Wests Tigers Team v St George Rd 1

[Tigerboy]

Brooks is a big out...we loose our main general play kicking option....it will be extra important for our forwards to get on top of their pack....Benji and Reynolds both have a rubbish long kicking game we could be in trouble here

Crap


How so? Brooks is our main long kicking option? Benji and grub aren’t great in that department after all the are 6s not 7s

Since when does Brooks kick long ?
Brooks couldn’t find the grass in an empty paddock !

Don’t have to be a halfback to have a decent boot ?

Luke Brooks 2019 kick metres 7331 ave 305 mpg
Benji Marshall 2019 kick metres 3411 ave 171 mpg

Come on, Benj has The better boot

You can admit that and still be Brooks brigade

Who said anything about better the post say when does Brooks ever kick long..answer quite often..

How often does it go dead? Caught on the full? Ineffective for our next defensive set, etc...

Think Rey Rey at this late stage should have minimal nerves and will complement Benji’s creativity + our extra strike out wide!

Might be our final for this year albeit in RD. 1

No need to worry about who kicks ‘long’

Forgot it geo some just can’t debate a topic fairly...their opinion or your wrong...not sure where some lost the ability to debate reasonably with actual knowledge?‍♀️

 

[Strider]

Reynolds will be so good, fans won't know who to drop after it.

He’ll get back to you soon with more useless stats ..
Kicks that were caught on the full and all that ?

Facts? I thought the inter web was about opinions

Nah mate , I don’t ...before my time .

 

[BalmainJnr]

Brooks out with a calf.

 

[supercoach]

I would have thrown Maden in at the deep end. Really doesn’t matter the season will come to a grinding halt within two weeks and nothing will resume for a minimum of three months

I don't think we can, he's not in the 21 players. Next week maybe, if there is a game next week.

At the speed at which this coronavirus crisis is developing, I think you may be right!

Losing brooks is big im my opinion expected big things for him

Given the argument, I think it's a pretty relevant stat. The question being "since when is Brooks the long kicker." Those stats show he's the man in that regard whether or not you like him. I don't know where the stat came from or if it's fair dinkum, but at face value, it supports his view.

 

[Tiger_Steve]

Why why why can’t we just start a bloody season without drama? Was it last year Reynolds went down in the warmups. Now this. Fair dinking, just an even chance is all I’m asking?

Just about everyone is missing a few players. We’ve been pretty lucky with injuries this off season up until now, at least we have depth to cover him unlike other clubs

Don't even need the stats as watching any few matches is enough to have no doubt.

 

[TrueTiger]

Its unlucky that Brooks is out,however,I honestly think Benji and JRey will carve them up,2 old NRL halves should be great to watch....as far as kicking goes,it was said on here by a few how ordinary Brooks kicking was against the Warriors trial and yet the game analysts said how well JRey kicked and played..

Too many people are quick to write Reynolds off because of his price tag and lack of play due to injuries,I personally hope he kills it this week and in the future when given the chance..

We all forget that Madge is a very good coach and wouldn't put Josh in unless he has been doing really well....I will wait until tomorrow and support the WHOLE team to a victory...

 

[happy_tiger]

Brooks will be a massive loss to our side ..simple as that , where will the points come from ....I'd say Saints probably start firm favourites now

Firmed to 1.75 in from 1.80 Wests out to 2.15 from 2.00 on the news..I still think we'll win cause we are Wests Tigers..all the Brooks non-raters should get on ..easy money..

 

[TheDaBoss]

Hopefully it isn't a long injury.. and is only round 1
