Pretty fair assessment. I was certainly willing to give Brenko the chance to improve his defensive game but alas that did not even look like happening. Certainly freakish in attack ( pretty good tackle busts and try assists) but when you let in tries with poor defence that pretty much negates some of that stat.Yes that's the thing though isn't it. Pay has seen him up close and personal and I suspect he likes a lot of what Brenko does but he really is a dumb footy player and his decision making is very poor. Bottom line is you can't put brains in statues and that is why Pay was happy for him to go.
Looking at last year he averaged 10 tackles a game missing 20% or two tackles in defence; his defensive tackle efficiency was 83.1% according to NRL website.
