Former Wests Tigers prop and teammate of Luke Brooks, Aaron Woods, now a current Manly player alongside the Eagles half says the Wests Tigers junior will get smashed by fans at Leichhardt on Thursday Night.

“He’ll be booed for sure, they booed him as a Tiger, but Brooksy looks set to have the last laugh because he’s only a few weeks away from playing in the finals,” Woods told The Sydney Morning Herald.

“They won’t care that he hung around so long.

“Watch how they will treat Stefano (Utoikamanu) next year when he returns with Melbourne.

“He’ll cop it. The fans don’t give a shit.

“But Brooksy won’t care, he’s flying.”

Manly currently sit 6th, three points inside the top 8.
