I thought he was pretty damn good, but I've always liked him. I can't be the only one who rated his game though as he was named in the best.

There was a move towards the end of the game where he weaved out of congested traffic which was brilliant. He was on Palmer all day and kept him pretty quiet by his usual standards and hurt him the other way. Palmer usually averages over 23 disposals and I think he had 16 today.

jacko will become better than foley, watch this space. you may laugh, but jacko has more strings to his bow than foley and only needs confidence and belief. batter mark, kick, much stronger and more athletic than foley. foley cannot shake a tag and his kicking is very over rated. next year will be a break out yr for jacko. mark it down

Still too many brain fades, constantly tries to beat too many rather than using the first option. If he can cut that out, he's got a chance of progressing.

with more experience and more confidence he will stop those brain fades, his last quarter today was fantastic, and he never gives up, unlike say foley, who as soon as he is tagged , throws in the towel. dont worry next year we will be praising jacko as the most improved just like we have been for moore this yr

His awareness at times is non existent. At times he looks slow and lethargic. He is very frustrating to watch. I don't think there has been a game this season when he has not been penalised for holding the ball after he has failed to use awareness and give off to the first option.

In Foley's defence, he is paying the price for us having a midfield that doesn't need any more than 1 serious tag applied.  Watch how he seems to 'improve' next season as Cotchin steps up and Deledio starts to have more of a midfield impact.

i rate him but not as highly as most. i know he is carrying a niggle or two but thats not the reason why he cant break a tag, been his problem since day dot. he does not work hard enough when tagged, does not gut run to shake a tag as say a ben cousins ablett and judd do. deledio is starting to get better at it but imo foley gets beaten as soon as he knows he has a heavy tag.  he has pace to burn but wont use it to beat his tag. i belive its a mind thing, and tbh, foleys kicking skills are not elite. foley still has alot of improvements in him , i just hope he has what it takes to get over the tag

it pains to me admit it but i agree with mooseXshannonCotchDanielleBloodiedTiger.

Foley cracks it with a tagger and goes off his game! :help

Jacko can be a very good player.

Pretty much agree 100% with that.

Interesting that you said "not all" and didn't say "not any".

Hmmm

I wonder how many of them you are then?
