Luke Brooks #167

[earl]

Complete rubbish he’s had 10 years of excuses and now the final one of no decent pack to play behind has finally been crossed off.

This is a tough one. I get your response in the context of someone who feels that Brooks has been given too many excuses. I've never bought into that line.

Doueihi was excused for his poor form due to injury and Hastings poor record with us just disappears in the wind.

I disagree though with your assessment this season that he has been rubbish. That to me is nutters but it's cool.

To beat Brooks at that game you just need to go Paper every single time.
He can only serve up Rocks.

Is that what you are talking about ?

Check this out.
Patrick Carrigan mic’d up for our biggest loss this year.

That was awesome. One of the things that I don't understand is when people say player x can't organize or they don't talk and I wonder how they know that for a fact and even then how much talk is really required etc. Even when it comes to position that is a lock forward talking a lot. It's just not something that is clear cut about what is right and wrong. It's very subjective.

So first we had Sam Walker dropped for a couple of poor performances.... Now another 7 not performing to expectations in Kyle Flanagan has been dropped by Ciraldo at the Dogs

If we had Sam Walker or Kyle Flanagan at Wests Tigers we would probably drop them as well.

The difference here is that we have Luke Brooks.

It's got to be someone on the board.

Our forwards are good. They dominated against Manly. Our attack remains the worst in the NRL. It surprises me that over the years - loss after loss after loss - the WT never at least experimented with a team without Brooks. It's not as though they could go much worse in attack. I thought halfbacks had the responsibility to organise the attack.

You'd think that would be common sense but reading through these threads with the attention seekers, the old saying shines through that common sense isn't that common. After a decade long losing career and at 0-7 behind a rep forward pack some apparently seem to think he is doing just fine. They're the ones with velcro shoes.

Tigers wont be resigning him...if he was in their plans, he'd have a contract offer already...

368 days since he has sung the team song and counting
HOWEVER…It is 620 days and counting since he won a game as the halfback….long drought.

That'll devastate his simping fan boys on here.

5 buck bet?

Not a 7 or 6. Why not give him a go at 13.

The Cowboys game was really a win!!!!!

Lol no it wasn’t.

Lol no it wasn’t.

But we all know what happened ......... 😉

Yep, one of our defenders changed his line whilst trying to provide protection on a high kick and it was taken advantage of to draw a penalty kick at goal, which was converted and lost us the game.

Except a Cowboys player was offside at the kick restart and it was missed by the officials.
We should have got the penalty and the game right there.

But we didn’t so it’s a moot point.

You're right, sadly.
Justice is a rare feed at the tigers.

 

[You Know Who]

Just read through a few anti Brooksy posts here guys and thinking he has run over everyone’s cat?
Because when I look at the stats on NRL halfbacks it seems we have an ok number 7?
Some of the crap put on here to justify the hatred is just plain wrong.
Check your facts people before joining the Congo line and singing to the tune. 😂

The crap you Brooks stans come up with to defend him is breathtaking.
I suggest you check those stats again but this time, try to do it without being 10 pints in. There are zero statistics to suggest he is an ok 7 and I'd love to hear your moronic defence.

He's not even top 50 of players for try assists or line break assists, and the only starting halfback with less try assists than him is Kyle Flanagan. Not to mention the eye test showing that he is still completely incapable of directing a team around despite have a really good forward pack which you Brooktards claimed would unlock his game.

Either back up your nonsense with the stats or stop posting lies because you Brooks fans are only embarrassing yourselves more and more.
