Well his first half was as poor as any I've seen by anyone in our colours!

Nothing to discuss, thread title says it all!

Think you're all over reating a bit here, I don't know whats happened to him in this recent season especially, when he first got here he was playing a lot better, so I hope this switch to Full Back will get his confidence back, that way he will perform better. He looks like his confidence metre is running on empty at current form, hopefully with extra confidence he will improve back to his original form for us.

He was one of our best players for the first three years, agree he is playing like a drain, in fact a fixed drain might tackle better - but his confidence seems shot at the moment, so i hope it comes back soon. Not sure about full back, surely Melling a better option?

Will he make the exiles team!

One of 5 or 6 revolving doors in defence.

He is currently incapable of tackling, I don't know why that is but just not good enough.

Not a lot of options are there? I'm with Tim, play him at FB, he played a few NRL games there and looked OK there against Salford. If Dorn's done his hamstring (mostly due to his own lethargic approach to picking up a ball in the in-goal area) we're going to need a new FB.

Then Pryce at centre, as hinted by Purdo in his ES interview.

Knowing how prone the mind is to confirmation bias I had a look at the stats for our back line. According to Opta they are:

Tackles made - Tackles missed - % missed
Howell 200 - 24 - 10.7%
Clubb 242 - 22 - 8.3%
Dorn 35 - 9 - 20.4%
Gale 253 - 36 - 12.5%
Melling 84 - 12 - 12.5%
O'Callaghan 168 - 8 - 4.6%
Pryce 78 - 8 - 9.3%
Randall 271 - 26 - 8.7%

[Can't work out how to format that properly

JOC can't tackle though. He's worse than Dorn.

You don't believe Opta then? As noted above they show that he is heads and shoulders the most reliable tackler of all our backs.

Listy let facts get in the way of a good argument, surely not. JOC for full back!

Opta tell of tackles made while playing at full back? Opta notes the exact situation each tackle is made in? Opta details 1 on 1 tackles made?

What utter nonsense.

I base my opinion on what I have seen with my own eyes, and I believe JOC would be a liability at full back.
