be fascinating to see what Gawn scores tomorrow and what owners find acceptable or not

especially given how many think he was automatically going 150+ for each of the first 6 games
Have a feeling with the Browns/Weideman out he could be used more forward and they let Jackson shoulder a bit more ruck with rookies in the first 3.

I actually haven't seen their team ?

Was Daw named at all or is he still under done ?

Jackson is one hell of a talent so will be interesting how much ruck time they do give him.

I'd be less concerned if he didn't also have 2 scores in his last 8 above his starting average and they're over it by 7 points combined! He actually managed to look worse tonight than the end of last year when I was sure he was going to have a half dozen o***eason surgeries he looked that bad...
Yep this is what I'm more worried about, his form in general.

He absolutely killed me last year with his poor form, it seems since he signed his new contract that his form has tapered!

Could the weight of expectation due to the contract value be affecting his form?
