Justin and Jordan aren't built for this type of game, but then neither is Dan Thomas and he managed to thrive. Nathan White was totally anonymous and should have been replaced much earlier.
Excellent interview by Adam Powell after the game- that was the highlight for us.
Diggy Bird looked sharp when he came on.
justin was one of the stand out performers,and it's true that jordan doesn't communicate which is why he's been playing full back.
 
I hope that Steve has a word with him then, so that Jordan can continue to develop. In saying that I hope that he doesn't develop a mouth like Biggar !

There was no structure to the Llanelli game, and hard as they tried to get the ball out to Dan and Lee bach, the conditions weren't suitable for it today. Dan Thomas looked good though coming on 2nd half, good run, jackal turnover. On the downside, shorts too tight Thumbs Down


I Sky+ the game and watched it tonight. Granted the Llanelli boys were deprived of players re call ups to the Regional squad but at the same time it was a pretty poor performance all round, especially as I thought Keys were pretty poor as well.

Re Jordan, you say it was too heavy under foot for him and Omri states that " He isn`t built" for that sort of game.

I wasn`t impressed with him on Saturday but am willing to accept that maybe he had an off day, although I did find some of his play baffling, as his team mates seemed to do. And if he can`t cope with that Cross Keys team in the mud (because of lack of height/weight) then he is no where near ready for the Rabo. 

He just needs to be left alone to develop

I'd agree there, maybe its best just to give him exposure at 15 this season and then look to give him more experience at 10 next season, Owen Williams has always impressed me whenever I've seen him play 10 for the RFC, anyone know much about him? age, age grade rugby etc.?

Keeps under the radar does Owen..still only 19 i think...didn't make the Wales grade team, but then he has Jordan and Sam Davies in the mix too..always looks neat and tidy to me.

Tondu.  Dan Hodge has now been brought into the Dragons squad to play the Sprays on Friday. Not only did he go unpunished but he's now being promoted.

Agree with most of these comments. First time I've seen Llanelli this season (on S4C) - very disappointed. Some forum members have been 'bigging up' Jordan and others in the team, but on this performance they are a long way short of Pro 12 standard at the moment. Keys had a simple game plan, which they executed well - Llanelli did not appear to have a game plan at all!

The younger players clearly need more time to develop.
I share no-one's ideas. I have my own.
