We go deep in this years draft and jacko will be gone for good soon

hardwick thinks he can use him atm so we need to suffer for a bit longer

Would rather Greg White. At least he doesn't stuff everything up when he goes near the ball

It's only taken 9 years but I think I finally worked out how Jacko's footy mind works. If he keeps it simple and predictable with down the line kicks or long kicks into the forward 50 then he's normally fine as good passes to Jack and Vickery tonight showed. It's when he deludely starts thinking he's got the smarts, subtle skills and awareness of a Lids or Cotch and then tries executing low-percentage tricks that he always stuffs up. It's facepalm time when he runs around on a arc without looking and ends up weaving through traffic away from our goals killing the forward momentum or at stoppages him tapping the ball into open space away from where his teammates are  :P. Just K.I.S.S. Jacko.


Spot on spot on

In the last qtr there were some shockers,
"Oh yes I am a dreamer, I still see us flying high!"

from the song "Don't Walk Away" by Pat Benatar 1988 (Wide Awake In Dreamland)

agree totally.
He should also play to his strengths which is his tackling pressure and toughness. Wouldve been great to see him deck someone like Milne....Wouldve satified the AFL footy public.
The club that keeps giving.

Common guys his magnificent mongrel off the side of the boot that kept following the runner was gold, not even daicos can make th ball move like that  ;D

That's right that kick in the second with 4 loose Richmond players found the safety of the boundary line. :lol :rollin :lol

Jacko will be moved out when the likes of Arnott demands his role.

Kingy.  Perfectly legal clash and Kingy didn't miss a beat while Jones went down like he'd been poleaxed!   :gotigers

slow as a wet wick wick cant kick no awareness makes poor decisions most times. these short comings are off set by what exactly. nothing a a real good state league player cant offer.
