Sam Walker is showing how to do it albeit with a much stronger side around him.

Its his personnel performance and the will to win which is impressive ..

Hard to believe Sam Walker has only played 4 games . Brooksy has played how many ....150 +
 
Don’t just stop at Bringing Jackson Hastings back. Keep going. Widdop, Austin, Sezer. There are halves in the England comp with far stronger kicking games. We desperately need a change.
 
Did anyone notice that leilua try. If Cherry Evans hadn't bumped that grubber it would of gone dead by 5m or so. How can a bloke have such a pathetic short kicking game after doing it for 7 years?

We have NO kicking game ..
Punt him ..
Swap him with Madden .. couldn’t go any worse .

This is where I am Atm ..watched Madden today not a real fan but there has to be a statement made and as you say could not be any worse.
The halves are totally inept and needs fixing.

I’d drop brooks to Reggie’s but it’d be unfair on the Reggie’s team ..
Just make him 19th man ..
Sit him up in the coaches box for a game .
Might learn something?

Brooks and Doueihi worst halves partners in the comp. madden clearly has to come in. AD to centre

Must agree the Doueihi experiment is over he is no 5/8.
 
I will not waste my time attending another game this year while Brooks is our halfback, he is so structured he can no longer play what is in front of him. Today we dominated possession for the first 20 minutes and completed at 94% for most of the first half. Our sole try came from a kick that was heading for the crowd until deflected by Manly. Brooks spent most of that time hiding in attack at left centre preparing himself for his signature last tackle handover bomb. When the game was gone Brooks had an opportunity to score where he only had to step to his left and put the ball down over the line, but instead he threw a hospital pass to a player marked by three defenders. No wonder nobody supports him. Seriously if the opposition sat down on tackle six Brooks would still kick the ball straight down their throats. He is so structured he is totally predictable and thoroughly clueless. ESL awaits.
 
Three tries that killed us came after basically the same plays, run through huge holes.
Sadly our coach did not react at all, so there is a part of his responsibility, o the top of bad defence.
The other issues is the team selection, too much Sheensianism re the C-K, we have a better players in the NSW cup!
Our forwards again disappeared, when Utoikemanu was not there. Musgrave did not fill the gap, luckily we have a few forwards like Amone, or Dias .
Brooks unfortunately looks lost, and plays too predictable. A few games in the NSW cup might help to recover.
Mbye was useless, Liddle/Simpkin is much better combination.

IMHO, a few changes are required

Laurie
Nofoaluma
Cini
Roberts
Cooper
AD
Madden
Utoikemanu
Simpkin
Tamou
Tuilagi
L Leilua
Twal

Liddle
Dias
Musgrave
Simpkins
 
Gotta go. I don't care anymore. 8 years of this crap. Yeah we all know he has a blinder every now and again.

"If he can just do it week in week out..."

News flash, if he doesn't do it week in week out after 8 years he isn't going to ever.

I'm done. Stop falling for his one good game a month.
 
I feel for Brooksy , he just don’t measure up in the big league , he has had years to watch how good halves manage a footy team , we need to get someone who wants to win now
