Argentina Two: Newcastle, 28 November
-
The fact that Jordie has regressed under the AB coaches is such a massive fucking black mark against them. One of many...
After spending most of his career being shunted around, he finally plays a full season in one position and really comes of age. His height, strong defense, big kick and vision all came together perfectly at 15 and he found a great balance between doing the basics well and taking opportunities when they arose without trying to do too much.
He was all class and the Canes were infinitely better when he was on the field.
So what do the AB coaches do? Chuck him out on the fucking wing where he has piss all experience and watch him flounder again as he loses confidence and reverts to trying to do too much and making silly mistakes.
It's so bloody frustrating watching it play out like a slow motion car crash as the coaches just refuse to accept they got it wrong.

Today, they finally (!) seemed to use his skills a bit better but the kicks to him were poor and his confidence looks to be down a fair bit.
It's to some players huge credit they have stuck to the task, so I'll give Jordie a personal pass on not being all that good at 14 as it's not his decision he's playing out of position.

I don't think Jordie has had a fair go. Far and away the best FB in SR. Obvious to all his range of skills at FB.
Put him at FB and the dynamics of AB back play will be immediately apparent. -
I don’t have time to read thread or make any comments at the moment, but Jordie has nudes of Fozzies wife or daughter right? Right!

He offered him the last 2 malteasers in a pack 4 years ago.

Maybe Jordies talent cap is Super Rugby? Anyone thought of that..
Btw Will Jordan was the best full back in super rugby this year and its not even close.
Go take a look at any of the stats and compare the two. Jordan is clearly the pre-eminent full back in the country. -

Hasn't really provided much at 15 this RC.

Maybe Richie's talent cap is super rugby. At least hes been tried in his best position. JB hasn't except for one game

Neither was Jordan. Should be tested at 15 given Jordie is set at 14 and gets all the crosskicks which he is so effective at...

Put him at FB and the dynamics of AB back play will be immediately apparent.It would also help if the coaches can also sort out the back-line. Better first esp and midfield. Jordan and Clarke on the wings

Hes only played a few minutes at test level. Let him start and see how he goes in a tight close game. Not a 38-0 game

@No-Quarter MOTM?! Where he just batted it down for Laumape? Is he going to live off one moment for ever?
Jordan literally made more metres in 15 minutes than Jordie has the last 5 games combined.
Amazing to think Jordan was out of position and doing this..considering how hard it is apparently to go from fullback to wing as some are saying here..

It wasn't a 38-0 game when he came on.
