There's been a lot of love on G&GR for Jarrod Saffey, including having him as a contender for our WC squad by Bob Dwyer. I selected him for my squad as a reserve and gave him a run last week when I had to bench Thompson. It wasn't an inspired choice. Despite an excellent game result for the Rebels, he managed just 11 points, which included 1 error, just 4 tackles made and two missed (zero tackling points) and two long arm penalties. Those are not good stats for someone who is a contender for 6 in our world cup squad.
My other Jarryd (Payne) also scored 11 points which included 10 for a try. Thank goodness he got over the white line!
I guess it was not a good week for Jarrods (Jarryds)
