Sorry but Brooks has caused some of our issues tonight
That short bomb for Tedesco was a low percentage kick and the kick just before half time had little thought behind it

Yeh it was Brooks fault that Austin, Ava and Sus couldnt put one player down between them.
Close to the worst post I have seen on this forum. Brooks has been close the best player on the field in a very badly beaten side.

I think thats the sort of thing Galea is getting at. A young half will always make wrong choices, but when the coach has him doing everything even more mistakes will come.
Galea is right, Brooks needs help

Some of Sues defence around the ruck tonight has been a huge let down

Yes and Souths aren't in that field position if he choses a better option
Brooks first fifteen minutes was really good And his last 65 were the worst of this season
I'm not knocking the bloke , I have been saying all season he will have good nights and bad nights
Tonight wasn't good
We aimed ONE kick at Tuqiri and we scored :brick:
That's not smart football

Yes two things:
Brooks was good; dont blame him - please get rid of Anasta and
Sue - I cant believe his poor defence. I thought he was about to really come good after an interrupted season but that was very ordinary.

Rubbish. If Brooks poor, than Reynolds shouldnt be in first grade. Your standards are way too high squid.

He is the only attacking option in the back line. Without another point of attack to take pressure if him he will struggle.
Watch the good teams fella. It will help you to see it

He tried his butt off and effort wise he was great , but he has to realize what worked in NYC and Schoolboys won't always work at NRL level

When it comes to the halves pairing, you must have high standards. If Brooks isn't ready and needs a baby sitter as bad as Anasta, then the team is better off with someone who is ready and doesn't need a baby sitter on their inside.
Who's fault is it that our halves are pretty much the most ineffective in the comp right now?

Brooks has been good all season taking everything into account
He had one of those bad nights you have to expect from 19 year olds that are under pressure

Im not saying just tonight. He has been great in patches, but mostly ineffective and sometimes too individual.
There is nothing wrong with wanting or even needing him to be better, because he does need to be. He is not the finished product, that's for sure.
We have a half that is not a finished product and a 5/8 that shouldn't be a 5/8\. Together, they are ineffective. That has a lot to do with Brooks not delivering in attacking points, but if we have to have Anasta in order to have Brooks, then I believe we would be better off with a different pairing all together.
