Question - a lot of raps about Jai early on. Why did he drop through to the Rookie Draft?

Looking at the Herald Sun article posted above, I'm guessing it's because of his apparent "inconsistency", "lack of urgency", and the fact that he "wasn't up to standard".

Hopefully he has fixed these issues. The highlights video looks promising.

Looking at the highlights, he looks like he's got a decent goal kicking style, but seems to make a few skill errors when setting up the play.

He's a project player who will hopefully come good in a few years.

This is straight out of the "How to pi$$ billy2803 off in one sentence" book.

Looks like he's got a decent goal kicking style, but seems to make a few skil errors...blah, blah, blah. It was 50 seconds of footage FFS. He was picked up in the rookie draft FFS. WHAT MORE DO YOU EXPECT???

I think i heard as was said he showed glimpses of abiility but wasnt consistent enough,

Also think i read that he came on late in the season for Geelong? hence not many recruiters saw a heap of him to make up their minds. or enough quality in him.

Im liking the connections which have been made with the new coaches and some recruits, Sheehan, Couch, Magners all on recommendations as late picks, also Tuck being recommended as well

A big boy - looks like a "wait and see" type to me.

I am sure that the lack of urgency etc issues have been assessed and hopefully addressed or he wouldn't have been picked.

Stoked with getting Sheahan, genuinely thought he wouldn't make it beyond the PSD to pick 6 in the rookie draft. Surprised to see the Doggies selected Roberts over Sheahan but couldn't be happier with their decision.

Serious bargain as far as I'm concerned and a highly talented 18 year old KPF is a perfect fit for the rookie list (as they need time to develop).

The word choice has annoyed me more than the accusation...

It is 'pea' heart.

As that would be the size of the muscle.

maybe it was meant as an amalgam of pea-heart and p155-weak (as in pee) :unsure:

either way though it was a bit of a heart-less commnt

    HEAVENS ABOVE by Molly Melbourne

    Who said the football gods and scoreboard attendants at the MCG don’t have a sense of humour? The gods spent a whole week teasing Demon and Bomber fans alike about Saturday night’s game. About how the entire match would be dominated by the hulking, brooding figures of 205cm Sam Draper and his 2IC Peter Wright lapping it up in the absence of Melbourne skipper and the club's No.1, No 2, No 3 and No 4 ruckman Max Gawn in the wake of that ankle injury. They painted pictures of Simon Goodwin ne

    PREGAME: Rd 19 vs Fremantle

    The Dees head on the road for the sixth time this season to play for the second time on the holy site of their drought breaking Premiership glory as they take on the Dockers. Who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The injured Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen make up the Top 5. Your votes for the loss against the Kangaroos. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    It’s game day and the Demons face a massive test which may determine whether they have what it takes to play finals this season. The task has been made all the more difficult without their Premiership Captain Max Gawn.

    GIANT HEADACHE by Whispering Jack

    The crack in the captain’s ankle might be very small but the repercussions of the injury are enormous. The aftershock of the news that Max Gawn will sit on the sidelines for the next two or three weeks has provided Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin with a giant headache, not unlike the one he faced after the Kings Birthday when another Demon superstar Christian Petracca suffered his season-ending injury. That headache is magnified by the fact that Goodwin is facing a month of tough encounters a

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?
