I think that with todays news regarding Madge, this may be a pivotal point in Luke Brooks career. I think if he doesnt make some improvements he may be pushed out or to 6 or 9.

What does everyone else think? I think its worthy of some discussion.

I keep saying with the new rules Brooks is a lock. The position suites him and he would be very good at it as well. More chance of making SOO at lock than anywhere else.

Still some thinking needs to be done at modern lock and I think he's shown enough for me to say he ain't no thinker!
I am starting to warm to him as a 9 though, much more simple for him. Can kick, can tackle and he'll have his halves telling him what to do most of the time anyway...

He would be terrible at 9, worse than halfback. . Brooks needs to be out of the spine. Lock is the position where he doesn’t have to think, he can be told what the next play is, not start it.

hope Brooks stays we need him we can't line up with Madden and Hastings for start of 2022

I agree, and dont be surprised if he is soon to be golfing and fine dining with a certain high profile lawyer.
 
Looked like he was in OK form post-origin and then fell off a cliff. Stuff like this reflects mindset/attitude especially when there is a history of it, with only 1 season I would describe as consistently good.

If he hasn't found motivation at the club yet then changing position isn't going to do it.

I wouldn't be surprised if he is cashing his paycheque and probably not all that bothered by the noise at the moment. That's sad for him and for us. If he stays we need a big investment in a halves coach and I'd be suggesting Madge and Sheens meet regularly with the 7 or 8 players in the spine.

We are really screwed in the experienced player dept.
 
The off season conversation surely has to be that Hastings will be playing 7 and it's up to Brooks to show he can fill another role.
If he's not happy then he's free to leave.

Madge will pick him for every game again... fourth season in a row

He’ll be the 7 to start the year. If it wasn’t already obvious enough, AD’s injury guarantees it.

Shame ….cause he sucks

The people around him sick

Like the players around Mitchy ?

Nah, he does suck

Still a better 7 than Brooks despite him being a Wanker don’t you think ?

Mate look at all the development Mitchey has at his disposal compared to Brooks

Exclusive access to Joey john's
Arthur decent coach
Mind coach
Decent parra team around him


What's Brooks got

Maguire
Some knome like assistant
Crap squad in nrl

Not comparing apples for apples

Brooks’s lack of development is all on him
He’s useless.. punt him

6 Madden
7 Hastings

Brooks can move to coaching, give him Madges job

Souths will need a halfback after Reyno leaves, 2 birds with one stone?

They're stacked with young talented halves.

Not what they need. There more likely to sign Flanagan over Brooks

Let’s hope they’re not that bright.
