Dan Jackson won the JD and people were still valid to punt him. He was the ultimate whipping boy.

Sadly he barely played after his JD, and was badly hampered when he did. As a long time fan of Action, his retirement hit hard.
 
Really found his position in the team now and contributing really well. Just using the ball so much better in the last 2 weeks. Another 30 possies at 93%, just 2 ineffective.
 
Last week's game was better. Thought he looked backwards a lot more this week but definitely seems to be getting hosojo back.
 
Two in a row. If he gets a hattrick does he get to keep his jersey?
 
Amazing how good his disposal by hand and foot is when hes not panicking , thinks clearly when hes not shitting himself when hes under the pump.
 
Another good game by Brandon, a few on here not keeping up with the modern game, guys that can run like Ellis, Houli and Mc Intosh will keep getting games and racking up big possessions.

If you can't run like Zeibel or Cunnington then you are an anchor in the second half against a team full of runers like the Tigers. Those with long memories will remember Zeibels draft camp results, awful 20 meter sprint and worse time trial, he can't run.

Check the 3km time trial at the start of the season and you will see a list of the blokes getting the Tigers over the line in the second half of these tight matches.

two great overlapping runs into the forward fifty by Brandon. Another very good game.

Agree. His best 2 games for ages.
