Which was better ?

[hodgo]

@Kazoo-Kid He has been awesome man. Im a critic have been for quite a while. In saying that he has strung a few games together and starting to be consistent. My knock on him is not his talent because that is evident my knock on him has been big moments late in games and consistency.

To be honest i feel like he has grown with good ball from dummy half as others have said. I think benji has made a real difference. I still love robbie for everything he has done for the club and he deserves his accolades but we have looked really sharp the last couple of weeks.

But again consistency is the key.

I love how a couple wins bring the fans together.

forum is booming :joy:

I wouldn't have thought there would be much to argue about this week. Momo's form has even shut me up.?

 

[bigsiro]

IMO Brooks criticism has been justified throughout his career. The jury is still out as to whether he can ever be a first rate 7. He just has always had too many inadequacies and inconsistencies.
Even up to just a month ago his form was so poor that the bashers were outnumbering the fans.

But this last few weeks he has shown sparks and maturity that has shut up even the most ardent of critics (e.g Me!). Hell I’ve even got behind the guy.

I am still mighty skeptical and don’t rate his game enough to have any confidence in him week to week.
But! This week I do!

Come on Brooksy!!!!
Keep doing what we have wanted you to do. Play at this level again and again and make us doubters keep eating that delicious humble pie.

 

[bigsiro]

And by the way- even the great Joey Johns’s greatest games are still compared to his debut.

 

[newtiger]

@bigsiro I'd love to see Luke play behind a pack of forwards that dominated the opposition every week.
I think that he would be in the NSW team.

 

[fair dinkum]

Today, 2nd good game ive ever seen him play. About time. See if he can back it up next week or go missing as usual.

Solid effort to win the Dally M halfback of the year when you've only ever played 2 good games in your career and none of those games were in that year.

Just goes to show how flawed those awards are. Cant even lead his team into a finals series and gets an award that his fan boys will feed off to justify his entire failed career? :man-facepalming:

Christ, how miserable are you.

Id imagine it would be pretty miserable to never see the truth, hows that working out for you?

Mate, its great. We're playing on Sunday in front of a full house at home to get into the 8. We're all pumped. Then there's you, having a sulk because Brooks is getting credit for playing well.

nah im pointing out Brooks has been rubbish for 5 years and its about time he pulled his finger out.

Clearly you haven't been watching us play lately.

Isnt that the exact point of what i said? About time he pulled his finger out = "lately"

Okay, so you acknowledge he's pulled his finger out lately. So, why are you moaning?

If you call "moaning" pointing out that Brooks usually plays like garbage and The Tigers havent had a decent half back since Lui, then sure, call it moaning. Id prefer to call it "reality". Each to the their own.

And another thing, you are clearly bitter about it. You don't want the guy playing well. You want him to fail.


Citation needed?

On the contrary, im actually wanting a half back that can lead the Tigers into the finals, thus far it hasnt been Brooks. Why are you pleased for the failing of the past to justify a decent game here and there?

Yes, wanting A halfback. You don't want it to be Brooks. Even if he is the one to lead us.

I couldnt careless who it is, as long as they steer a team into the finals, as of yet, Brooks has proven himself incapable.

So if we win on Sunday, then what? Are you going to be a man and give him credit for being that halfback, or will you take the easy way out and give it to him for taking so long to do it?

He played amazing.....

Didn't he what! Such a great effort keeping us in the game with great defence whilst playing behind a struggling young front row and only one prop on the bench.

Brooks had a great game. Did nothing wrong. He wasnt the one dropping balls and missing tackles.

Every time he had the ball he looked dangerous.

No... Not really.
Forwards were dominated and we lost the ruck pretty early... everything else follows
