.
Kurt Falls anyone?

How do you logic that? Most early releases are not players swaps.
So if the Snakes want Joffa, there is no way they would be trading us for another forward. That leaves only the backs. Who then says that Snakes (a) have a back that they can afford to release, or (b) have a back that we want, or (c) that we want to take on another back at all?
Not many options out there though most have said no. Club is trying to sign him for a deal they are comfortable with and keep in the lookout for a 6 or 7 partner.
Brooks is super fortunate AD is injured otherwise he may well have been moved on but that is not the case. In Brooks you have a guy who doesn't want to particularly leave sydney or go to u.k. so I guess from his perspective he is in no rush.
It is not just Sheens making decisions benji would tick it off too and so would Fulton who has only been here 3 weeks.
I think some fans were calm about it when they thought because nothing was happening (e.g. not in the DT SMH or foxsports) he would be shown the door.
I don't think they woke up this morning and have decided to sign Brooks I think this has been in the background a few weeks just not played out in the media.
That's my point too. I'm not in a hurry to sign Brooks but the fact is we've been turned down by several halfbacks recently. And AD is long-term injured.
The alternative is to let Brooks go and play, what, Wakeham and Smith in the halves? That's a true madness, regardless of the history w Brooks.

This is reality.
That’s his best game since his debut by a significant margin. So great.
