Sorry to say it but jmk is solid but he offers nothing in attack there is no threat from dummy half . The game starts at dummy half u need to be able to read the game and pick the right way to play . There is also a Hasler hangover with tolman mainly the one thinking he is our halfback and or taking a hit up on the 4th tackle . We need a new hooker PLEASE!!!

I have said it time and time again
We have a bigger issue in tolman
Everytime he touches the ball he kills any momentum we have

There are many of his fans here - he is a workhorse , dirty work , roll his sleeves up blah blah blah
.if you play 80 minutes and touch the ball 2wice in every set you will make 200 metres no qyestion

200 metres of no use
He need to go
There is a reason this workhorse has never broken into a rep team

Pay has no clue. If JMK is one of the fastest, why doesn't Pay tell him to run more and also tell Meaney to follow breaks for possible offloads. Simple stuff but I doubt if it has entered Pay's mind.

Priority number 1 must be to find a hooker.

JMK takes the wrong option way too often.

Ive been a big jmk supporter but I agree we need someone better at 9 he does generally pass the wrong way which is a concern

It’s not Tolman’s fault. It’s the hooker that decides to pass to him on the 4th. The hooker if clever can pass behind Tolman or go the other war or go himself.

jmk either passes above their head or at their knees, the team will go no where without a good hooker

JMK is a fucking horrible 9. He's half the issue of our attacking woes

This also falls on the players calling the shots. Foran or Cogger, heck even some fullbacks call the plays from behind with better vision.

Seems nobody talks on the field.

Also was/am a big supporter of JMK, he is great defensively, he does have pace.. but the Passes don’t find the mark, When he does dash out of dummy half there are glimpses, but it’s just not happening for him unfortunately..!!!

I said that he was shit last week and everyone said the opposite...lol.
The bloke hardly ever runs and the opposite defence knows that, so they are always waiting to pounce on the first receiver. He has no kicking game like Lichaa and 99% of the times takes the wrong option at dummy half like Lichaa. The bloke wasn't given a contract in a shit Tigers side when we signed him and Pay thought he was the next Cam Smith...just lol.

We had the opportunity to get Seggy or even Rein but Pay was sweet with Lichaa and makeshift JMK and he filled the other 28 spots in record time to give us zero chance of mid season signing

Only because I like disruption...How about Lewis at Hooker.. He has excellent defense, a great pass and some pace. Also provides an extra kicking option..

It’s not just that, someone makes a huge run or a semi line break and he takes the next run and it’s kills everything. Instead someone like Ogden, Smith should be bolting on to it. Same goes for that useless turtle Hoppa
