No one will be buying Brooks as their first choice halfback.
He needs to be our 14, he provides good value and a starting 14 has a better value in the open market than a Third/fourth choice half.

People are arguing over things they have no control over. Social media in a nutshell.

Wests Tigers head of football Tim Sheens has rejected speculation that Luke Brooks faces being axed for the club’s next game.
Brooks’ short-term future is under scrutiny amid suggestions he would be dropped for the club’s next game against the Warriors in Auckland on July 3.
Talk around Brooks’ performances heightened after Wests Tigers’ 36-12 loss to Canterbury last weekend.
“He has definitely not been dropped,” Sheens said. “How can he be dropped when we haven’t picked a team?
“I’ve spoken to ‘Noddy’ (interim coach Brett Kimmorley) and I’m telling you now, the kid hasn’t been dropped.
“Discussions have been around quite a number of players who didn’t play well. Nothing will happen until selection next Tuesday, until after Luke gets through training this week and with what happens over the weekend (the representative round).
“It’s up to ‘Noddy’ to make the decisions on what the side looks like but all I’m saying at the moment is that Luke hasn’t been dropped. If he’s dropped, or not dropped, that Noddy’s call but no decision has been made on who is playing and who isn’t playing.”
Brooks continues to attract criticism that the club claims is deeply unfair.
“He’s a big boy – he will take it,” Sheens said.
Sheens revealed prop Alex Twal would visit a specialist later this season but was bracing for a long off-field rehabilitation.
Twal was badly concussed early in the match against Canterbury on Sunday and had to be taken from the field by a medicab.
The club wouldn’t predict Twal’s length of absence but some believe it could be up to 12 weeks given he has been concussed previously this year.
“He’s had a number (of concussions this year) and it was a bad one,” Sheens said. “He was completely out. The specialist is going to talk to him later on this week and then we will know. The main thing is his health.”
Sheens denied talk that Parramatta forward Nathan Brown would shift to Concord immediately after being told he was free to leave by the Eels.
Parramatta has offered Brown to rival clubs for the rest of this year and next season.
“He has been offered around but we won’t do anything until we have a coach,” Sheens said. “We haven’t moved on anyone until we sort out who our leader will be.”

He's got the speed to create the line break . . . but line breaks need speed and brains.
Talking about it on NRL Tonight.
No one knows anything
Very excited to see how this plays out.
Big call for Noddy.
Hopefully he backs it and tries something different.
Nothing to lose.
