It has to end...

[tiger_one]

Brooks - everything said is sadly true. He shows effort but has no confidence.
Doueihi - has not recovered from injury from last year, and his efforts trying to take control are sadly lacking.

 

[Demps]

Every time Laurie kicks the ball, he kicks it dead. That’s what worries me with him at 6.

Laurie joins the others as simply not first grade standard.

He does not have the smarts to play in the spine.

Brooks won’t be getting dropped unfortunately if the post game conference means anything, Sheens basically praised him for making a couple of half breaks and just getting pulled down by the jersey….

 

[old_man_tiger]

trust me he will be in first grade next week, Sheenius ke t him at the club and left go Hastings it will be egg on his face if he dro s him.. he was beyond bad tonight, i just dont know where we go from here,,,im actually s eechless on his first half it was the worst half of football i have ever seen from a half..if the bloke gets signed again for next year im out, i just kee going through this for much longer with him at our club

You really need a Peeeeee


Edit - I agree with you though

His attempted tackle on Howarth near our try line was pathetic to say the least

 

[Tucker]

I have never hated on a player like I do with him. TBH it's not his fault- he should have been moved on but no like an ageing hooker with the clap he just keeps on getting rolled out.

Don’t compare him to sweet old Rosie…

 

[Demps]

The wise said we'll never win a comp with Brooks.

I fear it's much worse though.
We may never win another game with him either.

He did this week direct a comment at the press conference on continued poor option taking though as well.

I would be surprised if he is dropped, he should be though.

 

[Spartan117]

The idiots will resign him


We the fans say NO More.

 

[earl]

I wonder how often a thread like this has come up. Brooks is a threat when he runs the ball. He is fast. We have no fast players. It's hard to drop him.

I get all the issues.

Still it's his final contract year and you can't resign him.

haha yea that letter doenst work on my com ter, very frustrating let me tell you

 

[weststigerman]

To think we could have given him to Newcastle and kept Hastings.

 

[Pascoes_barber]

Brooks is a threat when he runs the ball.

He's not though. Keeps getting tackled on the fifth with absolutely nothing happening.

Completely thoughtless, week in week out.

 

[choiboi]

We are the only club stupid enough to persist with boo-rooks.

F this club

 

[Lukic]

Brooks is pretty fast off the mark but what's remarkable to me is how often he hits the accelerator and .... just gets tackled pretty easily.

Like half the time when a Munster, Luai, Walker do it, they break a tackle and maybe make half a break and create an opportunity. They actually time their runs and create uncertainty in the defence's minds. Brooks just runs without knowing what he's doing most of the time and just gets swallowed by a big guy farily easily.

Food for thought, Melbourne did that all game.

 

[ToddSanchez]

He was diabolical tonight. Has to be his last game as a Tiger for me. I have no problem with him taking his salary from the sideline. He needs the change as much as we do.

We need to draw a line in the sand - no player should get picked in first grade at Wests Tigers after an individual performance like that ever again.

There is nothing nice about criticising someone like this. The fact that he deserves it is the only
thing that makes me ok with it.

 

[Pascoes_barber]

Food for thought, Melbourne did that all game.

They were also
* ahead on the scoreboard all game
* throwing the ball through numerous sets of hands trying to make something happen and score points.

 

[Tiger-ferret]

They were also ahead on the scoreboard all game.

Of course. They were in control. Just not very Melbourne (or any club) like.

Probably a reflection of where they see us as opposition. We’ll just beat ourselves.

So does Brooks
