I think the line that he was too unhappy to tackle or too homesick to track back does kind of iognore that Kevin Gallen flagged that there were questions about his work-rate and physicality before he joined us.
I'd like to think that he learned from the coaches, the players and the fans what's acceptable and what isn't, and that he improved. That would make it less likely that he'd revert, hopefully.
I agree with you that he's player of the season to date. And by a distance too.
He went games without tackling in his first season, numerous games without one single tackle. I saw numerous instances of him not tracking back. Just giving up, and not bothering.
He definitely hid behind players so as not to get the pass, but then so did Colback (we love him, Nixy! :) ). This bit, I can understand. This might be fear. This might be lack of confidence. I can get that.
But not tracking back to help out your team-mates? Not tackling for the ball to help out your team-mates?
I've been thinking about this all day, and I can't believe how little I know about Jesse Jackson.
When I was doing my catholic confirmation aged eleven, I had to pick a 'confirmation name'. I picked Luther. It was a tribute to Martin Luther King. It might have also been just to annoy the Bishop. We ended up having a chat about it. I went with Joseph in the end, but I got concessions in other areas. A long story.
Anyway, all this is to point out how much I adored Martin Luther King. But, while I'd heard about Jesse Jackson, and continued to hear about him, I'm ashamed to admit that I really know very little about him.
So, all I can say is that from what I know he seemed to make a hugly positive effect on the world and on humanity. He seemed to be on the caring side, the human side, whenever I did hear his name.
Ar dheis Dé. Say hello to Martin if that's possible at all.
