The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)
Yep I don't get it. Has he ever run a good line , busted a tackle and scored? The only way this could be a value buy is if he plays lock and he's able to play to his strengths consistently. I hope I am wrong too- bringbackbeaver

The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)
I really hope we did not pay 2.5m over 3 yrs for a second rower The bloke is all potential at this point with some real concerns about attitude and commitment 800k a year could have bought us a VERY good hooker, prop or established and proven second rower lock- bringbackbeaver

Andrew Johns said Luke Brooks was one of the best juniors he EVER saw. Goes to show that juniors doesnt always translate to 1st grade. 600k a year for Brooks is a steal of a deal. The 5/8 position has been a real issue for us since Foz left the first time. He came back and we looked better until...- bringbackbeaver

Pre-Game Manly v Roosters [Round 18, 2023]
We have a heap back and they have troops out. We are at full strength minus Turbo by the looks of it. Longer turnaround, at home, players back... if we can't win this week it will be a new low- bringbackbeaver

The Luke Brooks Book Thread.
no way cherry going to titans. He is settled on the NB , has retirement on the horizon and has sorted his contract out for the next two years. Looking at how chez has commented on the Shoe situation, I think it's pretty clear he has taken issue with the lack of effort / commitment. He wants...- bringbackbeaver

The Luke Brooks Book Thread.
Tough crowd... that price for a half is about the cheapest you will get at NRL level. Allows the team to invest in a quality 9 potentially. Or would you prefer to keep paying Josh 800k for the rubbish effort he has been throwing up this year? I am sure DCE would have been heavily involved in...- bringbackbeaver

The Luke Brooks Book Thread.
Agreed. 650-700 for a half who has a lot of experience and could slot in well next to Chez.- bringbackbeaver

Ex Very well put and why we need to put the culture ahead of individual potential. Above all, we need to find that grit and determination we haven’t seen for many years. We used to see manly get into the grind and outlast the opposition. We don’t see that anymore. I don’t see some of our...- bringbackbeaver

Post-Game Discussion Storm v Manly [Round 17, 2023]
With Tom out our attack is munted . Need to take some risks . Bring Latu up and put shoe to 13. Shoe has looked very good in attack with Tom but he needs a slick fullback off his hip to make stuff happen. Gaz isn’t a natural ball player so doesn’t help shoe’s attacking game like Tom. Time to...- bringbackbeaver

Game Day: Storm v Manly [Round 17, 2023]
F You might be right . Just over following a crap side with no heart . 8 missed tackles from schuster. Best player in the world hey ? Yeah nah. Hard to see the way forward here . Tend to think we need to focus on getting the forward pack inc 9 sorted as a priority and hope the rest falls into place- bringbackbeaver

Game Day: Storm v Manly [Round 17, 2023]
Need a total rebuild. The Blacktown experiment is not working. We have gone all in on gangster wannabees with no grit. Why can’t we find decent wingers . I reckon we have the worst outside backs in the comp. Koula… better improve or he can go to rugby and take shoe and Gauc with ya- bringbackbeaver

Yep. You don’t hold onto a toxic group no matter how good they are . They will eventually eat away at trust in the team and destroy it from the inside Hopefully this story is all hog wash and there’s no truth to it. But if it’s true , and this bloke is so talented , I respected the powers that...- bringbackbeaver

Haven’t seen much of this kid but maybe this is seibold wanting to get away from the gang wannabees to better balance out the side Can have 1-2 of them Cant have 5-6 of them You’d have to think if this is true that there must be good reason- bringbackbeaver
