Bring back GB Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Jarrod in the Malta squad for this Saturday. Great for him but bad for Barrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennington Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Well this is absolutely terrible news for us, he is one of our key players. Time for Carter and Johnson to step up I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruner Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 I don't see this as terrible news at all. Opportunity for Carter and Johnson back together. They look good when they play together. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJD Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 With a bit of luck he'll have a shocker and won't be selected again. I think the two youngsters will relish the challenge and be motivated to perform well, they're doing a pretty good job so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E Johnson Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 He just managed the three tries and nine goals in Malta,s 66 - 6 win. Seems like he enjoyed himself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve75 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 This is just an observation - Jake Carter's tackling is woeful at best and it doesn't take teams long to realise this and target him because of it. Otherwise they are able to cover any player losses at halfback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakes defence is probably the best out of all the half backs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve75 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 A few times today they just ran over him, he manages better when he's tackling with others. I guess he'll learn and improve though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise they are able to cover any player losses at halfback! Jake's defence has improved massively over the season as he has bulked up a bit and probably given him more confidence. Not sure if you want to watch the Widnes game again but his in game kicking had great depth and put Widnes on the back foot. Yesterday yes he missed a couple of conversions but again in game, spot on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bret missed a few tackles, didn’t rate him when he was with us a few year back, can’t see why Barrow have brought him back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think Brett has done a decent job for us since he’s been back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No questioning his kicking ability at all - just his tackling at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
