Where is Jacko at?

He's collected a few scalps in Black and Bruce in his tag/run with role to begin with but in the past two weeks he's struggled to stick with the more nimble and speedy Montagna and Boomer Harvey (who was so far a class above everyone else last night it wasn't funny).

jacko is ok, the past 2 weeks are more coaching errors than jacko errors

jacko must be kept in the team purely for his aggression, he along with king are the only 2 players we have that show fight and mongrel, get tivendale out and bring connors in (if he is suspended) to add another tough nut into the team

kane johnson is the one we should be asking where he is at. no passion, no desire, no fight, no inspiration, shocking disposal, shocking awareness.  sugar is a weak dog

Think he has been ok,
What i didnt like yesterday was the ease the Boomer Harvey pushed him off in a marking contest and then kicked a goal ?
He should be a lot stronger than Harvey and should be able to hold his ground.
I still have memories of him playing on Matera at the G in 2005 against West Coast and Matera kicking the winning goal as Jacko was on the wrong side of the stoppage allowing Matera the easiet of goals ever seen.
That aside, I reckon he would get a tick for 2007.

I believe that Harvey is pound for pound the strongest player at Arden Street.

Was disappointed last night with his game - he needs to be able to do more than run - footy samrts, like Bull mentioned are the key here (or lack of them) :-\

WP,

Going to disagree (a first) with you.  DJ ran real hard to provide options on the fat/open side of the ground a number of times.  Given that the 'roos were flooding the RFC players needed to look to the open/fat side for an option.  Had they done so DJ would have been the option on more than one occassion.  He did the work and provided the option, we just had too many short sighted licks into a crowded side of the ground.

thats how i saw his game, and when they did use him as an option, he had a hand in many scoring shots and  opportunities, he was the main reason we came back in it in the 2nd quarter

Even scarier stuff.  Disagreeing with WP and now agreeing with X. :lol :lol

As I have a debate going on Y&B as to his effectiveness I actually specifically counted where DJ had a hand/key role in a goal and I counted 4 and possibly 5.  It could have been more if teammates had looked for him when he made himself available and was free.  Whilst Harvey got lots of kicks on him, DJ could really have Harvey the other way had he been utilised as he really worked off him hard.  It probably cost him a bit as Harvey got some easy possessions from rebounds from turnovers.

No dramas HKTiger - happy to have you disagree with me. And I take your point regarding DJ providing options.

What concerns me with his "footy smarts" and it showed again on Sunday was that when he is in the clinches (ie under pressure) he seems to either panic (like what Tommy Roach used to do) and as a result makes a bad skill error or at the opposite end he takes too long the make a decision, which slows down our movement forward (thought he wasn't alone there on Sunday either :-\). A very fine line I admit but that what concerned/s me

I'm sorry but I can't help myself.

What is a short sighted "lick"?

I have a mental image of a...

No I probably shouldn't say what the image I have in mind is.

Anyway...

DJ will be a long term player for us.

'65,

As my user name suggests I am an Asia resident.  And I've had short sighted and long sighted licks.

Now if we had a decent keyboards then "k"s and 'l"s wouldn't be so close together.

My penchant for correct Grammar was one of the contributing factors that got me banned from another (unmentionable) forum by an equally unmentionable dictator moderator.

My apologies, in this case I was only trying to be funny.

Appreciate that.  So was I.  I need to use more smiley's.

And then i might need to describe my preferred night life but this is a family forum so I will need another avenue.....    ;) ;) ;)

Daniel Jackson is a waste of space, the club should cut their losses with this guy and get rid of him.

He has no football brain and was badly beaten by McGlynn today. He was tagging a half forward flanker and he doesnt stand goal side of his player at a stoppage.

This is rule 101 in the handbook.

He has athletic talents, but IMO no football brain.

Today was a clear indication that he will NEVER make it.

Time and time again he was 20m off his player, not good enough for a tagger.
