The barnstorming Jake Trbplodervic

[Pistol_Pete]

For those who thought his origin "performances" were an anomaly, Jurbo churned out another big one at Leichhardt yesterday:
7 hitups for 34m
37 tackles (33 as 3rd or 4th man in)
2 "That's golds" to his brother (the decent one not the other shit one)
0 competition points

I thought by lunch today that CDF would have shown his face in these parts to compare some of his later performances at Oberon Tigers to Jurbo's last night but that would have been harsh on CDF and selling himself short. Or perhaps, CDF is now Jurbo's agent and is negotiating a 3 year captain coach deal for Jurbo where he will make hot dogs before the big derby with Bathurst Bulldogs. Whatever the explanation, Jurbo is making 2024 Klemmer look like 2016 Tamololo. Jurbo is oozing Matt Gafa, Scott Sattler and Nick Graham in his yardage efforts.

There was a set when Manly were coming back hard where they had two awesome runs making 15m+ each, followed up by Jake Plodbo taking the 3rd run and making about 6m and going down like a sack of shit on first contact.

7 hitups for 34m

That's some Sharron Woods level effort right there

I had to use the LU search function for CDF and came up with Croydon Dog Food. Still never heard of the f*cker.

Following thread because I also have no f**king idea who or what a CDF is.

Not sure, but since it involves Manly and I don't have a certificate from Harvard TAFE, it is over my head.

The man was a legend back in the day!! So much starch in his posts.

Haha I've been an on again off again member for 20 years so have seen plenty of characters over the years. He was one that stood out

 

[BuffaloRules]

Nice Nick Graham mention…his Tigers stint was something special

Do yourself a favour. LU Tiger fan royalty.

Bring back MOTH and his six pocket theory while we're at it.

As soon as I read this I knew the exact hitup you were talking about lol.

 

[Wizardman]

A problem that Manly simply choose not to deal with....and it is costing them plenty. It is okay to have defensive focused in your line-up....but with Jake's wage, you simply need to offer more than that.

Jurbo is good, but is he vintage Adam Blair good?

 

[perverse]

Do they pick him in teams to make sure everyone else puts in the effort to cover for his plodness? Nice bloke but.

There’s some players who come into grade and we hear about how good they are. They steal a living off the game based on that despite never actually doing anything. For more examples see Josh Jackson or Moses M’Bye.

Still remember the Matty John’s show giving Jurbo their worker of the week award for 24 tackles and 84m from a dozen hit ups.

Blokes like CDH and IanG were the backbone of LU in its halcyon days. You could say they were themselves, full of starch.

IanG wasn’t starchy. He as Da Champ! He was the GOAT!

There was one legend of LU and his name is ClintDogg
