Ever heard of a strategy of keeping your good players and surrounding them with equally good or better players to improve the squad? Obviously not. Now where is Hastings😂Sheens and Marshall can't be putting too much faith in a past Dally M award or they wouldn't be trying to spend over mill to get another player to play 7.
But he isn’t a good player .. even your trolling is crap 😂Every heard of a strategy of keeping your good players and surrounding them with equally good or better players to improve the squad? Obviously not. Now where is Hastings😂

Whilst they are useful for framing an argument, i wouldnt read to much into any individual stat. They are very subjective and different media organisations give very different measurements of the same stat. E.g. FoxSports had Brooks 23 try assists in 2021 and Doueihi 16.Shoutout to @WesternSuburbsBoy on the stats. It's good to see.
Barba also won a premiership in 2016 with Cronulla, having struggled in the previous 2-3 seasons. He had a great year.[This word has been automatically removed] me dead is that all people have to say "but but Brooks won dally M" so did Ben Barba in 2012 & what happened to him shortly after? anyone can have one good season which is what Brooks did, but has he backed it up since? no he hasn't. The past 4 years & majority of his career has been a resounding failure failing to lead our team to any sort of finals football.
What is that supposed to tell us? I would expect a guy who played fullback and centre to have more tackle busts, because he has a lot more runs, and even in the halves he doesn’t pass a lot.Since Brooks 'Strength' is his running game I decided to look at another stat which is tackle busts.
AD TB's per game 2020: 3.6
Brooks: 1.9
AD 2021: 2.6
Brooks: 2.3
AD 2022: 2.9
Brooks 1.3
Well again would you look at that.
And Brooks won rookie of the year but facts are often lost in the narrative.Barba also won a premiership in 2016 with Cronulla, having struggled in the previous 2-3 seasons. He had a great year.
We also had a change in coach after that year , which may have effected the way he played.I don't hate the fact he won Dally M at all. I thought it was finally going to signal a turn around for himself & the club, but boy was I wrong.
Also Packer got the dirts cos his coach left (800-900K dead cap money) , Reynolds was getting cat fished (800K dead cap money) Mbye was having a half go (900) Matto buggered off…. You get the drift.We also had a change in coach after that year , which may have effected the way he played.
Hastings is the Knights' Plan B.Playing for another club in his preferred position after earning an upgraded contract based on the back of his performance in a team that ran last.
Same as Brooks then if we don't get Moses.Hastings is the Knights' Plan B.
Sheens confirmed more than once he wanted Brooks to stay and extend his contract on a restructured deal like Chris Lawrence. Hastings was moved on expeditiously which should tell you all you need to know.Same as Brooks then if we don't get Moses.
Don’t think he was moved onSheens confirmed more than once he wanted Brooks to stay and extend his contract on a restructured deal like Chris Lawrence. Hastings was moved on expeditiously which should tell you all you need to know.
Sheens has a good eye for a footballers’ skills. He knows Brooks is one of the better halves in the NRL.Sheens confirmed more than once he wanted Brooks to stay and extend his contract on a restructured deal like Chris Lawrence.

Brooksy doesn't have the luxury of the NSW / Australian lock next to him also.Sheens has a good eye for a footballers’ skills. He knows Brooks is one of the better halves in the NRL.
Defensively his stats are similar to Cleary’s, around 20 tackles per game and misses only 15% of attempted. Compared to Doueihi who has half as many completed tackles and misses around 21%.
c'mon mate 😁every team needs an effective default mode, dont they?Iam willing to give AD and everyone else half season, before going for the knife. We have some quality forwards who might make a massive difference and a coach who think beyond 5 hit ups and a bomb
Come on Long Jaws, you know that Sheenius actually means Innovation.So what? You haven't been paying attention if you don't think Sheens has got some poor player selection in his game. He was publicly, brutally punted for going full Sheenius.
Now that he's even older, and a decade out of the NRL on the back of a the clubs first spoon which he had a huge part to play he's all of a sudden the messiah lol.
You Brooks cheerleaders are a weird bunch. Will literally force any narrative to prop up guy who is shit. Has always been shit. Will continue to be shit.
