The defnsive alignment certainly improved when Jimmy came on. He was certainly dircting things.

That was the best Jimmy has played this season. Vocal, aggressive, and willing to get stuck in. Really good to see
Can't help wondering if Jimmy has been beating himself up over his drop in form with the kicking tee and it affected the rest of his game. On Friday, he came on earlier than he might have expected due to Booj's injury but with Lima retaining the kicking duties so he was able to really get stuck in and show his considerable leadership skills which were desperately needed in such a loose game.

I've thought that Lima's positioning has been a big part of his problem defensively at full back.
Sometimes he's just a step or 2 too far away to get in the best position, or allowing himself to be stepped easily.

That feels like it's his inexperience of playing at 15.
