Glen Jackson

I've heard from friends that he's a really good player.
Haven't seen much though.
 
GP is alot faster than the super 14 imo. South Africa and Australia have all the good players i find that the New Zealand are simply over-rated losing 2 matches on the row is not good enough to be classed the number 1 team in the world and they simply got owned by a quality wallabies team.

I find the best in the super 14 is steyn,habana,smit, giteau, tuqiri and also Quade Cooper is very young and has a huge heap of potential, i wouldn't class some new zealand players as the best they have a good team but i think there streak as undefeatable is going to end or is coming to an end.

steynboi, go have a **** over Frans Steyn and get with the system. The ELVs have made the Super 14 and Tri Nations faster than it was under the old laws. The club I play for was pretty well unbeatable this year but we then lost 2 games in a row but no-one said we were overrated and shouldn't be the no.1 team in the comp. Funny that the following week the All Blacks gave it to the Wallabies, get Steyn off your mind and think a bit before you dribble some more smeg over this forum

he's entitled to his opinion mate, no need to throw lewd insults around. I agree slightly with what he was saying, the bit that All Blacks have long lost their 'unbeatable' tag. Not really sure where any of the Tri-Nations teams are - they've all been very inconsistent this year. And why d'you bring up teh ELV's? Nobody's mentioned anything about the ELV's in this thread?
 
Don't worry mate, MLegg's just unhappy because his 'Quins are going to get humped by the Men in Black :D
 
Lol. I swear every debate i say that my team will beat the team they do it heavily like when sa beat australia. I look forward to seeing a similar scoreline from saracens v quins.
 
Twas a bit harsh on the poor little fella, but reading smeg like that really just annoys me. The facts are all the that the S14 this year was faster than its ever been. And no I'm not fussed the Quins are gonna get flattened, I'll miss the game anyway so I wont have to watch it :p
 
Super14 and even Anz Cup is alot faster with the ELV's and it's more enjoyable to watch because it keeps the ref out of the game alot more whereas with the old rules he ref would be yelling the hell out of rucks pull up full arm instead of short arm penalites and slowing the game down.

Anyway back to the topic Glen Jackson I hope he is as good as the they say he is now because he just couldn't get anywhere in New Zealand and I heard he wants to represent England and good on him just like Riki Flutey I reckon he should grab it with both hands and be proud to if he gets the chance. He represented the Nz Maori so the international scene wont be new to him, anyway good luck to him.
 
Haha... Rikki Flutey.

If Glen Jackson is so good, which as a Chiefs supporter I usually overrate player like him, then how come he wasn't picked in the England squad? THey had enough space for Rikki Flutey so how is it that Jackson is so good? Are you saying that Rikki Flutey is international standard?

When lots of these players leave it's because they can't crack the AB's jersey, or even their province/franchise. Have a look at guys like Junior Poli...Polu...Pola? Junior Poli, who wasn't even a starter for Harbour and yet he was wrapped up by Toulon. This is why places like France and England have rugby in a deteriating state, they get rubbish players in their teams which can't play for them and then they don't allow young talented players to develop.

oh dont worry its getting replayed on ITV4 you must watch it! :p.

Glen Jackson was the premiership top points scorer last season or a few seasons ago... he wont want to play for england why would he and carter whos now going to get overpaid will just turn into wilkinson and be a one man team and be the one to make sure they win jsut like england always do. And look where england have got without wilkinson nowhere!. They flukely beat australia and france in the world cup and then they got there asses whipped by south africa. I'm just saying that carter is over-rated and over-paid and soon be turned into a wilkinson where he is the one to lead them and then when hes not there the AB's will start to lose and then when carter comes back with so much pressure on his shoulders people will really find out that he is over-rated. He is very good though.

[/b][/quote]I agree I reckon Carter's over-rated when he's in a Canterbury/Crusaders jersey I hate him but I don't mind it when he's in the Black jersey.

Gees are you serious was Glen Jackson the Premiership top points scorer?. I just couldn't imagine it because he was pretty craphouse here just like Flutey that's why we let them go. Who does Glen Jackson play for now? he must be getting on a bit because he was in his late 20's when he left our shores.
