Brandon Wakeham - Any good?

[Dingo]

If he was any good we'd keep him.

 

[Natboy]

Apparently Wakeham is banging one of the hottest BBQ Chicken’s on the planet!!

Kurt Morrin won’t want to read that hahaha

 

[Dogsville]

signing with Sea eagles

thanks Dave

 

[Moedogg]

He's nothing special. No running game and no kicking game, so don't expect him to make a break or kick your team to victory.

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Wakeham imo is an improvement on the flange he has a better running, passing and kicking game. The flange is better defensively. Flanagan will also end up in super league as can’t see him being swamped with offers come 1 November.

 

[Hacky McAxe]

Could probably put together a highlight reel of his missed tackles. May be a bit long though.

 

[Philistine]

Wakeham is another young player who has been stuffed up by the Covid restrictions, and last year by Barrett's desperation to find a winning formula from a poor and inexperienced roster. This year he has been doing what he should have done in 2020 and 2021 - learning his trade in a successful team in a lower grade competition! He looks to be a better 7 than Flanagan, which, admittedly, is not saying much, and there is still time for him to show us something in first grade.

 

[D0GMATIC]

There are strong rumours that we (Warrington) have signed Brandon to play for us in Super League next year.

Any player's agent can put a decent highlights reel together for You Tube, but is he actually any good? We are crying out for an organising scrum half - is he the answer?

God no, he is a worse half than Averillo and that isn't easy

 

[MOVE.80]

Yepp he's good. Good as gone

 

[albatross]

He'll stay on Fiji time wherever he goes man. Might turn up now and then for small periods during games, but will frustrate the hell out of fans. Needs someone like Mal Reilly to flog him but he'd probably bale out if Mal showed up.

 

[Dogmonster]

He can be Kikaus mini me.
Looks like a smaller version.

 

[turveys asthma puffer]

The bloke struggles to kick the ball further than 30metres and frequently has brain explosions where he kicks early in the tackle count. Might be ok over there as a 6 if you have an organising 7 that can kick long. Pretty quick over 30metres though.

 

[2144superman]

Some rated him early as a future immortal but sadly no, he’s pretty average sorry

So you’re saying there’s still a chance llol

 

[chisdog]

Imo he never really had a good or long enough chance as actual halfback in first grade here, or with a decent coach. Chances are he offers more than the one we have playing now.

The biggest run in 1st grade he had was 5 games. That was until COVIDGate reared it's ugly head. That one decision probably ended any chance that he may have had of making a go of it.

Well he'll be no good for us (so we'll probably sign him!) as we don't have an organising 7 (we have George Williams, ex Raiders at 6) and we don't have anyone who can kick for shit....so basically, we're screwed again next year as we have the worst coach in Super League too.

Deep joy

Wakeham has signed with the Wests TIgers.

Good luck to him

 

[Mitch Connor]

Always thought he’d end up there. Good back up for them.

 

[Bulldog1966]

OK depth with Hastings gone.

 

[D0GMATIC]

I didn't rate him tbh,but he had a good world cup.Can see him getting some game time there, when Douehi breaks down again or the get fed up with Brooks again
