I'm loathe to post such a post because it just sounds sour grapes etc etc. I hope you've read enough my drivel over the years to be able to discern the difference between a p take and a genuine post.

Brian mcD in a coffee shop was asked by a good friend of mine circa 2019 why JF was never approached for SL.  McD's response was surprisingly in tune with your assessment rather than mine. He really didn't rate him. Has a double pump one way and a decent boot but that's it. Crapola defence.

I don't necessarily agree with his assessment but I do acknowledge McD has forgotten more about rugby than I'll ever know.

The double pump thing is bang on, it's his go to move and when it works looks great, but he seems to do it in every attack. He does look very lazy in defence in the games I've seen him in.

I was always a massive fan of Cooke, a very talented player. He played for Donny at Town and we barely laid a finger on him, just totally dominated the game and made it look so easy.

In not being vaxxed he didn't break the law in France. It just meant that he couldn't play for as long as the measures were in place.

Indeed, but faking a vaccine to circumvent those measures is breaking the law in France.

Nor for me.   Ford isn’t and wasn’t involved enough.  Certainly a good player at Championship level though.

Paul Cooke was a Very Clever player, but he could also defend.

Any opposing side would just run at JF. Its like running through crackerbread !!

I could see an edge with Ford, Macdonald and Inu being quite entertaining if not massively frustrating 🤣

It might need inu and macdonald to do the extra defensive work....cos fordy's approach to tackling is similar to my approach to weight management....
