Luke Brooks - Mega Thread

[bigsiro]

I understand where you're coming from but he's never played a game at 6 like Brooks did today. He's a good centre though. I think that's his spot TBH.

Now that is just fake news.

Don’t even know what that means.

google it lovey

Some peopel are unable to appreciate a great game from one of our players. Haters.

I appreciated it. Was a good game.
Not sure what’s the point of his message other than to drum up an argument. 🙄

Brooks had one of his best days with the pressure off. Still he made 24 meters and missed 5 tackles. Keeping the seat warm for Douehi

Agreed. Punt him.

Can't you haters give it a rest for at least one night? Give credit where it's due.

We won the game for goodness sake. And still you want to go on and on about one of our best players.

I think people have acknowledged Brooks played well..

I haven't mentioned AD as a 6.

Last year when he moved to centre there were games where he didn't get the ball. We simply aren't a team that can afford to have one of our better players in a spot that allows that.

Totally agree. The only reason I'm not sold on AD at 13 is that Joe O has been great in that role and I'm worried AD won't be able to give 80 minutes in the middle.

We need AD and Hastings involved. Brooks was good today but he needs to back it up.

Brooks was really good today....while Im at it,Laurie will get better,he is mentally dealing with the carry over broken leg he had last year...improvement noticed today...

Facts.

As suspected for many years, Brooksy's natural game lends itself to the freedom of 5/8.
Simpkins looked really good out of dummy half.
Hastings was great at halfback and team leader.
Laurie finally started backing up in the middle of the field.
The spine looked really good and almost looked like they had been playing together for quite a while.

Q. What do we do with Adam Doueihi when he returns?
Brooks is a better 5/8.
Laurie better at the back.
Our backrow is settled and consistently our strength.
He may have to go into the centres? Not ideal.

I'd be tempted to put him at 13 as a ball player and run 4 forwards on the bench

Redhot 🔥

Redhot 🔥

Though given our luck with injuries it's probably a terrible idea haha

 

[Milky]

Played well today but lets see how he goes moving forward

Doueihi won’t be back for another 10 weeks, make an evaluation then

Is, was and always will be....

Not a halfback.

Good game Luke.
Very solid.
Keep up the good work.

 

[earl]

It was so good seeing him kill it.

 

[haberfield_tiger]

Luke had one of his better games today. Hats off. But I think Douhie will be our long term 5/8. Hastings and Douhie will be formidable combination...

 

[TCL]

Punt Him!

played well today as did most. Hastings was great as well. Think our attacked went backwards when simpkins come off and brooks went to 9 and madden come on.
