what an absolute mug this guy is. He left fev high & dry half way through last year when he & fev were doing well, got himself a SL contract sorted, now hasn't turned up. If he problems in PNG then I'm sure theres ways of communicating..

He went home to care for his sick child , you really need to have a word with yourself.

Well he's still mugged you lot off. Get off your high horse too.

Re: Jessie Jo Parker : Fri Dec 10, 2010 11:04 pm  

He did go home to be with his sick son, Just after he had signed for Wakefield. Is son was well again within 2 weeks and Fev told him is services would not be required. It was also mentioned at the time that this would leave him ineligible for a visa due to lack of game time.

Please, you have the current England Academy centre scoring in both tests v the Aussies, i really hope the club gives him more opportunities than signing third rate overseas players.

He's 5h1te. It was hilarious how Wakey fans thought he was going to be their saviour when signing for them, but he is pants. Not up to this level at all.

I'd like to hear how you've formed that opinion. In the games I saw him play for Fev he was always amongst the top two or three players on the field, and had a virtual try per game scoring ratio. He also lost only lost out on NRL contracts with St.George-Illawarra and North Queensland Cowboys due to Visa problems.
Sh*te player, I think not.

So you and the Cas crystal ball brigade have seen him play enough games to judge him properly, well of course you have....not.

I don't know if JJP had a future in the game and neither do you, hearsay and speculation are not a sound way to judge a player. What's for certain is he doesn't know an opportunity to prove his worth when he sees it, which is a shame.

Jessie Joe Parker - Potentially a very good centre, he could and should have been the best centre in the Championship last season. Obviously his time was cut short due to his sons illness.

He was great with the ball in hand and had that little bit of flair that would win that close match.

However his pace was lacking even at the Championship level and his general attitude to me seemed poor of somebody who should be wanting to earn the right to play in competition be it Super League or Championship.

His agent mid-season penned him a contract at Wakefield (allegedly) and with his son 'ill' the best decision was him to go back home and not go back again. Good decision Fev.

Now myself and a vast majority of Fev Fans would agree that he wouldn't cut the mustard in the Super League, if he was going to sign a deal at a Super League team, it would be one of the weaker sides (no offence to Wakefield.)

Would I have him back at Fev? No. We got the chance to bring through a youngster who tried his best and did okay in his first season. Should you sign him? No! Your so much better than that. You'd be better off spending that 30k on his wages/flights/accommodation on bringing through your academy.

Good lad in person, can't knock him for that. But was hoping he'd sign for Wakefield then I could really see if I would be wrong.
