Brooks is tanking

The scary thing with AD is he is weak on multiple plays...but gets up and stares at others / blame game.

That is a massive red flag.

Bateman gets up and blames himself.

AD looks around at others.

Massive red flag.

....and he is touted as a leader by some?

The halves should be

7. Wakeham

Doohey can piss off

Nah Hobbo. (1) even years gone by he was this rubbish.
(2) brooks shouldn’t be in the halves (or the team at all). I care less that he is the golden child. There can be no level of acceptance of this crap. None.

Because I'm not going to make a decision, or a call, to start Wakeham cause he had a couple of good moments - especially considering its fresh legs vs tired legs.

Anyone can have good moments in a game, even Brooks did.

Then if there’s no accountability what’s the point in having any depth ?
Where is the reward for Wakeham ?
No wonder players piss off at the first chance they get ..

What's Wakeham supposed to be rewarded for? Couple of good moments?

I'm all for rewarding players who've been putting in a good stint in reserves - and the players you're alluding to, the ones who have pissed off, are in that category. Not Wakeham. He's not in a position to get pissy about selection, or lack thereof.

Don't care for personal attacks.

But to clarify it for you - I do not think AD and Brooks are the answer, at all. But the answer is NOT within the club.

If you're willing to wait for these hyped up youngsters who may never amount to anything, maybe, but we need to sign a Moses.

But if it makes you feel better to give Wakeham a run just because, do it. It won't get much worse, but it sure as heck won't get any better.

Brooks is trash. Wakeham is trash.

AD is a trash half.

My opinions, thanks for listening.

Also not defending him, he's garbage, but our top halves in order:

Brooks
AD
Will Smith
Wakeham

Not based on todays performance (because Wakeham was alright), based on the past couple of years at least.

Mornin', yes - miles ahead too.

Not sure if that says much for Brooks, or the dire state of our halves depth.

Now, you wake up if you think Wakeham is the answer.

Why are people rating Will Smith?

Cmon "getting jiggy with it" "MIB" OK it was great in that 90/2000's...

Seriously, Will Smith though. Tiny Winger who could score at Parramatta but had a huge Ego on him.
Okay he has probably changed since then. Clearly his stint at the Titans and time has helped and he seems to have a better attitude.

He is a CAP free half. No one wanted to pay for a top 30 spot for him and there is a good reason... He ain't that good.

Wakeham seems to have the hunger for first grade. Give him a shot.
 
Wakeham deserves a shot .. we played well in the trial against the Raiders with him at 7, and in this game against the Bulldogs. With Papali'i back next week, and Jahrome Hughes missing from the Storm, we have another unlosable game to lose

I mean this nicely...but Luke does not have the brains to tank. Or do anything else. We've all seen that bloke at a BBQ who can't think or hold a conversation...stares into space. That is Brooks.

But he can run.

He needs that to be his one and only job.

Play him at centre
