Bottom line is that Dixon cannot tackle, and the London coach and many current and future London players will know that.

Expect that if London plays Hull KR in the middle 8 playoffs in 2015, the London attack will be rolling down Dixon's wing.

Yep great speed .... But alas that's it's !!!
But a lovely guy

Speed, step, deceptively strong.

He's not perfect but don't do him a dis-service. Will be a success at KR I'm sure

Hope he has more luck at HKR than Will Sharp did at Hull,

Re: Dixon gone : Wed Aug 20, 2014 12:05 pm  

He's an outstanding attacking talent. He has much more than mere foot speed; he reads play quickly, can improvise and converts a very high proportion of his line breaks into tries.

His relatively poor defensive record is partly a factor of playing in a struggling team and having a procession of ineffective centres inside him.

Good luck to him.

Agreed, my lasting memory of him will be the excellent hat trick he scored against Bradford at Wycombe. The intercept and length of the field try was worth the admission alone. A decent coach will be able to improve his defence - look how Sarginson's defence has improved at Wigan. Good luck Kieran, hope to have you back in a London shirt at some point in the future.

Rubbish. I have seen his feeble attempts to feign tackles, where he just runs to and bounces off the attacker. The boy cannot tackle. End of story.

Do you know your ar$e from your elbow?

I rather used to like your posts but of late you have become a bore. Go start your own forum and give us a rest.

Dixon may not be the greatest defender, but neither was Offiah. But what Doug Laughton did was give Offiah a good centre and second row to look after him and do the defensive shift, thus keeping Offiah fresh to rip the living .... Out of the opposition defence.


Trouble is London has not had a decent centre or second row to support Dixon. I'd sooner see Dixon scoring the sort of tries he does than a beef cake winger who can only tackle due to volume and bulk.

But I am sure you will have some pathetic retort in spiffing good English old chap.


I will miss see Dixon in a London shirt, a bigger loss than Clubb, LMS, Sharp and Sargison put together. I for one hope he kicks on and then sticks it in your pipe and force you to smoke it!


Now crawl off and stop trolling.

Some real glowing and respectfull posts from you guys,I look forward to seeing him in a rovers shirt next year, and i hope to see you in super league shortly.

I'd say LMS is a better player personally, but I agree in general

Yes he isn't the greatest tackler, but put a decent centre inside him and watch him go. He'll score more than he concedes, which will make for entertaining games.
