Luke Brooks #167

Same people who carried on about Madge, and nothing changed when he left either. Some people just need a scapegoat or someone to hate on. Maybe they didn’t get told they were loved as kids. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Fact is NRL is 30 man squad and ours has been shite for a very long while.
It's a giggle isn't it....
Madge got punted, All and Sundry were banging on about how we'd see some "Good Tigers Attacking Footy" with him gone... Are we averaging like 2-3 Tries a game since? - Real Attacking Threat...

Same with the Bombs going down the Opposition throat...
When you're generally kicking from inside your own half - There's not many options to get position....
and with 2-3 back, and that much hang time, It's ALWAYS going down someones throat....
Same used to happen to Pearce in origin.
I used to (And Still do) love our Kick Chase.... 2-3 trotting down in a line and stopping and waiting at the 30m mark for them to come back to us.... (it makes me vomit) Meanwhile we're stuck rucking out with a set line from 10m set after set....
Started with Taylor and I can't believe we're still doing it after all these years.

Back to your point, A kick is only as good as it's chase (Elford '05 GF still warms my heart)
And our kick chase is Putrid....

We did it relentlessly on the weekend and it had an effect almost every time - Go Figure....

I think u forgot the kicking the ball dead .early in the game bit .not having a shot at u .just brooks
 
7th v 9th this weekend with a spot in the top eight up for grabs in NQ. Manly get their stars back. Will the little bloke redeem himself after a pretty tough slog against Souths or will it be more scrutiny on Brooks/Seibold.

Looking forward to seeing how he copes in these meaningful games.

That backline is red hot. He has his chance.
 
With 95 “Luke Brooks” threads it’s not surprising one gets revived every so often. Especially now that he’s playing good footy. There were many times during his Tigers years when he was the only threat in our team. We finally fixed that little problem. 😜

Two months to show the world whether he was a dead weight or just a small part of a big problem.
