trying to get the 'Gallen' look...He looks like a cloud.

Like in origin? Hmmm yeah, not likely. At the moment he is just being beaten by quicker players on the edges. He will have more people around him defending tighter.Jackson will be a speed hump in the 13
Didn't Napa run right over him through middle though? Napa can barelt bumo off defenders these days yet he went straight over Jackson like he wasn't there. Something is off with Jackson atm.Like in origin? Hmmm yeah, not likely. At the moment he is just being beaten by quicker players on the edges. He will have more people around him defending tighter.
the captains curse... trying to hard, he was a leader by actions for years... If he loses it then he's just your average run of the mill backrower...Didn't Napa run right over him through middle though?

I love Jacko, but both his performances this year are sub par. U say he missed 2 tackles tonight, 1 was on that cream puff Napa which lead to a try.Jacko will come back. As bad as everyone says he played, he did top the tackle count with 32 and missed 2 tackles. He also scored the try. I also think Foran is not running the ball enough and defenders are loading up on his runners, every time Jacko hits an edge there are 2 or 3 defenders waiting. He has yet to be put into half a hole.
I think he has been trying too hard in tackles and his timing has been a little off because of it. He tried to hit Napa too hard and copped a knee or hip to the nose again, just like last week.
And everyone saying RFM is a better player ate their words tonight. He looked soft tonight. With JJ does not matter how hard the hits are he rips in 110%.

No doubt he is struggling, but you dont drop your captain after two hardly unexpected losses. So you have to consider if he might be better off playing tighter at lock. I would. Given we are struggling through our forwards i would try this:Didn't Napa run right over him through middle though?

Yh i'm not saying drop him, but there's definitely something off with him. I have always wanted him to move to lock and now seems like the best time even with his defensive errors.No doubt he is struggling, but you dont drop your captain after two hardly unexpected losses.

8. Woods
10. Klem
11. Fine
12. RFM
13. Jacko
14. JMK
15. Fualalo
16. To'omaga/ogden
17. Tualau/tolman
I know aye. Every run he was fighting in the tackle trying to push off defenders. He also had to take a lot of tough runs tonight.RFM was soft? Bahahahaha what a dumb comment
I know he is one of your kiwi bros and you are obviously biased, for a guy that weighs 110kg he does not hit the line hard enough especially when taking a hitup in the middle. The same can be said about his defence, hardly ever see him rip in with a shoulder and is more of a grabber.RFM was soft? Bahahahaha what a dumb comment
