Brooks’s defence has improved heaps but his attack has peaked …
What you seen today is pretty much what we’ll get ...

Agreed, I just can't see him getting any better than what he has shown.

He went missing today

If we signed Cleary…
Who would partner him in the 6 tho?

Benji, one foot out the door....
Reynolds? Can't even play a full season and isn't gonna get any less injury prone.

Well what I saw today Brooks might as well have played 5/8\. He was non existent in the middle and only ever got involved in sweeping backline plays.

Maybe he is auditioning for the role

Brooks is a bit of a weirdo.
Likes to play the background.
Not a leader in any way.
Let Cleary steer the ship and lazy Luke can chime in when he sees fit.
 
Well, my take
His defence has improved but he still starts to panic and thinks he needs to win the game for us
Brooks really needs some calming influence around him otherwise we will never see his true potential . Next to a Cronk he would shine like a diamond, right now he is more rock.

Our spine is alright atm…
1\. Mbye
6\. Reynolds
7\. Brooks
9\. Farah

On paper is really good.
Bench is weak. Forwards are painfully weak.
Twal is the only front rower having a go and Lawrence deserves a grand final ring but these other guys are pathetic.

Aloiai? Packer? Matulino? Mck? McQueen? Sue?
Whyyyyyyy.

I like thompson. He had a bad game. Mwz was never had a good game. First grade debut at 25? There's a rsn for that.

Yes, we only have 2 forwards, Lawrence and Twal, worth their salt…the rest are rubbish...

Didnt learn a thing from the Adam Blair signing.
A player coming for money?
We need players coming with the desire to win.

OK..

Can he take our pack of powderpuff bar Rowdy with him..?

I am so over your backing of him, he has been a major flop, every time we need him to take control as he wanted, he has failed, 100 odd games and he still has no idea. :deadhorse:

**We need players coming with the desire to win.**

They sign with other clubs, like Roosters

Lol..what we need is a "Pack" of Forwards, and not a bunch of forwards. The last few months half the pack are just numbers and the other half id that have to carry them. Our backs have no chance!!!

Were the forwards the ones dropping all the ball?

I don’t know to be honest, didn’t see much of them or I should say they didn’t see much of the ball.

Then again you are also right about the dropped balls… just upset with the whole team. Did not get the simple stuff right!

Well let’s look forward to 2019! Will be a better year!

Yeah mate just rewatched it was the backs and halves pushing passes.

Forwards can always improve and cleary rotation questionable but it was the backs and halves getting exited in attack that cost us big time. Not good enough l.

It can't be Brooks fault, it is never Brooks fault, he has only had 100 games he is still learning :deadhorse:

With benji back is it time to send him to reserves to have a think about what the hell he is doing.

Have a think how well he played whilst our forwards controlled things.
Same with Benji … his game fell away when there was no room to think.
Find it hard to understand that some people don’t understand how this game operates.
It’s same with Cronk at Roosters .... Storm forward pack not around him and his form is down.

Stop posting here you make far too much sense for most of the people on here.

Meh, the forwards bar Rowdy are crap, finger should be pointed at them first

One of the few pieces of commonsense mentioned today.

You can say whatever you think about Marshall … he has proved himself and previously been named the best player in the world.
Brooks?
Not so much.

it wasn’t about that is was about how well Brooks was playing when our forwards were dominating the opposition, some people on here were even saying why sign NC the way Luke was playing.
Now that our forwards are being dominated he looks average, just like NC yesterday when his forwards got smashed.

You seriously think he was anywhere in the top 10 halves even then?
 
We should chase Matt Frawley. Basically have the rest of the dogs spine, no wonder we are garbage.
