Luke Brooks #167

This weekend marks a very special milestone for Brooksy, and obviously a very emotional occasion for his beloved family & friends who will be in attendance at the game. Therefore, I ask that each and everyone of you to simply please keep your negative comments/opinions on a low or simply don't post at all (except anything positive !). I Do not want to see any negative threads on the forum for the duration of the weekend. I will be ignoring it.

Let the guy enjoy and embrace his moment.

All the best,

Congrats 200

👏🏻
Agree, it's a milestone he will look back on later in life.

If there is a banner provided for him to run through let's hope it is thinner than the last one.

Lol get stuffed.
He should be on his knees thanking everyone for his sustained employment.
Happy 200th game Luke. Commiserations on your 125th loss….

The fact that it's constantly been reported that
he doesn't read social media or commentary
about himself says a lot in my opinion. He can't
read the room and is stuck up his own ass in
his own little marshmallow world. A few home
truths & constructive criticism could have
changed the course of his career instead of
treating him like a man-child and pandering
to his whims. 200 games and 10 years as a
tiger with no finals is 1 hell of a record to hold ...

Piss off

2-8

Absolutely embarrassing someone with park talent is playing 200 NRL games, the guy is a complete embarrassment across the league.

"Let the guy enjoy and embrace his moment"

While Tigers fans want to commit Hara-kiri after another loss directly caused by him being completely incompetent at his job.........yeah, let him enjoy the moment, stuff the fans though. If I was getting paid a million dollars a year to play like poo for 80 mins a week with zero consequences or accountability I wouldn't care if we win or lose either. The guy has made his whole career out of it. Zero passion for the Tigers, just him precious self.

You perfectly epitomise everything that is wrong with this club.

Careful Winston " the old saying ...TRUTH HURTS" may make some on here angry...It makes people like Paws leave the forum because of embarrasment or it could make others create new accounts like Earl,either way everything is opinion based,its just some cant see that an opinion other than theirs is just as valuable during a sensible discussion...
 
Hope he has a cracker.... It may be very fortunate it just happened to be at LO.... or it could be a nightmare

I do recall a game there think it was an important one... Few years back... We got hammered... ... He was interviewed at full time on touchline in front of the main stand and he was copping it left right and center.. It was hard to watch and brought home to me these guys are human, I get as frustrated with our impotent attack as anyone but I know he's trying his best it's just not enough... I blame sheens for dragging this long term slow mo peeling off the band aid.... Brooks needs a new club new coach new everything

Now that you have mentioned it, his 37.5% overall win record doesn't look too bad when you look at where we stand these last 2 seasons.
 
think he stays, if you were tigers no need to rush anything the longer they wait the cheaper the deal can be as he gets closer to the new season, I reckon he signs on for 500k or so as a 6.
Huge paycut.
Would you stay somewhere that took that much pay from you?

think he wants to stay one club player mate, doesn't want to go to SL.
Yeah think he stays
if for example you land Johnson then pressure all goes on him then he becomes the whipping boy
 
Lol ‘doesn’t look too bad’
Wests Tigers summed up in one phrase.
Put that on a t-shirt.
When you are looking purely at statistics, which is what I was doing, then of course 37.5% doesn't look too bad.

I would not have thought that the overall percentage was that high when you consider the team's win rate of only around 16% last season and currently about 20% this season, results which would have brought the overall average down considerably.

The point I was attempting to make was that if we had that higher winning percentage carry on to last season and this current season, we probably would win twice as many games last season and would have an extra win or two up our sleeve this season.

What this basically means is that we don't get the spoon last season and we are not coming last this season and are only a win or two out of the 8 with a side showing signs of improvement.

Might have to put that on a T-shirt.

What size do you take? Could probably send you one.

I would probably not be all that happy, but if there isn't any other offer out there what are you going to do?

Could always do worse than maybe wear the 6 on your back, have someone else cop all the heat as the chief play maker and just keep on going through the motions.

500k is still not exactly peanuts and if he hasn't set himself up for life on what he has made out of playing rugby league then he has no one to blame but himself.

If he achieves nothing else in the game, there is still the bragging rights of being a one team player if Wests Tigers actually decide to keep him on, and the record books will still show that he was a Dally M half back of the year plus numerous years of being the Clubs Player's Player of the Year.

+ a proven decade of losing

Facts over feelings

My patience/tolerance is gone with this lot that pretend they care about the club while not giving two shits.

I understand your point that 37% doesnt look too bad considering how diabolical the Luke Brooks halfback team looks at the moment but when you finish 9th 100 times you can polish a turd real nice. Teddy, Farah, Benji, Moses and whoever arent here now helping to lift the team off the bottom to being middle of the road. The last 2-3 seasons the pure Brooks era is where the Tigers are at now and until they sign a competent half its where they are staying and that stat will be 25% real soon if they re-sign this peanut.
