We had an organized attack
One side of our defence was sured up
Brooks learnt far more than he was going to learn from Moltzen ,Muddy Waters and all our other experienced halves in NSW Cup
The guy played almost 300 NRL games , you don't think he could pass some useful info onto Brooks in becoming a above average half
The signing of Anasta was to help Brooks and Moses on field , some people just don't get that

the point moreover is - did it work? did it serve the purpose? do we benefit now?

And that was my exact point in my earlier comment Thanks for getting this back on track
We can only hope that Brooks and Moses improve
I personally think many of the younger forwards have improved significantly with Blair's help

Until they reach that 50-75 NRL games they will still have their good and bad days
Biggest issue still is what hard running back rowers or centres do they have to put into holes to make them look good do we have ??

I could be wrong but the signing of Anasta was to be a foil for Marshall
The move is likely to see Marshall shift from five-eighth to halfback next season, with Willett revealing the Tigers wanted Anasta to partner the New Zealand captain at the scrum base.

"Braith will be playing in the halves with Benji," Willett said.

No
We were talking about experience and the value experienced players are to rookies
Why bring up the FG against the Raiders then….
And wasn't it Anasta who played Golf with Teddy and said take the MONEY Jerry McGuire style

Yes and we all thought that Benji and Prince would be lovers forever and then Lui and Benji would be together forever
Things happen and change very quickly in the NRL
Anasta was their to try and be calming influence when Marshall and Farah had brain snaps ie 2011 semi v Warriors
He was filling the gap until Brooks was ready
When Marshall left , he was always going to mentor Brooks and Moses and would of been involved in their development even if Marshall was here
Brooks would of got some bad habits from Marshall mentoring alone
As I said initially , the proof will be in the pudding in the future

So why did he go back to the Roosters?
So if Brooks Flops or Kills it it will be because of Anasta…..I think you giving him far too much credit in the pudding recipe...

I'm guessing because he was getting full pay at the Roosters and something less than that at the WT's
Might explain some of the reason perhaps
Why do you think he left and why would the Roosters take him back so quickly if he wasn't any good ??
