I honestly thought brooks was one of our best players. He had more spark than Hastings

Needs to run and do nothing else
Today 81 meters , 16 tackles & 8 missed tackles
1 try assist to Ben Turbo
Punt him
He tackled his guts out and had plenty thrown at him. He had more going for him than a lot of the team today. Sure we can punt him but that won’t improve our side

He’s also dumb .. he doesn’t even know how to create space for our outside backs ..
Shit player
No brains
Way overpaid
His effort isn’t the issue it’s all of the above ^^^^
Give madden 50 games and he’ll give you more than Brooks at less than half the money

Disagree. He was one of our better players today. Some nice passes, grubbers and tackled well too.
Look I’m no Luke Brooks fan boy or anything. I agree he is not the smartest player. We can both see that so why hasn’t the club used him better and tried to sign a controlling intelligent half to support him. As a half he is always going to command good money. He is not a shot player we have just let him down with an inferior forward pack and crappy halves partners

If our outside backs were threatening they’d create their own space by keeping the defence second guessing.

Lol he missed 8 tackles out of 16
His effort on Ben Turbo was disgusting 🤮
Hardly worth the price tag don’t you think ?!

Would be nice just to get a run of games where the fifty/fifties are even rather than more often than not feeling we never get the rub of the green from the reffing.

Brooks has been demoted to a running 5/8 …
13 runs for 81 meters lol
For any centre to be threatening they need space . Brooks can’t provide that .
Who do you think should replace him long term?

Twal off the bench was the only forward over 100m…

Garner gets my 3
I really don’t think he is the answer. Was ok for the Magpies today but nothing special. We need to aim higher if we are going to get rid of our starting half

Twal has been fine ..it’s our 1-6 that sucks
We basically have to play at 98% to even win by 1 point .. anything less we’re screwed as we don’t have decent players 1-6

Discipline certainly needs work, disappointing as Tamou was responsible for a few. Hard to argue many against us but then frustrating when you see things like Turbo holding To’a back go unpunished.
Less penalties (dumb obvious ones) would help the cause.
