Jock Madden

[gallagher]

If the club should get Brooks to another club and keep Madden on the books... it'd be a genius move for strengthening the roster.

Would be one of the better moves in a long time.

Great way to balance out the cap. Get a cheaper player to do a similar job

Not saying Brooks is the saviour, just better than anything else we have, replace him with munster and I won't argue

But he’s not .. he’s a dumb player and he can’t play what’s in front of him . He’s a robot .
Madden does a better job at 1/4 of the price .
180 games with Brooks is enough.. time to punt him .

Madden was great tonight. Easily his best game in firsts. Jackson is clearly the leader out there and helps his halves partner which was obvious when he was off and Madden didn’t take the reigns during that period. I’m saying that he’s developing well into first grade (only about 5/6 starting games).

Keep him, Madden was good and only just getting started

You don't want to lose him but he deserves a starting spot. I reckon he is still a back up here. Surely a team can give him a starting spot.

LOL what...

He has been replaced.
7 Jackson Hastings

If Adam wasn't injured, Brooks might’ve been at a different club this year.
If Madden has a few more games like tonight, Brooks might be sitting on the bench for 70 mins a game.

I'll spell it out, as a 5/8.

AD may turn out to be better, but he's slow, a hog and average defended, jury's still out if he can improve his game to be the superstar you think he is.

He's a hog yet he tabled the clubs top try assists.

How does that work ?

Let it go mate.
Brooks lost the 7 and its only time before he loses the 6 too.

AD is a good player but I can see him becoming a super sub with that knee. He won't walk into the 13 because Ofahengaue has been one of our best for many games.

I haven’t mentioned Doueihi so what are you on about ?

Madge has him pencilled into the 17 but yeah no rush with him.

If Madden has a few more impressive weeks I really think Madge / the club needs to re visit shopping Brooks.

By 2..

Are we counting TRY assists now..

Haha, I was replying to Demps

 

[Kelce68]

Wouldn't be so sure of that....

Dolphins need a half.
Knights probably regret losing him with their options this year.
Dogs could use him.

I think he has options.

Remember that Dolphins will have Sean Sullivan and Milford next year... So he's not guaranteed there either.

Milford isn't confirmed yet, is he?

That's a terrible halves pairing 😂
Suits their terrible roster though.

That is crap talk mate Madden is Ordinary , where u get all these impressive weeks from is beyond me

Not yet, but I think it's a pretty safe bet.

And yeh, woeful haha

Today will be the first of many.

His time to shine.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Really good game from Jock struggled a bit without Hastings but considering we were down to 12 it’s to be expected. I’d love to keep hold of him but it’s either him or Brooks it seems he’s certainly better value for money. Wish him the best either way seems like a good kid.

If he is good as you think mate then he will keep Douehi out 😂

 

[tony soprano]

Brooks talk 🥱

I think there'll be a plan in place for Adams return...

Maybe from the bench, maybe at centre....

He'll be eased back into the game.
Build his fitness up.
