Sums him up pretty well imo. Can't think on his feet, robotic answers, nervous, no presence, no personal accountability,no character, offers little.
I know you don't have to be a good talker to be a good footy player or vise versa, but man that was a cringeworthy as his clutch plays.
It shows me the coach doesn’t know how to use Brooks & is trying to put a round pet into a square hole. Brooks can play, he hasn’t played his natural style under Madge for 18mths. He has never been a leader. Even when he played juniors with Mitch, Mitch would bark the team around. He is being asked to be something he isn’t. He did get switched off and he is absolutely trying to play Madge ball but it isn’t his style of footy. He looks unco and without confidence to execute. Maybe that will change if we get some wins. Maybe Madge ball needs to evolve and let these guys play their natural game as well. Maybe Brooks needs to find a home where he fits in, under the right coach he would very good. With Hastings coming guess we will find out soon enough.
And maybe the question needed to be asked at the accountability lunch? Apparently Madge opened the floor to critique his coaching. Apparently the players were candid and honest in their response, then backed their coach on the field.
The case against Madge rests. Thank you .
Sure why not when he sacks players every 2nd week.
Can’t imagine too much was brought up.
Worth remembering that the players dropped were originally picked and have been found wanting.
Not sure what you want him to do, we are now 2 - 6, some players have not been playing to reserve grade standard, never mind first grade.
