Professional foul - he should know better( ultimately putting the icing on the cake for the losing the game) Missing conversions Sloppy passes again and again - it's as if he just wants rid of the ball Same moves over and over again ( opposition know exactly what he will do next) Bad kicking in general throughout the game So rant over- but what about the future of Danny Jones at Cougars, because for me he isn't producing the goods at all this season, his game in general hasn't been good since his return Any thoughts? Comments from the club? What things are been done for under performing players or are they just been left to get away with playing poorly. As this game isn't the only poor game Jones as had recently surely I'm not the only fan who as noticed this. Things need to be done before it's to late - it's just not Paul March fault why we are playing badly but some of our players as well |

I.M.O. Before he went to Halifax he was a great commited player but since he has come back he has slowly gone down the preverbial in All aspects of his game. |

Come on - he's an experienced current international and there aren't many of those available to the Cougars right now. He gives 100% every game and does more in defence than most people notice. The back line has rarely clicked this season and some tend to focus on Jones - but there are others in the backs that have gone backwards a lot more this year. In the Batley match this week, if you watch the video, you'll see Jones sprint across the backline to join in making a try scoring overlap on the other side of the field. No player who 'wasn't trying' would have needed to do that. It's the fact that he is having to try too hard IMO that means he makes the odd glaring error. My view is that he is best seen as a scrum half and I'd like to see him at 7 and Leatherbarrow at 6 for a couple games as an experiment. |

I sometimes look on here and have to wonder; doom and gloom, individual players being slagged-off. You look at the other forums of teams in our position and worse and see how positive they are. Barrow are advertising a supporters meeting and the discussion is whether the bar will be big enough to hold it! Barrow, by the way, are bottom of the league and in serious financial trouble. I do recall one visiting supporter saying he was amazed how Keighley 'fans' are always getting on the back of the players. I am not sure we deserve a top team. |

This is neither a fair nor balanced poll and just appears designed to get others to confirm the OP's views. To be fair and balanced it would need two more columns: * Danny is fine and his inclusion in the team is justified. * Danny is playing below his own high standard and appears lacking in confidence. There is no doubt that, at times, the TEAM performance has been awful and some moaning is definitely justified, but some of the comments on here just beggar belief. However, I do accept that people have the right to express their opinion. |

Some people don't see the game the same way I see it. I often have a strong opinion at the game, but on reflection of seeing the whole game, errors, effort, good luck, back luck, and everything in the video I still rate Danny J very highly. He is a half back who will play anywhere asked. He has on numerous occasions taken a yellow for the team in prof fowl situations. In match saving moments I recall twice. I think moving him to full back leaves a gap in the halves. Answer if anything is we need to clone Danny Jones like Dolly the sheep and have one for the halves and another for full back. |

Having watched micky's video I can now see what you say about J but I still feel way too many errors he creates and yes before it's said Marchy also make errors but that's because he is trying to hard same mistakes JD made. I like your idea of him playing at 7 I think he is wasted at full back but defiantly not the same player that went to Halifax and certainly one of the worst player on the pitch Sunday , now compare to Shickell 150% given and was surprised to be told he was injured but still played now that's one player who gets the fans support shame we don't have a few more with that attitude |

Well done just what we need someone who gets binned for 10 mins which cost us dearly against batley. I feel we were still in that game until jones got binned and it was one of the stand out games for me, so far this season if anything we struggled with kicking again we missed 3 conversions in the first half which would of been 18 -6 up at half time instead as you know it was only 12 - 6 up a converted try which to me gave batley a bit of a boost after half time, which is why I believe if we had kicked one it would of better than all missed so why didn't scott get a chance?, anyway no doubt ill keep coming down cause that's what I do but I also think that we should cut ties with cas if we are not utilising the duel reg to its full potential theres no point end of. |
