At least three Super League clubs in Europe could have been mentioned in a report that could see the maligned partnership between Wests Tigers and Luke Brooks come to an end.

According to totalrl.com’s Callum Walker, the teams mentioned are Leeds Rhinos, Catalans in France and St Helens.

Brooks’s current deal at Wests Tigers ends this year with the 28-year-old on a $1million a-season deal.

The story comes on the back of Andrew Voss recently suggesting a trade deal which would see English players swapped to the NRL.

“Legendary Australian commentator Andrew Voss broached the idea of a four-way Super League-NRL swap earlier this week with St Helens’ Lewis Dodd included in going to the NRL with Brooks making the move the other way,” Walker wrote.

“With Dodd seemingly set for a move Down Under at the end of 2024 when his contract runs out, it would leave Saints with a halfback quandary, particularly with Jonny Lomax heading towards the twilight of his career. Brooks still has plenty of years left in him and in such a champion environment as Saints, could really thrive in Super League.”

Meanwhile a prickly question was raised by a listener on Episode 2 of the Macarthur Rugby League Wrap podcast hosted by Curtis Woodward and Matt French with ‘Mick’ asking about the halfback’s lack of social media presence and if it was linked to the amount of abuse he cops online from the club’s supporters.
