Brooks' worst performance

[earl]

"big 5"…its a laugh. The reality is we have a "big 1" with potential for maybe one of the others to join Ted.

We have Tedesco who was outplayed by Moylan today and Moylan isn't a good player.

I hope the big 5 keep holding out on their contracts because it at least provides motivation. There was not much of that today. Busy reading the Tele?

After we get pumped by Canberra again next Sunday we have probably knocked a good 25% of 2-5's contract offers.

That is the silver lining, their bargaining power will decrease.

Teddy only gets outplayed a couple of times a year. The other 4 get outplayed regularly.
Moylan is a good player when his forwards give him opportunity. They demolished our pigs today.

Brooks was crap
Moses was crap
Nofa was crap
Woods was okay
Teddy is a class above

We have gone from a game last week where I couldn't fault anyone's effort to a game this week where there was barely a highlight performance. See if they can turn it around next week. W seriously lack some direction. We got schooled by an even more inexperienced halves poring today. Broses have a lot of work to do to convince they can lead a team around.

Ps what the hell happened with our bench rotation today? I didn't spot Aloiai until the last 10 and can barely recall Edwards. Expecting way too many minutes out of players not even close to being 80mim players. We can't carry all of Idris, chee Kam, suli and sue for long minutes.
Hopefully cooler in Canberra next week.

I agree. Tedesco is a proven player. Woods is also proven but I don't think he is worth huge dollars. Brooks and Moses are all over the place.

As far as attack goes, no one clicked today, we bombed several tries through poor execution, dropping the ball over the line, forward passes etc. Defensively though Brooks was shocking, whereas Moses stuck to most of his tackles today.

And that is where the Club will continue to make there mistakes and continue to offer Contracts on Potential and paying huge overs in the process.
Brooks needs to be let go and if he blossoms somewhere else big deal many have blossomed once they have left our Club Austin and Te Marie Martin come to mind and all because we continue to pay overs on Potential.

What do you expect from an Amateurish Organisation.

Amen. Austin was playing well in 2015 and was let go for someone with potential. Two years later and he's still playing well and we're still waiting.

 

[bigsiro]

So Brooks has 1 good 1 bad game for the year. It's not like everyone else was fantastic today.

1 avg game and 1 bad game

 

[Defiant]

Even worse Austin was considered behind Anasta by Potter. For this alone Potter deserved the boot!

We have no bargaining power. The worst part is they will still all get massive offers if we loose by 50 each week.

They wont get massive offers if they keep playing like today and the the end of 2016.

And that would be a damn shame

 

[gallagher]

Would he be close to not getting offered a contract at all by the club?

This.
No bargaining power… Weve nothing to offer the best players OR coaches.
No money.... Crap training facilities... 3 home grounds... A dodgy culture with soft underbelly, an average coach... We make up the numbers

There will be clubs who'd take him, but their offers won't be very flattering.

I think there would be clubs willing to pay him bloody good money. I'm just not sure if it's time we either cut him loose or put a time limit on our offer.

I'd say the dogs would offer big $$ with their halves and big pack.

 

[supercoach]

What 6 and 7 have good games when the forwards are getting smashed??? Brooks did not play well but have a look at the game, every set for the whole game Penrith were a mile off side and in the ruck they slowed the play the ball down. So that just about stuffs our game with the style of football we play.

Penrith were willing to concede a million penalties just to win the ruck. The ref should have had the balls to use the sin bin. I am not sure we would have won, but what little chance was blown out of the water by the ref

 

[TIGER]

Once again when things don't go our way Brooks is nowhere to be seen.
Get involved Brooks whether we're go well or not, have a bloody go!!!!!!.
I praise him when he deserves it, but from day one I've struggled to see what all the fuss was about with him.

Please Tigers don't make the same mistake as you did with Benji and keep waiting for him to come good.
Let him go it's not gonna happen.
