Hmm he had a great game but we are missing something here. we got smashed at clearances and Jack had just one for the entire game and he only won four contested possesions. Just asking are the disposals over shadowing things here.
Depends on which stat's you focus on
You again quote stat's but no mention of the fact had 10 tackles for the match
10 out of 53
Maybe that's his role as opposed to the clearances
Cmon WP Im not having a go at him in fact i said he had a very good game. The simple fact that clearances and players capable of first winning the ball and then standing up in a tackle and dishing off is killing us. It has been an achilles heel for years. Jacks game did nothing to help in this,
This is not a knock but i think if he plays for us because of his attributes he should play more inside and yes for an inside player tackling is a big part of the role. But what about the other parts of the role.
The other thing with big tackling stats is the need to ask is he second to the ball too often. Not saying thts the case but its something worth thinking about.
