There is another up and coming lad in the U19's from Crigg who knocking on the door too

Jack Croft?

You either know who I am or you have just accidentally posted the funniest reply ever on this forum

People will shoot me down but over last few weeks i watched jorden closley wanting and wishimg him to be great but unfortunatley other than hard work i cant see what he offers.the lad may have a future in sl but for me if we want to go forward he isnt the answer

Good defender for a 20 minute spell but fatigue clearly sets in for him and he has no second wind.

And offers nothing with ball in hand

For me he needs to continue to drive with his legs upon the impact of the tackle, it’s like he’s touched and then drops instantly

Sorry Jordan, I've always thought that you were worth persevering with, but a very disappointing display tonight. So many knock ons and dropped ball. A drastic improvement is required.

I must have missed those many knock ons etc

Oooops!!!! You're right, phe. It was Jowitt that I was thinking of. Sorry Jordan! Back to Specsavers for me

Personally I think it’s shameful that a young lad who has only been given an opportunity recently and done well is being singled out in a performance where we simply did not have the size to match cas and his performance was on a par with much more seasoned pros in a wakey shirt

Agreed

He took a bad knock tonight and was really reeling before eventually going down.

I thought I went off with a head knock just after Grix.

Jeez some people just can't wait to bag a player cab they.
He was fine tonight in tough circumstances.
He isn't Sculthorpe or Farrell but he's still developing.

I can't say I'm keen to watch it back but he got through his work and did his job. Why single him out.

I find some people are just vultures waiting for a poor performance to sweep in and pick over the bones but stay quiet while the good things are happening.
That's way more disappointing than the players performance.

A bit harsh to bag a young player like that after last night, especially as, when quite rightly pointed out, went off quite early with a head knock

Bet you didn't say that Hudds away.

Find the Huddersfield thread, I said exactly that after the game.

Jordy is a young lad learning the game and has had a great season at Dewsbury, he has come back and got an opportunity to show what he can do. Yes he may find the junp up to SL hard who wouldnt but I see a young lad grafting and working like made tremedous defence and lots to learn, I was at the game last night and saw one snippet on the screen where Horo was clearly giving him some pointers. He is exactly what we need going forward he may develop into a Richard Slater type player a type every club needs. I have seen nothing that shows Jordy does not have the ability. I saw us dominated last night with our put together pack and half backs I am not sure what some people expect from our players every game!

Well said







Once again, when things dont go well some fans need a scapegaot.
Lucky for Grix that he'd gone off injured



Those knocking his performance could maybe point out which of our back rowers stood out last night.
Apart from Pauli and Arona, I thought all of our forwards were some way behind the Cas pack.

We were 2 props short and it showed in the result and that's without the injuries and discipline that made it so easy for Cas in the first half

Agree 100% with this. The lad isn't the finished article but who is when they start out. What he did show was effort and enthusiasm and certainly doesn't deserve being singled out

He’s been singled out by Leedscat before so no surprise there, but just to pick up on the dropping down early, if you’ve ever played the game then you’ll know to try and play the quick ball which may put you on the front foot or gain penalties. Jordan also played on injured in the second half then spending 2 hours in Pinders after the game, if you don’t believe me then invest in Trinity tv and listen to CC post match interview leedscat or even better come and see me at any game and I will gladly talk to you about his commitment on and off field work rate to try and be that perfect player you want.

Good comment Big lads mate. The people on here who bag players have either never pulled a pair of boots on or, if they’ve played, they should know how how hard the game can be at top level and be ashamed.

Don’t bite mate, those that count, know.

Can’t believe the comments regarding our young players ! Jordan has been given a chance and taken it with both hands ... give the young lad a chance to develope along with Max Jowitt . We don’t realise how lucky we are to have such talented youngsters along with likes of Batchelor . I really hope we extend Jordan’s contract because our loss with be someone else’s gain
