When he tries to be too cute, he almost always turns it over. Can't fault his effort. Didn't deserve to be subbed off though.

Richo liked his game though and was shocked he was subbed.
Unfortunately not that unusual. His clanger count has been down this year but last night is more the JFN of the past.Unusually poor game so far from Johnny. I am one of his biggest fans, but his turnovers / misses tonight have been costly.
He has plenty of credits in the bank from me though.
Bytel for me should have been subbedI would have subbed markov off. Even though he pulled his finger out at the end
Yep definite option.Bytel for me should have been subbed
When the wind blows south, you go south.And people on here can’t believe he was dropped for the finals series last year![]()
He sets up many goals too. One certainty was smothered by Lobb and he hit Bobby on the **** with a tracer bullet. I would never have subbed Noble. It sends a terrible message from a coach who is urging players to take the game on and windscreen wipe their mistakes away- he suddenly does a backflip and removes a player who gives his heart and soul every time he goes on the ground and takes it on when others are playing safe. You can't have your cake and eat it. You have to take the good with the bad when you have a risk taker and an igniter like Noble.We lost by 3 goals. He directly cost us 3 goals.
Absolutely killed us last night and our chance of top 4. We needed to win last night or next week before the bye.
I think we largely understand why, but we’re not heartless and feel for the bloke after 4 years of consecutive games. It was rough but necessary for the greater good.And people on here can’t believe he was dropped for the finals series last year![]()
He still did some very good things.Just had one of those nights where nothing went right. It happens.
He definitely did.He still did some very good things.
That had nothing to do with poor handpasses or turnovers. It was about his deficiencies in one-on-one contests against bigger stronger opponents.And people on here can’t believe he was dropped for the finals series last year![]()
How do you know?That had nothing to do with poor handpasses or turnovers. It was about his deficiencies in one-on-one contests against bigger stronger opponents.
Yep - Noble is allowed to have a down game. His month before that had been very goodThe alternatives to Noble are HDM, Ryan, Parker and Leggy. I'm sticking with JFN
It was stated that he had lost 12 of 13 or something similar one on one contests in his last four games before the finals. I don't know if that stat was released on SEN or by someone on this forum. Clearly, that is unacceptable and even more so in the intensity of finals. Markov's extra height and strength was an advantage Noble didn't have.How do you know?
