Luke Brooks - Mega Thread

For me I want to see the following from Brooks

1) Run the ball at least 4 times a game in a direct attack the line way
2) Long kicks find the ground and edges (don't wait until the last if he gets space drive the kick)
3) Bombs only occur when our backs are engaged with intent to compete for the bomb
4) Work and run the middle forward structure & be in support
5) Feed hastings before the 4/5th so the centers can see some ball

I know its easy to want to punt Brooks,just ask Hobbo,but to be honest I was on the hype train after his debut and thought ,beauty we are set...BUT he didnt really have a partner that let him do his job,Moses stood over him,Benji was a club icon so Luke let him do most of the work because he didnt want to overshadow a legend that overcalled him most of the time then he had some also rans beside him and had to do a lot of defending as well as having a weak forwards pack reshuffled for ages not laying a good platform for him...
I HONESTLY think that Jacko will be great for Brooks and we will see a far better halfback than what we have seen,dont forget Madge backs him all the time and with Sheens here I reckon he will have a much better year...Im not saying that TS will coach him but I bet he will help and advise him as only Sheens can...just my opinion,I have been with this club long enough to not get to hyped up anymore,let alone on a trial result...

Brooks played his absolute worst footy when he WASN'T getting overcalled etc. Blaming Benji and Robbie is a joke and proves the bloke is a terrible halfback. Halfback is the onfield general. He's like the Quarterback in the NFL. Brooks' best footy has been when he has played alongside someone who has done most of his job for him like Moses or Benji. Hastings might be great for him but that will be because Hastings is the true Halfback despite Brooks impostering with that number on his back

Moses and Benji have wrecked Lukes career...Moses is a slime and Benji is a club icon that was all for himself....
Brooks has talent but its a cutthroat business and Benji wasnt going to let someone take his spotlight...
Brooks will show how good he is if Hastings backs him up and doesnt overcall him as Benji did which I dont think he will..
Pull your head out of the sand and understand the big arena and how it works...
Luke will be far better this year without the glory hunters alongside of him...the other partners he has had have been overated or inexperienced...he has the opportunity to show his best THIS YEAR...and if he doesnt then you will be justified in your calculations....
wise man told me once "never judge a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes"..
and from reading your observation I doubt you have walked 10 feet in Lukes shoes if any....

6) Find the in goal area and not the opponents legs with carefully weighted kicks that result in points or repeat sets. (like he used to do once upon a time)

You’re the goon that needs to sober up .. lay off the Aldi red !

As for Brooks you could play him in the NSW side and he’d still be useless as ever …punt him

Aldi Pinot Grigio mate $4.99 and its good...as far as Brooks goes,he has been death ridden for years because of Benji and others...I was a knocker until I seen the real picture..If Luke went to another club such as Melb,Manly or Roosters the coaches there would have players around him that would benefit his game,unfortunately he has had various coaches with various ideas and results...he has copped the rough end of the pineapple for years...some can see it others can please themselves..
 
To consider 2022 a success, Luke Brooks must do the following:
  1. He must have at least 1 try assist per game.
  2. Miss 3 or fewer tackles per game.
  3. Finish the season with more than 50 try assists.
  4. Top the Dally M voting tally.
  5. Be voted Sydney's most handsome man.
  6. Run for parliament.
  7. Win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Only then will I consider licking his bootlaces.

I'm confused if that's a like or dislike 🤔
Are you putting the same criteria for all the other players in their respective positions?
Chad there is hope. 😸
