Its been fun but.....

100%.
Brooks will get in his road.
You know and I know it but the majority will claim otherwise....

Old mate said it best earlier tonight.

It'll be great to see the end of the Brooks, Nofo, Liddle era of the Tigers.
 
I'll play the @GNR4LIFE role in his absence..

Madge has never dropped Brooks. He's never played NSW cup. When he was dropped, he played in the 7 jersey from the bench. Madden, HA. No chance.

Words to that effect.
I'd love to see that happen tho.

Brooks, Nofo and Liddle... times up.
Why isn't @GNR4LIFE playing himself ? @Demps

I said a couple of weeks ago that Brooks will improve this year,Hastings will definately help his game no end...Brooks ran more tonight than all of 2021 I reckon and that is the best part of his game ...I will stand corrected if he doesnt play far better this year...he just needs to fix his kicking game more...Hastings even said tonight in the interview that Brooks is a good footy player....lets wait and see,we have been waiting this long,whats another season with him here...

Have you ever heard anyone publicly.... other than on this forum ... say that Brooks isn't a good footballer ? 🤔

I was merely stating what Jacko said,Brooks has his knockers and as I have said before,he hasnt had much of a chance to show his true potential while in 9 years with us because of having chopped and changed partners most of his career as well as the club icon overcalling him most of his games when they were together..
I would really like Luke to be able to play his natural game without the pressure every game,Jackson will help him heaps....

I would take the kicking and general organisation duties from him at a minimum.
Just run Forrest, run.
 
I think if you watch the game again, you'll find that the Madden over Brooks talk is confirmation bias.

There's so much to unpack from that game. Namely, stopping Vaseline being rubbed on everyone's hands in the shed.
 
Because it was basically their state Cup Team playing at the end and we had dominated the game to that point where we had 61 tackles in their 20 by that stage. Far different than what Brooks faced.

That said, I love Brooksy but if I could bet him to kick a grubber into the legs over 1 a game I'd be a rich man.
This is what Brooksy sees when there is 1 defender inbetween him and the tryline

I'd say a lot of people saw madden come on late and play at top speed when the rest of the field had been slogging it out on a heavy track in poring rain for an hour...easy to stand out....
Best I've seen madden play a coueple of nice runs... Brokks had some good runs too
 
Crazy to think we were missing AD, Blore and Twal...

Other options like Talau, AJ, Garner and Mikaele.

And we've got a good group of promising youngsters coming through like Dillon, Tannous, Tupou, Pole, Christian, Webster Mansfield and many more.

Our roster is very underrated.
A few smart changes and it can be quite elite I believe.

Surely we’re shopping Garner
 
Plain as day now once Brooks went off and Madden came on we started to run away with the game time to have the honest talk and for the betterment of the club move him on. Boys like Rua , Madden , Logen Dillion are pushing for the first grade spots Rua has given more in 100 minutes than Liddle has in 56 games
You really know your footy.
 
You really know your footy.
💯

We got solutions to our problems and all we have to do is look in our backyard.

To'a > Nofo
Madden > Brooks
Babybel > Liddle

Some slick trades could be made and we could still come out on top.

Limitless possibilities.

Brooks for... Mitch Barnett.
Nofo for... Briton Nikora
Liddle for... Topine.

Just examples.
