Lol come on… the environment changed regularly.
His performances never did.

The club has a whole sucked throughout that time. It has for the better part of nearly 25 years.

The environment was absolutely horrendous for years and that’s why they just put a broom through the place.

Yet quite a few players managed to thrive.
How many rose from nothing to internationals here?

As in Australia, England or NZL?

Name them in brooksy’s time.

He said in the past 25 years so that’s what I was speaking to.

Nah-That was just Pascoe with a dust pan and brush cleaning out the demountables.

The original argument was about the environment Brooksy played in. I struggle to think of anyone other than Teddy who rose to prominence during that time. And he obviously left shortly thereafter.

Yes, you were sooking that Brooks was hard done by and I said no, he is just a shit footballer.
I win.

And it’s attitudes like yours that make people want to see the bloke do well at manly. You can’t argue he’s played in good football sides, all you can do is sink the slipper in.

Will this thread continue when the new season starts?

I’d say it’ll run in tandem with the punt Sezer one.

Oh get stuffed lol…
He is a major reason our club is a joke in the rugby league world and a punchline amongst our peers.

Yeah, nah.

Respectfully disagree. I’d say we were on a trajectory towards success until management let his three mates go and completely derailed the train or bus or dumpster fire, whatever you want to call it.

 

[Tucker]

Yeah, nah.

Incorrect.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Incorrect.

You say all that, and we still tried to re-sign him again. At the end of the day, he’s the one that kicked us to the curb. What’s that say about us?

That certainly didn’t help, but he wasn’t setting the comp alight even with them here.

The media branded them a big four, maybe unfairly, but that’s the way it was. Someone in “the environment “ thought he was a million dollar player.

He couldn’t elevate a poor roster, wasn’t a leader, I’m happy to leave it at that and back him to go better at Manly.

Bring on Luai and 2025.

I can’t speak as to why they did that, but no one was knocking on the door to take the reigns here and it was likely a “better the devil you know” type decision so we didn’t waste the pack we were building.
Id suggest him rejecting us was always going to happen unless we gave him Luai dosh.
