Can we bring back Nate Brown and Mitch Moses?

Trade yas a Mbye and a Nofo.

Surely you jest? I’d rather relegation than have those two pretentious knobs playing in our colours again.

You must be one of those, "I don't wanna be coached by Flanno cos he's a cheat" guys too.

Haha, we need some winners man.

Brooksy isn't gonna take us to the promise land of finals.


I've bashed Brooks a fair bit this season, mainly because I wanted him to lead the team but he can't. Conclusion: Brooks is a good half but he is not a leader.

And he folds when he's paired with a good leader half...

Maybe that's why he and Mitch Moses failed and again when he's paired with Adam Douihei.

Does well when he's with another kinda submissive passenger type half like Mbye.

It's quite perplexing...
He's so introverted and lacks the management ability to play in the position we (not me though) placed him.

Honestly think maybe years ago he should've been transitioned to a run it up #9 .. because he is definitely not a half back.

Honestly thing the experiment has failed and we should walk away from it before we waste any more years persisting.

⭐ Feel free to disagree with me, it's a forum. Everything is open for discussion. I won't be upset if you disagree. I love it. Go Tigers.
 
Since it’s Sunday and we have lots of time to dream of what could be AND we have billion $s and no existing contracts to honour ….. one step to success!

Get Bellamy

Then you get ….. Ryan Papenhuyzen (still unsigned), Fenucane and Brendan Smith.

Hmmmm …. Back to my movie now.

He is just not a leader. ie game manager etc My expectation has been adjusted since I realised that. If you want a game manager and leader as a half, it's not Brooks. The question is does the half have to be?

If you look at the current top 4...

Melbourne - munster, leader ✅
Penrith, Cleary & Romey, leaders ✅
Rabbit, Walker & Reyno, leaders ✅
Eels, Slimey, leader ✅

.... so I think, yes.
The player maker needs to be a leader.

Thoughts?

Lots may disagree but I still think that Pearce has couple of seasons of quality leadership and game management to offer at what I believe is a reasonable price.
He would add heaps to Brooks game development and with Hastings and Madden as backups our half’s would be set.

I don't think Romey is a leader he just feeds of Cleary. So certainly at least one of the halves needs to be a leader but it doesn't have to be the halfback.

No I’m not, I’d love Flanno here, he’s a good coach. I just hate Moses cause he’s a fairweathered tossil and Brown’s a cat. Brown was actually alright before he got immersed in the Parramatta whinge/wank culture, now he’s just one of them.

Gotta see both sides of the coin man...

If the choice is, keep losing and losing badly..
Or
Bring in some people with checkered pasts and start winning.

I'm not saying you're wrong.
But.... that current top 4 hasn't always played by the rules.

I think we can all agree, Madge needs some better assistants or guidance.

That would be my exact plan at the moment, would have been my plan weeks ago. I do see the desire to remove him but I don't think that creates the results we want.

Hastings could be our dominant halfback next year, he has arrogance, a loud voice and a great kicking game…move Brooks to 6 with one instruction, run, run Forrest run…brooks doesn’t seem to have the IQ a good half needs

True but there must be better options, I’d have Cleary, Reynolds, Hughes, Walker, DCE or even bloody Ben Hunt here before Moses!

To be fair to Brooks I don’t think even Cleary or Cronk at his best would’ve dug us out of the hole we got in last night. That said, he has been the common denominator in a key position during the club’s long stretch of non-success.
