Why jake Connor isn't in the England squad : Tue Mar 08, 2022 12:22 am  
Slowest full back ever that's why

The only full back who can't catch any player when they break the line

Just watch edens try against us

Liam farrell out paced him as well for exiles... Yep Liam farrell :| as 3 others did as well ast season

Yet some of our deluded fans think he's the best full back in the world :CRAZY:

Another victim of modern rugby. A half that is moved to FB whether or not he can catch or tackle so that they can play as that 3rd man in attack.

Connor needs to wind the sledging in and concentrate on his footy.
Coaching staff has spoke to him about it as have match officials.

No just a point why exactly he's not in the England squad

Full backs are supposed to be able to tackle when a player breaks the line Connor never stops anyone

You was obviously loving Connor when Eden made him look daft though :?

Didn't notice at the time but even smith stepped him for the first try

Him and Savelio. However, I prefer to look at why attackers have broken the 12 players stood in front of the full back before calling out the full back.

But the whole point of having a full back is to stop breaks

There's not a team who stop clean breaks for a full 80

Connor gets beat far too often

And against Australia it's the cover tackles that win the games as they will break the line a fair few times

Eden should of been stopped on Sunday on that break and well if Liam farrell is out pacing your full back that's a big problem

Most fullbacks in SL aren’t speedy. Look at Warringtons, My gran is quicker and she’s been dead for 20’years. She’s also better in attack than Warringtons despite being dead for 20 years
