The Luke Brooks/David Klemmer swap between the Knights and the Tigers is officially off - with a twist.The Tigers aren't prepared to swap a halfback for a front-rower - it's bad business in an era where list management makes or breaks clubs.But the twist is that BOTH could be playing for the Tigers in 2023 - and Brooks may well be a Knight by 2024.The Tigers are short of experienced big men and Klemmer wants out of Newcastle, so the dominoes may well fall into place there.Incoming Tigers coach Tim Sheens is a big Brooks fan and wants to coach the veteran No.7, but his contract expires at the end of next season and the Knights see him as a priority.Talks are ongoing - and the picture should get a lot clearer by November 1 when players are allowed to negotiate for 2024.
