My team for Round 10 vs Broncos

[hobbo1]

Re Brooks...torn a bit.

Yes, absolutely deserved to go. Nine misses, poor kicks, no game management / well down on last year's form.

VS

Broncs have been beaten all season post covvid return by speedy small men up the guts / pace running at their bigs who tire quickly. Brooks game is more effective against them than any other team.

I think Brooks will be on the bench..

What would be the point of that ?

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

I clearly remember many forum members saying ''Brooks wont get dropped he is to comfortable in his position and in Madges eyes he does no wrong""

God I love watching Madge wield the axe and stay true to his word...AT LEAST NOW EVERYBODY KNOWS THEY MUST PERFORM....I feel a culture change coming on....

It's in our DNA to be overly protective of guys who love the club. Think of Benji and Robbie back in the day. They were untouchable, and if a coach ever threatened them with the axe, the media and fans would turn on them. I agree that's it's time we changed as a club. I like it.

CheeKam out of dummy half to win us the Match again :muscle:

Nec minit its madden and walters as our 5/8 and Half.....

 

[Yossarian]

Brooks will be named as an interchange player (In the top 17)

 

[JC99]

Forwards will have to dominate if we want to win especially with this halves combo

I think they have as many points in them as Brooks/Reynolds. Probably more due to Marshall.

Game management is the issue. If we are close to the line looking to score those two will be able to do it easy. But when we need kicks finding the corners, finding the grass, executing the right plays to help us turn momentum I worry a little with those two. It’ll be on Benji to lead the way

Marshall's kicking game is more dangerous imo. Brooks last tackle kicks are non threatening. Reynolds and Brooks game management sub par (always has been).

Benji has those bombs but to be honest brooks long kicking was pretty decent the last few weeks. Was getting it into corners right in front of the tryline. I don’t see Benji do that as much, his kicks don’t normally find the grass

No but Benji's tend to force fumbles. I could catch Brooks bombs.

Yeah his do but brooks puts them in a better spot in the field. If people catch Benjis bombs it’s normally on the 20 metres line instead of right on front of the try line, that’s the cost of putting those big swirling bombs up

 

[JC99]

Madge is hell bent on changing the culture of our team and building for 2021. Multiple players dropped, spraying players like Joey, giving just about all our off contract players a run this year.

Obviously the goal is still finals for this year but he’s really working on 2021 just as much

I said earlier in another thread that I reckon Brooks has a niggling injury thats why I reckon his performances have been poor..his defensive game has been brilliant except last week,maybe smoke and mirrors by Madge,I dont really know and either do most...

And that may well be the case. The fact he's in the top 17 puts him on notice but allows him to start still. Could be a shot across the bow.

what if brooks uses his hidden Immunity idol? :flushed:

 

[ElleryHanley]

That makes a lot of sense. He could come on when the bigs tire and really add a lot just by running...

Leave the structure to Benji and Walters.

We cant say Madge doesnt make tough decisions and stick to them...Benji proved that..
