Josh Jackson MOTM

[Frank_Grimes]

Putting aside the lunacy of picking the MOTM 20min before the end of the game, I don't think Jackson was even the best player for the Blues.

49min for 67 metres and 26 tackles is hardly awe-inspiring stuff. Tedesco, Maloney and Woods all had a greater impact on the game for NSW...

 

[Haffa]

Australian selectors pick the winner don't they?

 

[betcats]

Jackson was NSW best easily imo. Only Dugan got close.

Edit: Jake Turbo was very good also.

 

[Jason Maher]

He was fantastic in his first stint, and then for some unknown reason Daley kept him off for half an hour. Daley is a pleb tier coach and needs to f**k off yesterday.

 

[Desert Qlder]

Gavin Cooper was far superior in a winning side.

 

[grouch]

Josh McGuire.. as much as I loathe him... was the man of the match.

 

[DOGS AND EELS!!!]

He was pretty good yesterday but I kinda feel he's a ball hog tbh. Like does he know how to pass?

 

[Meth]

Yeah, I thought McGuire too.

Jackson went good, but I don't get all the hype around him to be honest. He seems to be a toiler that gets superstar treatment. But then again, Sterling knows more than me.

 

[King hit]

I seriously wonder who decides these awards. Jackson had a good game but he wasn't the best on the ground. There have been a lot of poor mom decisions so this is nothing new. Fifita was by far the best in the grand final last year and at least 5 Cowboys were better than JT in 2015. Even the king got mom awards that were undeserving.

 

[RecordBreakingMaroons.]

Man Of The Match award was decided by someone that Jackson owed money to.

 

[MilkShark]

MOTM to Gagai.

Encouragement award to Jackson.

 

[Bronco18]

McGuire or Napa for mine.

Sure NSW made errors but if anyone deserves credit for turning up the intesntiy for QLD it goes to those two who led the line.

He got the winning try and played very well but I think they got the CCM right for once.

Seems nothing whatever was learned from the Bradley Clyde travesty of 1991.

.

Cronulla wouldn't have won without him. Made 40 tackles, 20 carries, ran for over 200 meters, busted 10+ tackles and scored the most important try in the history of the Cronulla club. Clear winner for mine.

Fair enough, I wouldn't have complained if he'd won it.

Yeah nah.

If you cannot see the thing is rigged after (Fifita's GF efforts ) then you can't be helped.
It was the classic front towers GF MOM display.
There was no way they would give it to him....regardless of his performance.

Even Luke Lewis looked dumbfounded when his name was as called out.

 

[RecordBreakingMaroons.]

Luke Lewis deserves a medal simply for being Luke Lewis.

Josh has retired. A great career propped up by media minions who were convinced this guy was Made for Origin™
