News about Luke Brooks

The 25-year-old played 15 games for the Tigers last year before dropping down a level in the hope of serving as back-up for Daly Cherry-Evans and Luke Brooks at the Sea Eagles. He was named to play alongside fellow half Jake Arthur for Sunday's NSW Cup clash against Canterbury at North Sydney Oval. It remains to be seen whether he features in the game.

The NRL club are intent on releasing Schuster, 22, from his $800,000 contract which expires at the end of 2027, and have granted him time away from the game to deal with personal matters. There is no time frame on his return, with his chances of playing for Manly again appearing remote.

Manly and South Sydney's NRL season opener has been a huge success, but a snapshot from the match shows that the code has some work to do to make an impact in America. Both footy matches were shown live on Fox Sports 1 in prime time on Saturday night (Sunday AEST), with the potential for over 100 million viewers in the United States. Many Americans took to social media to announce their excitement over the NRL's display on their televisions, but a small detail puffed out at some enthusiasts.

Luke Brooks (pictured left), the Sea Eagles' top off-season recruit, has explained why he had to leave the Wests Tigers (right) - and that many of his former teammates would not be happy. Since making his NRL debut in 2013, the 29-year-old is yet to play in the finals footy.

The Roosters face Manly against South Sydney in the first round of the 2024 season, while the Broncos face last year's grand finalists. Clubs have been working with security teams to ensure they are kept in a safe environment during their stay in Sin City, with teams based at the Resorts World hotel.

Anthony Seibold (pictured left) has leapt to Josh Schuster's defense, arguing that the young gun back-rower (right) is a 'hard-working kid who cares about his sport.' Following rumors that the Samoan international hasn't trained for the past eight weeks, he may have missed Manly's NRL season opener in Las Vegas on March 3.

After playing his last season with the club, departing Wests Tigers halfback Luke Brooks was seen with his footy teammates in Sydney Harbour enjoying his bucks party. As they braced for a day of drinking, the veteran halfback, who is scheduled to be Manly's five-eighth from 2024, was photographed with mates, Josh Reynolds and Mitchel Moses. Mitchell Moses, a parramatta Eels talisman, can be seen holding a bottle of vodka when standing next to a mystery woman in one photograph.

A coroner found that pneumonia did not result from the state of the mould-riddled house that his family rented from a private landlord. Luke Brooks (left), 27, believes the mould and dampness in their three-bedroom home in Oldham caused his death in October 2022 (photo: Luke's sister and parents). However, senior coroner Joanne Kearsley told an inquest in Rochdale on Thursday that 'neither the dispairs nor any damp caused or contributed to Luke's death.'

The house seemed to be my dream house due to the large bay window, real wood floors, and pristine cream interiors. I couldn't wait to move into the terrace house in Norwich I'd rented as I began a new chapter in my life as a mature university student after ten years living in a tiny, crowded London apartment. In a cozy and warm home, I imagined a healthier, happier life outside of the capital. However, that was far from what I had expected.

Luke Brooks (pictured left) was 'fit and healthy' before his family moved into the privately owned home, which was laden with damp and in poor condition, according to a coroner. However, he started suffering from regular colds, and his mother, Patricia, begged the local council to find them somewhere else to live 'before someone dies,' according to an inquest. Mr Brooks died last October after a pathologist performed a post mortem revealed traces of 'fungal organisms' on his lungs, according to the hearing.

Toddler Awaab Ishak (left, inset) died in 2020 shortly after his second birthday as a result of his chronic respiratory problems caused by prolonged exposure to mould in his Rochdale home (left). The 27-year-old died of pneumonia, which his family believe was the result of their mould-riddled rented house, which was inset, right) this week. Meanwhile, the cost-of-living crisis has made Britain's'mould epidemic' worse, with over 4.7 million private renters struggling with fungal growth after opting to turn off the heat to save money, according to shocking estimates. The shocking findings, as well as the death of Awaab, had led to calls from the social housing ombudsman to address the burgeoning crisis. Mold claims to landlord have continued to rise in the two years since the boy lost his life, from 3.350 in 2022 to around 5,300 this year.

Patricia Brooks told an inquest into her son Luke's death, 26 years old, that she begged for her family to be relocated from the house in Oldham just weeks before he died from pneumonia. The house was 'freezing,' but their private landlord failed to replace the faulty boiler and defective radiators, or multiple leaks in the roof and a bathroom, according to the woman. The inquest heard that he came down with flu-like symptoms and began suffering from a rash in October last year. His health seemed to be improving three days later, but he suddenly suffered a seizure, and although an ambulance was dispatched, he was later pronounced dead.

There's a $5million mansion in an exclusive Sydney suburb, luxury cars worth well in excess of $140,000 (right) and brewery ownership: so how do the NRL's 10 highest-paid players live? Players are earning more than ever before, and they are clearly enjoying lavish lifestyles to boot. The superstars of rugby league are only getting off to a burgeoning property portfolio and luxurious European holidays. Here are the top ten players in the league as Daily Mail Australia investigates whether they're returning on investment... and how they splashed all the money.

The richest non-players in the NRL have been announced, and many are joking about the bank. With a salary of $1.55 million, NRL CEO Andrew Abdo (pictured left) leads the list, with some of the game's best coaches not far behind him and ex-stars and commentators all raking it in.

During last week's ride to Brisbane, Newcastle had to drop winger Greg Marzhew, and staff dramas forced Parramatta to call forward Ryan Matterson at five-eighth. It comes as North Queensland captain Jason Taumalolo returns from two months out after suffering from a knee injury.

Mitchell Pearce, a footy bad boy, is being marketed as a "new" recruit for the Sydney Roosters, seven years after his horrific drunken encounter with a dog.

Luke Brooks has admitted he is uncertain if he wants to remain with the Wests Tigers, but he is still uncommitted to his future hours after his best night for the NRL team. On Saturday, Brooks was the star of his 200th NRL game, as the Tigers piled on the most points in the 207-season history of Western Suburbs, Balmain, and the joint venture. Brooks, who was often mocked by followers, could not conceal his smile as his name chanted around Leichhardt Oval after the Tigers' 66-18 victory over North Queensland.

In his 200th NRL game, Luke Brooks has gone from Wests Tigers' punching bag to fan favorite, leading the club to a landslide 66-18 victory over North Queensland. Brooks starred in one of his career's best attacking nights, whether it be Balmain, Western Suburbs, or the joint venture. After the siren's brilliant kick, he recovered his running game and had a hand in three tries, Tigers fans began to chant his name until fulltime and again.

On Saturday night, the NRL side, who have long struggled to make any meaningful strides this season, scored their highest number in their history to bring an absolute clinic on Todd Payten's side. Tigers fans took to Twitter to express their surprise at the tragic result after years of derogatory performances.

Brooks will play his 200th game for the Tigers against North Queensland on Saturday, having more on-field scrutiny than any other player in the past decade. Tim Sheens, one of the Tigers' top four, wanted to rebuild the team around, but Brooks is the only surviving member from ten years ago after the departures of James Tedesco, Mitch Moses, and Aaron Woods.

The Tigers were in Bathurst on Saturday night on a 12-match losing streak, equating to 273 days, with fans and pundits denying them little to no chance of defeating the Panthers, who were aiming to leapfrog the Broncos to the top of the standings. However, the resilient Tigers put in a difficult night in treacherous weather, with the much-maligned Luke Brooks putting in a performance worthy of his marquee price tag.
