This.

I would add korki and Moore to that list.

Jd is done what a load of crap. He worked his backside off yesterday esp in defense, he kept our middle very tight and was excellent from marker. He also carried very strong and was all of the place trying to get things going. Every week you people come on here and slate jd and early season it was justified but no way was it yesterday. Look at the opta stats on monday and i'll bet he is very close to the best back rower on the field bar maybe manu. If henderson or morrison worked like JD did last night you would be saying how great they were, double standards and clearly picking on a bloke who will fight tooth and nail for this club. Like i say back up your statement and bar a couple of forward passes he was very good his best game this season..

how long before we cash in and sign yet another has being

1 good win will silence all the critics -
[iI just despair as to where and when that win will come.[/i

How can Leo Latu and JD go from being heroes and the best we have when we beat Leeds to dross and not worth it when we lose.
Some very short sighted people with short memories on here. (I wonder how tall they are?)

Lack of momentum and confidence is effecting the whole team, it's unfair to single anybody out. Half backs aren't taking the line on, props aren't offloading, players aren't backing up. Players are thinking negatively and not making things happen. Problem is we are losing against teams who are in possibly bigger slump than us now.

As someone who commented about Latu, I have never thought he is great, yes he does the odd good run but as I said before he is a penalty machine with appalling distribution for a hooker

NO!

It seems that you don't agree though, so tell me why!

Please remember you can't single people out unless its JD or JK, forum rules on here

If you think is form is up to the last few seasons that's up to you,i agree he puts in the tackling but his game is a lot more than tackling,his line breaks,running the angles ,spotting a gap that's what made JD such a great player for Trinity.If you think it's a about picking on him your way off the mark.

I disagree with you, watch the replay. Several (needless) penalties & terrible forward passes at key times for me - he looks very jaded and slow too at the moment. Think the lad needs a rest, and badly - hopefully he can come back better than he is now. I think this trying to play him back into form is being counter productive.

Jds mind and heart are always strong IMO. But his body is falling short which is not his fault because he is always 100% effort. Bibb should never play SL, NL1 or NL2 level. If i was Kear i would manufacture any situation where Bibb was out of the SL squad. Play a winger at prop. Anything!

i agree with you, but its not the role JK has given him, he has fixed him on one side and paying him like a battering ram. The idea of moving him to loose was to give a free rain to rome around the field and target gaps, but jk has decided to use him as a hit up man and it takes away what he does well and limits his oportunities. In terms of what he is asked to do he did it very well on sat made good metres and was excellent in defense. He made more tackles than any other player last year and probably will again this year that limits your line break ability. JD is doing his job very well since he has come back from being dropd and i believe JK is using him wrong he should be playing at loose forward and given free rain to pop up where he spots weaknesses then we will see his best. JK has turned our most dangerous attacking runner into a work horse like i say look at his stats compared to other back row forwards like gilmour fa'alogo his work rate is very high, its also because our outside backs at times esp gleeson wont carrie the ball in our end making our forwards have to work harder. JK need to allow jd more freedom and we will see his bes again.

several needles penalties ha gave one away for lying on but as usual exaggerate to back up your argument yes he gave two forward passes lets retire him now. As for looking tired and jaded he plays longer minutes than anyone in our pack and still leads the line up in defense but you would'nt see that. lets rest him thats all you lot ever say because we have so many players that do a better job get real...
