So what happen to Marlon King, Swaby and Jerry Hue ? Is Claude Davis injured ?

Ian Goodison ?? Now you all don't think I'm dissing him because in the Golden Era of the reggaeboyz he was one of my favorite players but come on are'nt we building for 2010 ?
Is this Seba yout any good ? Is Tappa playing favoritism ?

**Tilla** · November 13, 2007, 12:37 PM

King seh im cudden mek it at this time. Tappa seh Hue nuh ready.

I read that King exuded excitement at being recalled but had to decline the present games because of club commitments etc. He said he will be available for subsequent games.

Geddes is good and should've been called before. The real brow-raiser here is the absence of the Reno players, in particular Nicholy Finlayson.

Jerry will be there when the real roll is called. Swaby was a favourite of Bora, so I believe there must be some quality to him. Maybe he is carrying an injury. And I believe Claude is injured; anyway his absence isn't that much of a loss (in my opinion).

Pepe is fit and playing in a league comparable to or slightly more competitive than the CPPL. If Bora can summon Fowly Stewart, then I see no reason why Tappa shouldn't call Pepe. Let him first fail at the national level and then we can have a basis for our disapproval.

I heard much about Oneke Ford and Karl Wiggan of Sporting Central. Hope the coaching staff take a look at them.

Here's a question though: Where is Fabian Dawkins?

Thanks fi de imput but one more thing Fabian Taylor has never really impressed me, I watched him play every home game for the Metros when he was here and other than that first game where he came off the bench and scored 2 goals he was average at best now is he tearing up the NPL /
Can't see how he got called.

**Lionpaw** · November 13, 2007, 12:52 PM

Jah know star, mi rate the squad, glad sya him go back fi Jason Morisson, Portmore product, soon to be one of, if not the best midfielder we have. I only got a couple bones to pick with that lineup. Where the hell is Ricado Cousins name??? Him really believe say Geddes better than Cousins???? And whamp'n to the great Maestro?!?!?!?! He is the type of player Whitmore use to be(not saying he was as good you Whitmore worshipers), or Kieth Kelly. Come on Tappa. Glad say Rudi Austin in the squad though. Him ago show the world wha Portmore been up to.

Yeah man thanks fi remind me. Oneke could prove himself likkle more if yuh ask me but WHAMP'N to Wigan?? After mi see dat man mash up some bigger side defense, especially Ruxie View, he certainly should be included in the camp. Also, Demar Phillips, I think he's the only Ja born,overseas-based player left out, even though he played well in his last 15 min against Sheff U saturday(I watched the live stream). Must feel a way still.

**Sickko** · November 13, 2007, 01:03 PM

Dawkins is not match fit and looks to be working his way in form, last two times I saw him he is getting back there.

**Farmah** · November 13, 2007, 01:09 PM

Re: "the only Ja born, overseas-based player left out."

You're forgetting about Teofore Bennett; Oneil Thompson; Omar Cummings; Stephen Deroux; Akeem Priestly; Nicholas Addlery; Roen Nelson; Jacomena Barrett; and Joel Senior !

**Tilla** · November 13, 2007, 01:18 PM

Also, Demar Phillips, I think he's the only Ja born,overseas-based player left out, even though he played well in his last 15 min against Sheff U saturday(I watched the live stream).

Teofore Bennett and Ryan Johnson are both Jamaican born players not included. So to are Oniel Thompson (Norway), Nicholas Addlery (DC United), Omar Cummings (Colorado Rapids) and Stephen deRoux (DC United).

Anyway, we have to agree that not every player can be called at this time.

**Sickko** · November 13, 2007, 01:37 PM

That is true and as some one else pointed out, no player from Reno, but I do know Tappa went to STETHS on Sunday to see Findlayson, maybe the incident at the gate upset him so badly he could not be objective

**Lionpaw** · November 13, 2007, 01:37 PM

My bad. I should've typed "english-based", which is what I meant.

OJ · November 13, 2007, 04:46 PM

seriously no Jermaine Hue?

**Sickko** · November 13, 2007, 04:51 PM

seriously...no, he cant make this midfield

OJ · November 13, 2007, 06:22 PM
