It’s because the media create the narrative and they run with it. To them, all they see is a player that works his ass off and players like lining up by their side. Even if his form has fallen off a cliff that’s all they see. All he needs to do is 1 try saving tackle and he will get a point

But see that's the thing .. for a guy that supposedly "works his ass off' his stats don't reflect it....

Jackson has never been a stats player even when he won dally m second row of the year in 2016 and 2018 his stats weren’t that good. Some players are good without having good stats he is one one of them. Although, I know he wasn’t good this, he has to be moved to lock he could be awesome there with his quick play the balls. And the two games he got his 5 points for, he did play well. Go back and check the dally m points the kennel rewarded in rd 1 and the recent match against rabbits, he was on a lot of peoples votes.

I don’t understand the hate Jackson gets seriously can’t wait til he plays 300 games for the club and wins a premiership in his last season !!!!
Same man, he has been great for most of his career then has a bad season this year (mind you, barely anybody played well) and was also played out of position. I think next year he will kill it again

still amazes the Hopoate hate on this forum. Plays half the season still tops the club's Dally M votes.
Agreed. He's our best fullback option. Might not have the pace of others but he is super safe under the high ball and his handling/passing it top rate. He's not our long term FB option, he's better at centre but he's still only 28 so he's still got plenty to offer.
