For a while there I thought I was alone in thinking he had a good game. Ran out of legs at the end, but I thought he was solid up until then.Quote:

Agree about Vigs though. Can't believe I forgot about him. He was magnificient
He seems to have good skill just needs to get on the ball more in the right areas
Leonardo is clearly better than Ribeiro who was hardly sighted and yes Vigs was quality, was a shame he was just getting into a groove when he done his ACL on the infamous Hunter stadium turf.Quote:

From what I have seen of Leonardo, I think that once his fitness improves he will be huge for us. Did you notice how long it took MV to start knocking him down every time he got the ball? Ok, I know there were a few "milking" attempts, but it seems that he was a target. Give him a chance; we've been screaming out for a 10 and maybe, just maybe, we've found one.

didn't see much of him second half, and haven't watched the replay, so i'll concede that he may have improved in the second half.
also leonardo is great.
best game ive seen us play for a long time
scramble defence was excellent, great to see rather than the usual ball watching of previous years
Khalfallah, berisha, Barbarouses & finkler all kept very quiet
who got the fox sports 321?

I mean, Jackson looked nervous at times, but overall I think he did really well keeping Barbarouses out of it, took the ball off him a few times when he tried to cut in.. Barbarouses looked pretty poor..
Sounding more and more like Jackson is the foz's new BK.
BK is still the new BK.Quote:

Glad to give you positive rep for thisQuote:

to me it seemed like every time it went down that flank they were in behind us, with Jackson providing all the defensive pressure and tackling ability of a witches hat
I was really concerned when we lost Sam Gallaway that we wouldn't have anyone to blame for shit regardless if it was their fault or not.Quote:

I never said Jackson passes the grade, just that victorys attackers were kept quietQuote:

still much prefer playing Jackson there as I do playing david carney there.
Obviously beer affects you guys a lot on here. Jackson was great shutting down a lot of MV play. I was watching from halfway and most blokes around me were impressed by him as far as a debut goes.He was very composed for his age and his positioning was pretty good too. Shut down there plays several times. Yes barbarouses went passed him but not with the ball!!
I think hes got real potential. Yes better option than carney at back as Carney needs to be further forward obviously!
yep I understand, my point is that he didn't keep KB quiet - rather we were lucky that we weren't punished by the mismatch on that flankQuote:

i think he did alright ay
Jackson was gash, seemed uninterested and out of his depth in that possie. Turning circle of a semi trailer. Cowburn came on and showed him out to play at LB.
Prepared to give Jackson another go, may have been affected by his injury.
****ing hell some of you hammering on about Jackson.
Yes he got caught out a few times.
For the most part he done a pretty solid job.
The way he let Barbarousis run at him and then picked his pocket was ****ing class.
Yes the bloke has some things to work on but what 4 career game player doesn't.
Thing is there are some positives there and I hope he is playing this week again so I can see more of him before writing him off like some of you miserable people are already doing based on 60 mins
who are you and what have you done with the original MFKS?Quote:

i wouldn't have been so harsh had there not been posts about how he had barbarouses in his pocket all night.
Same bloke.Quote:
