Wests Tigers chairman Lee Hagipantelis has shot down rumours the club is set to release coach Michael Maguire and halfback Luke Brooks and replace them with the father-son combination of premiership-winning coach Shane Flanagan and son Kyle.

The Wests Tigers are 0-4 to start the year while whispers that Brooks is on the way out won’t go away.

“I was bemused over the weekend by the extent of the authoritative reporting on what’s being proposed of Luke (Brooks) and the Bulldogs,” Hagipantelis told SEN Sydney.

“I can confirm that there have been absolutely zero discussions between the Wests Tigers and the Bulldogs in regards to any player swap.

“There have been zero discussions internally with Flanagan, either senior and or junior.

“The only discussions that have been held internally are focused entirely on our performances.”
