Wests Tigers Team v Eels

[Demps]

Isn't the Maroons motto - Pick the best players and find somewhere for them to play?

This isn't rep footy , you can't play the top 5 fullbacks across the entire backline.

Point is we all know the club are inept and make stupid decision after stupid decision and this is just ANOTHER one.

Brooks' unquestioned career with never being dropped is unheard of at any other club with any other player.

 

[Demps]

Done it on many occasions(play where the coach needed me that is)I didnt have the luxury of telling my boss where I wanted to play...and I got bugger all for a WIN only not a cheque for win,lose or draw...cheers ...

I'm talking your career.

If you're a bartender and I tell you, for the next week you're mowing the lawns and weeding the gardens... I'm sure you'd do it but you wouldn't be happy about it.

The leaks have got to be coming from player managers???

As long as they paid me the equevalent pay...no worries...your grasping at straws Demps..if your on an NRL contract and you have to fill in when needed then you do it...soft wannabees dont get credit from me unless they deserve it...
I dont here you complain when Turbo plays centre for NSW or Starford gets moved from centre to wing or fullback,but of course these guys arent your glamour boy...

That's true to a point...
Chris Lawrence never played reserve grade either once he debuted.... Another fan favourite!!
We ran him out shite and busted for years.... Week after week after week.
It's how we roll.. It's how we've always rolled.

The kids don't get what they want - We sack the coach....
We sack everyone, And now those same kids are in the coaches box - Coincidence?

Also doesn't mean he won't do a fantastic job mowing the Lawns - While the other guy tending the bar won't achieve the same standards.

My guess it's former players that have been more than happy to throw the club under the bus (Multiple times) that are now working in Media and Television whilst also working with the club,

 

[Stevec]

Brooks suggesting he wants to be where he can play finals football and when his big money contract was brought up he smiled and said if a club wants to pay who wouldn't sign
Cant argue with him there

 

[Stevec]

I do agree someone in the club is leaking to fox and that's unhealthy

Yet one may prefer the job they're doing.

People don't get what they want & they leave.

They don't just continue doing things because it's what their coach/ employer / boss wants.

We do what's best for us and in line with our goals and ambitions.

@Demps doing some gold medal worthy mental gymnastics to justify one of his boys carrying on like a prima donna

Almost does it as good as you.

What's it been, like 8 forum melt downs followed by apologies this year ?

I’m loving it. Cheers.

I bet...
Better than being at work.

Lol anyway take care.

Fox news headline "Brooks bizarre news conference"
Is bizarre if he wants out of his $1.1 mill next year

This is getting ridiculous. If he wants out surely he can just quit. I'm really skeptical about his salary.

 

[earl]

Yeah Burton won more games at centre than 6 as well.

Wonder why the Doggys aren't doing the same ?

It boggles my mind how some of you don't understand it's about playing players in their best positions with the goal to win games.

I agree with this. People state Burton is a centre. I don't think he is. He is a 6. I think Doueihi is a 6 as well.

They can both play in the centres if it suits the team.

The problem is you don't hear Burton crying about not getting the 6 spot over Luaia and he is I reckon 100 times better than Luaia.

Makes you wonder if there is truth to the rumour that a few players wanted out after Madge was sacked. And AD was one of Madge’s boys. Doubt he’d have given Madge ultimatums
