He is awful

Never understood any hype around him and last night confirmed there shouldn't be any

His defence is awful but his attack is brilliant.

Anthony Rea (aka "Tony Ray") needs to focus on teaching Dixon to tackle around the legs.

Is it?

I've never seen anybody pick up a scoot in front of their posts 20 metres out and end up in touch before.

He's quick I'll give him that but so was Kevin Penny

From what I have seen of him (highlights reels and a few tv games) he has the raw talent.....he needs to be coached properly and that includes the basics like tackling around the legs.

Perhaps that should have been done before sticking him in the first team...

Yep. Even us fat andLazy Union playing types had tackling and passing skills drilled into us from, a very early age......it is very hard for a player to run if you've got him by the legs

It is not too late. He is still very young.
