Leo knows how to hold the ball off opponents and then with a swift move get around them. He lost it a few times trying to take people on but if we want someone who always plays the safe backward option, we can just bring Caravella back.
    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.

    I reckon he's worse than Ribeiro, and we know he's worse than Flores, who is probably one of the most talented guys to have played for the Jets. Most talented for me is the aforementioned Vigs.
    Ribeiro hardly played a game and before he came to the Jets he'd hardly done anywhere near what Leonardo had.

    Flores again played **** all for us and is now playing 2nd tier US football.

    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.

    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.

    i was sitting right in front of him for the first half and he was atrocious. barbarouses danced past him a few times, one time he stood and watched while barbarouses ran onto a loose ball, skipped past him and then got a a shot saved sharply by bk. then there was the time he lost barbs when they played a ball over the top; luckily boogard recovered to save the day.

    got caught on the ball a few times trying to dribble out from defence. his passing was bad too, i think he kicked the ball straight out about 3 times.

    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.

    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?

    Yeah I gotta say that I thought Jackson did pretty well (this is only going off the drunken haze of what I remember - perhaps re-watching the game in the sober light of day may tell a different story)..
    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..

    BK is still the new BK.

    Was shit on Friday night, didn't know a thing about half of his saves. Just lucky that Victory were kicking straight at him.

    still went past him very easily, don't know how the cover defence cleaning up Jackson's mess makes Jackson himself pass the grade

    we were just lucky not to be punished

    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.
    Thankfully the club has for once done something for the fans and signed Jackson as the clubs whipping boy.
