Luke Brooks #167

[BAGNF05]

Luke is playing in a team that has a true number 7 to run the team leaving him to just concentrate on his own game.
For some reason our past management couldn’t work out how to utilise his best attributes.
Good luck to him.

Moses
Munster
Johnson x2
Widdop
Pearce
G Williams
Hastings
Cronk
Cleary
Etc. etc. etc.

They knew what they needed and tried.

And failed.

The msn sports section...

There you can find all the answers to life. A bit like the Warren Ryan Commission

Judges feeling sorry for him.

Maybe just not very good judges.

I thought Brooks looked the much better attacking player but Moses had the superior kicking game.
I don't think one set of halves out performed the other.

Moses 10/8 over brooks , if DCE and Turbo go down Brooks will fall in a heap as will manly

I agree but I tend to think you could say the same about most clubs (besides the very few that have quality backups).
Most recent and obvious example, Dylan Brown is a big money international 6. Eels attack was shit without Moses.

Better than ours. They created more chances...Our defence was the difference...

I'm surprised that we only play Manly once this year, and in round 25. Poor decision by the NRL for mine, they could have had two full houses and massive eyeballs on screens.

Haters quiet in this thread after rd 5 🙊

Cant wait to see him run out the tunnel come September. Baptism of Bearth. Manly will be there.

Round 25!

Brooks will have the Dalley M wrapped up before then.

Brooks was “nervous” before his first day of training at his new club but he has quickly settled in — it helps when fellow ex-Tigers’ Tommy Talau, Josh Aloiai, Aitasi James, Nathan Brown, Matthew Lodge, Taniela Paseka, and Aaron Woods are around.

Also coz his game plan from Seibold was in short sentences. Basically you go and stand outside DCE but leave enough room for Tommy Turbo to link in. Got it !

I can still remember Madge saying a few years ago that Brooksy would fit right into the Blues side. His form has been reasonable and DCE is not far off the pace with Dally M points? Ergo, Brooksy must be doing his job.

Maguire has the power to make his own prophecy a reality. Brooks may even change his mind about Maguires coaching style.

Surprise surprise, Manly’s attack looked clunky without Turbo & Saab and with a young fullback. They only found a game plan late, scoring 12 points in a close loss.

Reminds me somewhat of Sezer and Galvin this year trying to generate points in our team lacking any real attacking threat other than a young fullback.

Luai will be glad he’s bringing Suruva but I hope we are aware of the massive hole in our roster, another x-factor player who can generate points.
