Jackson Hastings #251

Sheens doesn't need to explain anything to anyone.

We all know why Hastings left.

No hard feelings.

For more money….
Also becoming obvious - it doesn’t matter to him where it is, as long as he’s getting what he wants. Knights will be another stepping stone in the path for him - hopefully, upwards…
I can’t see it though.

The media around the NRL off the field stuff has become almost bigger than the game itself. Not sure it's them who we should blame for it, or the fans who have this need to know stuff - fact or fiction.

If it is all about Hastings then all good it seems

A nothing article by Weedler....Hastings is too slow to be an effective half back...Sheens saw it Hastings didn't....The Knights will soon find out

I'm not sold on this but time will tell. Brooks has been our half for years and we've never had any success. Brooks is fast.

Brooks has rarely played behind a decent pack....2023 will be different

I swear they just make this crap up hahaha honestly any one could be journo these days

I liked Hastings ability to organise and lead on-field, and I reckon we would have won more games if we weren't decimated by injuries.

But he's now onto his 6th club which speaks volumes about his attitude off-field.

Weedler is a tool.

Plays favourites and since no one from the Tigers will talk to him he'll always try to stick the boot in.

No surprise he has another SBW puff piece this week and helps out his mate Gus with positive Bulldogs news too.

Weidler's stocking-filler for Xmas three weeks out.

Hastings may not have been quick but at least he had drive and a brain. Couldn't care less that he 'ruffled a few feathers by offering his thoughts.

 

[Speed2burn]

Sounds like he’s still a bit self entitled

Probably still got another 5 clubs left in him in his career

Hastings never made the leadership group?
Seems odd, considering most posters here thought he was the leader we needed?
I think he’ll kill it at Knights and probably play his best against us 😜

I hope so. I don't think he is that bad but he isn't a great decision maker at key times and decision making is so critical in that role.

I hope they at some point let him be a running half and the other half makes the key decisions. Then I remember Hastings told him to kick it last season and it was the wrong decision.

If Brooks can improve his decision making and make sure he is tidy in everything he does especially defensively then maybe he can do the job.

Cue all the Brooks fan boys looking for any form of vindication....🤣🤣🤣

It didn’t take other teams too long to work out how to nullify our attack, it was all based around Hastings stop him and you killed our attack.
He was too slow to change the way he set up our attack and didn’t vary it at all.
I think he would have been good at 13 playing an extra half in attack, but I don’t think he could have lasted too long there physically.

Interesting to think what the need for Hastings is to post rehab videos to social media.

The same can be said for Luke. Our pack struggled (rated worst) and we were punished last season.

It's hard to get a roll on if your engine can't even hit second gear.

He was convinced he was going
to be picked for England in the RLWC
if you recall.. coming off a long
injury. The kid is stubborn.
I don't know his personal situation
but I was suss on him when I heard
him talk about his father & how he
didn't care about him. He lives in his
own little world. G'luck in Newy bro
