Will the Melbourne fan base give us much vitriol to Munster for saying the same thing AD did? Probably not but will be interesting to see.

The thing for me is Muster re-signed with Melbourne. He is contracted up and has a long term future with them.
We don’t know if Doueihi will be with the WT’s beyond 2023. If he was locked in with a settled position and a contract till at least the end of 2024..I’d have a different opinion about Doueihi As captain.
 
Doueihi had a shocker last year, but due to returning from injury I will give him a second chance. Some on here are so scared he will show up brooks in the halves that they will try anything to undermine him. The classic is laughing at the media for saying brooks is on $1million but taking it as facts that one media outlet said he was asking for $950,000. Stop the bias let’s see how he goes after a full pre season. Because I guarantee you a firing doueihi is our best chance of getting some wins this year.

Plus comparing Munster and his performances to Doueihi's is pretty ridiculous.

Do you think sheens will keep brooks at 7 if he has some stinkers?

You have to drop him if he plays really poorly. Let's be honest though Brooks is a shoe in to get picked if fit every week. Who else do you play there ? Wakeham or Laurie ?

If Brooks has a game like Doueihi has shown where he lets in 4 tries on his own due to abysmal defence he too will cop the boot - but he has never had defensive stinkers like Adam did in 2022!

He's never had a knee reco or had
to play out of position either smh.
Brooks' defence is good, Doueihi
will go good in the halves and a
full preseason don't worry bro...
Whole team dropped their heads
last year let's be real about it lol

A lot of people are judging AD on a handful of come back matches from a ACL. I am willing to give him half a season before putting the knife in.

He’ll definitely be the #6 this year mate.

If AD is 6 then we are going to have issues, Defence and Ball Hogging.

Defensively you want a weaker 6 then a weaker Centre, and hey maybe its better moving him to 6 so that our flanks are covered. Naden is a better defender and I believe Staines is better then AD too, Unsure if they will be the Center pairing and I don't mind Naden being on the wing as more solid defensive cover (he was one of the Bulldogs not so best defenders yet he stands very high in our squad because defence is so SO poor).

AD just doesn't pass. He is like Reynolds in that respect. He gets the ball and runs it, that's why everyone thinks he is a better centre. You want your ball Hogs to be one of the last receivers, not 6.

Look, not meaning to flame AD. He has talent, he has potential. He does put in. But he has to make his tackles and we have far too many turnstyles in our team. I see AD could end up like Craig Wing, a bench player that fits any position. We really need him to pass more to the players around him and Sheen's 200 passes a day will help with that.

Without Tackling and good defence I see huge problems.

We get it buddy zzzz. Nothing that
hasn't been repeated over & over
again periodically in the last 20 or
so pages. Let's see how we do b4
a few rounds and then we can get
back to wanting heads to roll smh

Anyone and everyone worth their
grain of salt said he was our best
in 2021 before he tore his ACL.
We're lucky that he's on or team,
you're ungrateful. We went from
slandering Brooksy to shitting on
Doueihi within a week. It's crazy

He can pass it. He has a beautiful long ball from left to right. He can make a tough carry and get an offload as well. His running game is real good.

His defense has been trash but it's not that he can't hit. He is a big guy and he hits hard. At times he just seems to completely miss-read the play.

He can fix these parts of his game and if he does he has a lot of upside. It's more about consistency.
