Luke Brooks #167

Holy glue sniff, we had 45 tackles in their 20 to their 8. We dominated field position completely... how on earth can you blame our pack and not Brooks hahahaha
If Hastings was playing halfback we score points,,,but shove him off to Newy and keep the gnome for another 5 or so seasons...deadset braindead and that goes for the dumb boys club that have a second/third chance at stuffing the club again...when WTs get rid of the old culture and getting professional we win games ...keep livimg in the past by employing club icons that won a gf 18 yrs ago and you get what we got today,,,200 passes a day ,,absolutely laughable.our main guys couldnt hold a cupcake let alone a football....

I'm really hoping this isn't true, but it's what I've been thinking all off season. It's only round 1 so here's hoping
 
Im waiting for paws to tell me how bad Madge and Hastings are because we got the spoon...now we have his icons at the club with great recruiting and a fantastic style of play that we havent seen under Madge...AND YET WE ARE STILL LOSING GAMES...

BUT wait its only rnd 1 give them a chance to gel and get used to each other....
HOME TRUTH they are highly paid professional footballers.if they cant get the basics right move the useless bastards on ....
 
Looks like Brooks is no longer allowed to kick for touch or put up those last tackle bombs that he is famous for, that doesn't leave a lot for him to do other than to appear totally clueless. Today his role was to get involved when we looked likely to score but for his involvement. Dead horse being flogged for another season.

That first 10/15 mins when we were 2 pts up and threatening their line our GUN players,especially the GUN 1/2 back had no idea how to convert opportunity into points...we had possesion and ground and we came away with nothing....
Yep great boys club coaching and capitalising on opportunity....

I just saw Brooks' tackle efficiency on NRL.com was 57.14% (8/14), the lowest in the team. Isn't defence supposed to be what he is least bad at?

Believe it or not his defence was the best part of his game today,the rest of it was terrible.I am someone who tries to not rubbish him too much but with all our posession and 45 tackles in the Titans quarter zone he delivered nothing.Probably his most disappointing game in many years.

missed 6 tackles - equal game high
 
It is groundhog day...it honestly is...

We have had this discussion for years.

Nothing will change whilst Luke is 7.

He can't control a set in opp 20. Never has been able to.

He can run and play broken field footy, but that won't win many games.

The 7 HAS to control the set when forwards get you down there. He can't. He has never been able to. It won't change...
It must feel really weird to be one of those people who were holding onto the hope for him these last 4 or 5 years. It's been clear for so fapping long
