The Mole reporting we're looking at Luke Brooks for next year. He's quick I suppose but has looked ordinary so often, albeit in a generally dire team.

I would be sceptical with Gildart. Was top draw at Wigan but then believed the hype. Could have something to prove though and would be delighted to be proved wrong!

Is he actually playing any rugby atm?

He’s at the Dolphins but not played a minute this season. Hardly played for Wests last year, must be getting some reserve grade action. Career def stalled though still gets NRL contract and Wayne Bennet does rate him…..

Pretty good going to be coached by Michael Maguire, Tim Sheens, Trent Robinson & Wayne Bennett in under 18 months!

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Wed Mar 22, 2023 7:01 am  

but hardly selected by any of them.....

leeming training on his own away from the club if reports in the press are to be believed. must be acrimonious

If Corey Johnson really is behind both O'Connor and Bentley for the hooker position, then he has no future at Leeds.
Most of us want to see him given a chance, but it seems that Smith is not convinced.
Bentley is a good player, but playing him at 9 is a joke.
Keep saying it, but our halves need consistent quality ball from DH.

I rate him. He would go very well in SL. Big earner though at the moment

Brooks would eb a good signing.

Just because hes in a dreadful Wests doesn't make him a bad player.

Hastings and Croft were both outcasts and not even 1st grade when they came to SL.

And given the poor quality of SL and salary cap in the NRL - which other first rate NRL actually players want to come to Super League?

Brooks is on a massive contract, we could only get him as a marquee player, but your pivots should be your marquee players, so fair enough.
