Worth a try.

Play him in the forward line and see what he can do.

Hopefully he does well and we trade him at the end of the year.

Good decision, we should bring in Pettifer vs Essendon as well  ;D then the grand plan has a chance of coming to fruition.

If Joel's going to play it's only going to be as a forward. He better kick straight this week though. I reckon he's on his last chance.

Hope they resist the temptation to throw him into the back line if things aren't going too well. For better or worse he is not the future back there.

we need to build his currency up, perhaps later in the year then come season's end. goodbye.

if we r to move forward i dont see a spot for him in the team.

we have others more than capable to fill his role

i cant believe were still persisting with him.

tezza has realises jolene is way too slow now for the backline so what does he do?

he moves jolenes exquisite slow motion skills into the forward line instead???

we're even determined to try and create another position for him i mean, how many chances do you need?

there goes our chase out of the forward line  :banghead

perhaps for cracking the shi.ts when he was originally told he was going back to coburg.
some people dont react well to news like that and clubs dont like that.

Well we all know he has slowed down and not had the best year but his effort and proffesionalism last week was top class and as such he should be recalled. You have to set culture in the club where effort is rewarded no matter who you are. The way he encoraged the kids was great and didnt look to me like he was sulking at all. It even looked like he was enjoying his new role. Maybe he can be played as a half forward where he should of been played all along.  Fire away about he is not our future but to me he has been a class player for a long time and had been forced to play a role that was not him.

I'm more annoyed about who he replaced. Schulz has been terrific in the backhalf this year and even on the weekend playing for the Burgers he one of the best afield. He will be part of our future and even if Joel has a blinder int he forwardline I think this is a step back for our development.

All the same it will be interesting to see how he preforms in the forwardline where hopefully his lack of pace is less exposed and his footy smarts, experience, skills and size are assets.

Time will tell
