Brook's Defence

[Cultured_Bogan]

He and Benji worked well today with Luke taking on the direction and Benji popping up when it mattered (Thompsons try.)

[Madge]

Has to be complemented he’s been our best and most consistent player all year. On ya brooksie!

 

[stevied]

And a question for you all - who do you think is the best defensive halfback in the game? I think our Brooksy would be rated quite highly.

Brooks is going good now, but watch him really shine if Benji is taken out of the mix

 

[Tigerdon]

He has been the unsung hero for a long time. Not just this year either.

 

[supercoach]

Confidence is a great thing

I think we'll be waiting until the end of the season for Benji to be omitted.
Unless he gets injured .

Come on guys, who is the best defensive halfback because, although Brooks's general play can't match Andrew John's yet, his defensive skills might be….

Fonuas D makes me nervous

 

[WT2K]

Was fantastic today, well done brooksie

 

[TCL]

I think Dogs were starting to work it out. He will always struggle against someone with real toe.

 

[Tigers17]

Can he kick tho…?

Outstanding from Luke today without him we don't win ...simple..

If I remember correctly Geo it was only you and me and a few others who stood by the "Little Champ", last year.

It was mentioned on fox coverage today that the tigers lead the stats on goal line dropouts forced on the opposition.This plus his defence makes him the best no 7 we have had probably since the JV i liked Prince but he was a awful defender.

There were a few..it was a tough job but somebody had to do it..

Now leading the NRL in repeat sets as well…I am told mostly flukes tho..

When the Bulldogs were on a roll and getting offloads away. I was watching Brooks cover the whole backline. It was tackle three or four for the Dogs, we were on the back foot.
About three Tigers when in (brooks one of them) the Dogs player got the ball away, Brooks kept chasing the play and when into the next ruck late where the dogs player had slip the ball out Brooks keep chasing . Eventually the play stopped as the Brooks herded them towards the sideline and the Tigers line was back in sync.
Even though all this happen on tackle three, the stats man would have marked down Brooks for three missed tackles on the one play. Even though he shut down the whole monument of the set.

 

[Love_the_WestsTigers]

He has blossomed this year and im sure 100% of the fans are proud of him

Im sure its the Benji -Cleary effect that is bringing the best out of him
