Luke Brooks #167

[Winston Churchill]

what exactly makes brooks a 7 thats good enough for first grade?

His salary? Its not his ability, that's been proven over and over. That horse has been well and truly beaten to death.

 

[Winston Churchill]

do I have to say it....
ok I will
former Dally m halfback of the year
very confident wakeham will never be winning any type of Dally m award much like Jock
As I said 2024 go for your life recruit a quality 7 dont re-sign brooks but in 2023 brooks is the best 7 at the club

🤣

Prefer sex personally, though plenty seem to get off on continually attacking him, so each to their own.

Prefer to have a winning team, though some seem to get off continually defending a proven failure, so each to their own.

unusual we haven’t seen @pawsandclaws1 come on here & defend brooks hahahah hope everything is okay mate !!!

He's waiting for Brooks to have his 1 good game a year to come back on here and gloat about him being a Dally M winner.

Game #192

How many takes until he got someone not negative.

Hope he’s not holding his breath.

Even set up he didnt have the brains to handle a fake call. Lowest IQ I've ever seen on a half back. Embarrassing.

So who’s winning the bad Brooks vs good Brooks battle here?

No winners, only losers.

Our CEO should be taken to task over that.
Putting the players into a call centre where they are potentially open to negativity from members who haven’t renewed cant be helpful. We’ve won one game from 14 starts under the new coaching solution, and to make matters worse, an elected WA chair gets sacked for suggesting those responsible accept the responsibilities of their position.
They’re behaving like unionists...think they’re safe and doing a great job if they can point to membership numbers.

That isn't a good idea is it. I like Brooksy. He was good on the weekend. If only a couple of his peers put in like he did.

If this is him putting in effort, I wonder how bad his "off day" would be..

If a couple of his peers put in 10 years of failure they would've been punted a long time ago.

I don't want to see a really poor performance again. He was off last week but I think you can let it go because he should have come back through reserve grade. He was as good or better than any of our players yesterday.

I actually tipped him to have a big year this year and I think I might have gotten one right. I was also joking a bit because I picked AD last year and he was terrible.

Good defense, good kicking, good pass selection, minimal mistakes and creating some opportunities. That was a performance he can build on.

Maybe he is coming into the back end of his career and we'll see a robust reliable consistent player. I don't think he will ever be great but with a good team around him he can help us move up the ladder.

--> I still wouldn't resign him until he puts in at least 8 weeks of solid performances and even then it'd be on a fair contract which to me is about $500k tops.

This is even better. Justin Pascoe hosting his own series Ask the Boss.
The egos are rampant for a rock bottom losing side.

 

[Yanz 85]

The only rest needed is the Wests Tigers from him

Exactly. If board members actually listened to what members and fans say about brooks we wouldn’t be bashing him, the bloke is not a up too it. He needs to be dropped

Brooks played well yesterday. He was close to our best (if not our best yesterday). Kepaoa, another favourite of mine, played very well also. Although we didn't play well, had Doueihi not muffed the try which Brooks laid on, we would have won. We need to take all our opportunities which Sheens mentioned before the season started. Despite all the negavity especially from the Maguire hardcore, I remain positive.

I am really enjoying the involvement of Kepaoa. He looked to be one hell of a player with his increased involvement. Full marks to the coaching team for making the change.

Credit to Kepoa.... he's been quite poor for us over the years and played out of position regularly.

He's come back this year and he's been 1 of the only standouts - doing everything asked of him, playing out of position and playing well.

If only some of the other players responded as well as he has, we wouldn't be so disgusted and annoyed today.

Surely you must be thinking Sheens isn't up to it now. How long do you give him. I think we are done this season. I don't think we have the cattle and we don't have some gun coach who will have the team well drilled and performing to their best.
