Laurie, Brooks claim 2021 Kelly-Barnes Medal

[tony soprano]

My favorite Brooks moment was when he dropped the ball from the kick off in the Tommy game at Leichhardt.

I knew from that moment he would get player of the year......

I liked his little banana kick vs the dogs

Dude, you have run that horse into the ground

I'll never forget it and I don't want anyone else to either

You’ll probably get to see more of it with him in the 7 jersey next year.

Cody Walker threw an intercept that cost his team a GF. I’m sure Joey had some embarrassing moments too. Good luck with a halfback not prepared to play off the cuff.

That pass was way too hot heated. The photos today he's not even looking at Crichton.

I all fairness .. This club my god ..
Doueihi was player of the year and he wasn’t even close.
Daino 100% deserves it.
It's very strange how some clubs see some players.
WT - Luke Brooks

Just do not get it.

Replay Time Stamp- 53:10

In Game Time- 1:46 first half

Thank me later

Corey Thompson was players player in 2019 and then released before the start of 2020, maybe it’s a parting gift 😂

 

[Plisskin]

LOL
David Nofoaluma last year, Daine Laurie and Luke Books this year….this joint is in expert hands.
When your club’s best players are these guys, you are doomed for continued failure.

Is this a massive up-yours from the departing WT coaching staff to the supporters, or are they still trying to build Luke's confidence so he can do a Pinocchio and be a real halfback one day if they wish hard enough? Either way it is beyond a joke, the gnome needs an atomic punting.

 

[Celtic_Tiger]

It’s almost as if the club are deliberately trying to antagonise the members and fans.

I have no idea why they would want to do this but here we are.

Douehi was 7th out of the entire
comp in the NRL for Dally M player of the year

I don't get it either... Wouldn't have been my choice

It is a bit of a worry... He was puke with the ball.... Very courageous at times in defense but a half is mainly attack

 

[bigsiro]

Putting aside all the Brooks hate rhetoric, there is just no way he deserves this. Even to his most ardent fans this feels off.

Are management hoping fans are dumb enough to think that this award justifies his potential position in the team for 2022? What an insult.

Maybe it's for a better reason; to boost his plummeted value so that other clubs are dumb enough to take him off our hands.

Either way, it's a mockery of the award and to two of our greatest legends.
Shameful Tigers management. Give the award properly or not at all.
And have some respect.

 

[weststigerman]

Do you get points for not getting injured? That’s about all Brooks achieved this year.

Who votes for this stuff?

 

[tigerbalm]

That’s a real head scratcher.

Our genius head coach and the two genius assistants he appointed.

No wonder we can't win games, the coaches can't even tell who their best bloody players are!

Horrible pass. Agree. Jimmy Maloney was famous for a Clanger. The best halves live by the sword and die by the sword. Brooks problem is he makes an error and we’re Buckley’s chance to defend it so he’s forced to try harder.

Partly by the morons who just got sacked…

In a team full of pea hearts he is a small bloke who played every game, probably took the line on more than any halfback in the Comp and whacks blokes better than our mattress like second rowers. Laurie and AD probably win if they stay on the pitch all year.

I like it when Brooks makes clangers. It means he has made a decision in attack, which is in stark contrast to his resting state of freezing like a stunned mullet.

That is a ridiculously sugary take on how Luke plays football.

Probably as stunned as me by the clubs retention over the years .

3 undeniable facts though

Sickeningly sweet!
