Daniel Jackson [merged]

[eliminator]

Jackson needs to be dropped. The hard decisions need to be made if we are to progress. Need to make a statement if you don't perform you will be dropped and if after being dropped you don't improve delisted.

[Judge Roughneck]

Sometimes you see on Jacksons face he was going to muck up royal a good 3-4 seconds before he did.

One time especially reasonably early in the game when we had put together 20 odd kicks trying to build out of defense... and then it was Jackos turn...

[Penelope]

oppositions coaches instructions to the players;

just keep pressuring the bloke with the ball. eventually it will go to jackson.............

[Gigantor]

Al you forgot to add.......eventually it will go to Jackson and then straight back to us

[TigerLand]

In my time only 3 players have staggered me at the lengthy amount of games the club has been willing to give them.

1. Andrew Raines
2. Luke McGuane
3. Daniel Jackson

Luke has been really surprising up forward but would any other club trade for him or even pick him up via free agency? Probably not.

Raines was more painful than Jackson, couldn't watch when Raines had the ball apart from his first year.

In fact Jackson is worse, Jackson is a nice smart guy that is willing to try hard to be at the level he is playing, so good on him. But the simple fact is that he is not of standard and shouldn't be on an AFL list. Its too obvious to the opposition that under pressure Jackson will hit 1 in 10 targets. Is a liability on field.

Drop him.

Is our best player so far this season

Demetriou on SEN this morning said Jacko had the potential to be a future AFL CEO.

Future as in starting Monday the 13th May 2013? 

[dwaino]

All makes sense now. Giving him games to bank the browny points for in the future 

[Yeahright]

Yep after a whole 10 years on our list we are still persisting with Jacko  . WYSIWYG after that long so he's not going to improve any further at his age. He's one of Dimma's favourites given he does try hard but Dimma still needs to learn that senior players like Jacko and McGuane who are triers at best won't get you to the top.

Jackson did very well today in his debut. Seemed very comfortable at this level, is a good size and most of all had good skills and a footy brain that many of his more experienced and old teammates lacked. I liked how he switched the play back into the centre which set up a goal for us in the last quarter instead of just predictably bombing it down the line to a contest as we did all day.

Well done today Daniel .
