Throw out the pizza and beer, and drink a tall glass of JUICE!

Oh....my.....a-god.

I had high hopes for Juice 4 years ago.

Obviously the FD see something I don't

But that is what they are paid for.

Lets hope they are right.

No one was more happy than Juice when the new interchange rule was announced.

With the new rule it is unviable to play Jamar and Spenser at Spenser's current stage of development. No longer can the second lumbering ruckman be the 22nd man, to give 5 minutes of relief a quater for the number 1 ruck.

Juice Newton is one of very few players on our list capable of playing the 'Leigh Brown' back up ruck role.

Jeez Newton sucks though, really makes you understsand why the club was so keen on David Hale last year

He must be a ripping bloke.

Good post Sylvinator. As much as people may not agree with the choice he makes the most sense as an upgrade with immedizte value.

"Richmodn promotes Brad Miller to senior list"

is the byline of that article. Who the hell are Richmodn?

FML

makes you wonder how he hurt his hand....

I can see why they went for Newton, due to his versatility and his experience. BUT i think Michael Evans is very unlucky!!! I think he has been fantastic, very hard at the ball and very slick when he has it

why oh why......?

surely he has been given enough chances?

Realistically, Evans would have a hard time squeezing into the side when other fringe dwellers in Maric and Nev Jetta have had such great preseasons.

It also puts a bit more heat on Stef Martin - perform or we'll swap you with Juice!

We're not bluffing, we'll do it!!

Good reward for Juice. Had a great year in the VFL and work very hard on his deficiencies.

Make the most of it Juice!

Your a big boy now...Start smashen those packs and running straight through blokes.

Just one thing - this is a prmoted rookie position.

He is unlikely to see any game time but he was the most likely of the unlikely.

Especially with Campbell injured.

ooohhhhh dear god........

He is like a stalker ex boyfriend who won't leave you alone

And just like said ex you're only gonna go back to them when desperate, drunk, and when all other semi viable options have left the country.

Thats the mew Tigers, with the mew clubrooms.

Is he ahead of Maric, Jetta or Bennell?

I think he'll still need time @ Casey to play against the seniors.

Given that he was retained on the rookie list in the first place is it that out of the blue that he got the nomination? I'll admit it is a little amusing that the Newton saga continues but heck we aren't losing that much here - the club simply values a player with some experience to fill a gap if required. The younger rookies can still develop in the mean time at Casey and we have the mid-yr nomination up our sleeve.

Versatility - he can play forward, back or ruck equally as bad?

I have seen nothing in 8 years to say that Newton can play AFL. Not one game has he been a valuable contributor. I do not understand this decision.

It is a bit like the Australian Cricket selectors - We need a spinner, so let’s pick a bloke that struggles to take wickets a state level and try and make him a batsman, rather than picking a decent batsman or bowler.

If Newton is in the side as a second ruck, we will get smashed in two positions rather than one.

Campbell injury is surely worse than they are saying.

Last, last chance Juice. Make it count.

The mind boggles !!!
