What I will say for Brooks is he still needs better options in the backrow and centres. Almost nobody runs a line for him, runs to a decent hole, which is exactly the foundation of Souths' current success (via Cody Walker) and Tigers' previous success under Benji. Brooks probably will never have that soft passing game, but since Chris Lawrence left, the quality of our attacking options out wide has disappeared.
Papalii and To’a are quality. Are you suggesting that Brooks needs another better centre and backrower to finally be at an acceptable level?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but how is your argument different to that of the MO of all Brooks apologists, which is basically blaming every tool in the shed for him being a poor craftsman.
