Player Watch #2 Jacob Hopper

[captain cotch 9]

Should change his name to Jacob Stopper. Just stops all momentum.

 

[The_Kraken]

If Sonsie has even one good half this weekend, Hopper is officially our new whipping boy.

Deservedly so too
On big long term contract

He’s a ****en lazy tractor with the turning circle of the late Queen Elizabeth that kicks like Lieutenant Dan from Forrest Gump

 

[Sol23]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned it but yeah I thought it looked like he had put on a bit of weight in pre-season, but I could be wrong

Was definitely noticeable at the game last week. Looks way to heavy

 

[Sol23]

Name one big contract recruit that’s been dropped , it won’t happen

Polec for north

And they're his good qualities at the moment

He was a gun at GWS, what the **** happened?

 

[Mr Unbelievable]

He was a gun at GWS, what the **** happened?

I think Shedda destroyed his powers when he cleaned him up in 2019 granny

 

[RichoLedio]

 

[RichmondEshays]

If this guy was a racehorse he’d be shot. Embarrassing performance take off the jumper

 

[crackertiger]

Oh boy...

 

[Hotton On]

Get the F out of the team. Do the honourable thing and walk. Yze too clueless to do it himself

 

[DustinsGuns]

He's done.

13 touches for 53m gained @ 53% DE with 4 clangers is diabolical.

 

[Le RickyBobby]

Never deserved to wear the jumper. An absolute disgrace.

If he keeps his spot next week it says a lot about selection integrity.

 

[Hoos]

If he keeps his spot next week it says a lot about selection integrity.

Of course he'll keep his spot.

 

[Delorean]

Made a joke RE Thomson Dow vs Tyler Sonsie in the gameday thread. Sounds horrible, but who would you rather - Thomson Dow or Jacob Hopper

? Dow could at least hit a handball.

 

[GhostofJimJess]

Awful first half, including three terrible handball turnovers. The third of these was a true momentum shifter against us.

Thankfully got a lot better in the second half, but the damage was done.

Between him and Jack Ross

, we have two really slow and sloppy mids.

 

[lizard man]

Should have played him in the ruck

 

[Calcium Man]

 

[Sol23]

Horrible again.
No such thing as selection integrity at rfc though.

 

[tiger_tough]

I'd rather get belted by 80 without him than lose by 10 goals with him.

McAuliffe needs to be a starting mid from next week onwards. Enough is enough.

 

[Dragonss]

What the hell is this match committee doing?
At this point it's like making costly clangers per game is part of his contract and he goes to ground at every opportunity like he's scrubbing the floors. Take him out for a mop, at least a mop stays on its feet. You can't justify putting him in the team due to his experience because he's showing the kids what you're not supposed to do.

 

[db26]

End this for him and the side trying to play him in form laughable
