Jesse White

Not getting a game behind Mumford, Goodes, Pyke, Roberts Thomson ...

so maybe a good get for Melbourne as a free agent in PSD.

Latest write up on Swans website:

With Seaby injured, Jesse White stood up as the Swans Reserves number one ruck option. Not only did White control the ruck across the ground, but he had a major impact when he drifted forward, finishing with six goals - the bulk of which came from open play. Kicked 6 goals for swannies reserves. Big tough and agile.

Thoughts?

 

Never liked him. To me he looks a bit like sellar. I don't mean to be offensive but he seems to be big and dumb. Few swannies mates are very happy to not see him playing for them at the moment.

 

Every year he gets bought up, but he is no good. And don't read into the performance of any of the Swans players in the reserves...that league is woefully bad.

EDIT: just remembered they now play in the new NEAFL, which is nowhere near as bad as the old ACT league they used to play in. Always remember hearing about some no-name Swan racking up 50 touches or kicking 10 in that league.

lol

We had a Jesse White thread last year too, you know, when he was good enough to be in the 25 for the Swans.

Where is he this year?

Seriously, where is that guy?

Is he on holidays?


lol...again.

Found the thread from 2011 - http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?/topic/28328-jesse-white/page__hl__white

And 2010! (with a bit of 2011) - http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?/topic/23203-the-jesse-white-thread/

I was in incredibly good form in that second thread.

Ironically, I was initially fawning over White, but then 'Pow! Right in the kisser!' did some good things.

I would send Petterd+Bate up there for him.

He would be looking for more opportunity.

White is a hack, there is a reason that an average ruckmen/forward in mumford plays before him.

I know you would, you started one of those threads I listed...

AND BATE IS AN UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENT AND CANNOT BE TRADED.

(I sang that, so it isn't yelling, it is just singing with a low voice because I want it to register.)

(I sang that too...)

Is this serious? Mumford is a very good ruckman, maybe not a great forward but definitely one of the best ruckmen in the comp.

All over him like a rash you were. Trip down memory lane there, interestingly there's two guys in each of those threads who remind me of Jose.

He showed a lot of promise back in 2010. He was looking to be the next big thing. We had no tall forwards and a lot of us wanted to make a play for him.

We would be able to pick him up cheap now. But i don't want him now.

If he is only a good ruckmen and a poor forward, does that make him a great player? Cox can do both well, he is a great player. Mumford is a good ruckmen, i think we would be stretching to say he is amongst the leagues best.

  • 2 months later...

I don't rate the guy, but he has asked to be traded from the Swans. Might be a better bet than Dawes.

Article.

Maybe an indication that the Swans have secured Tippett.

And if that domino falls, Lions will go for Moloney.

Certainly changes a few things. Pies won't now have upper hand.

Don't you love the circus

I may be repeating myself about White, can't remember but to me he lacks awareness, a bit of a poor mans Kosi and that can't be good.

Keep in mind we're After a 2nd forward


White is big and strong, and we need another tall forward to create contests. White at a trade pick 65+ or one of those swap Petterd to Swans for White and their pick 63 ish.

Every year he gets bought up, but he is no good. And don't read into the performance of any of the Swans players in the reserves...that league is woefully bad.

Makes their performance this year all the more remarkable.

 

This is the order of KPF I'd like us to target and what I'd be willing to give up for each of them.

1. Chris Dawes (Collingwood) trade for Pick 20

2. Scott Gumbleton (Essendon) trade for Jordan Gysberts

3. Mitch Brown (Geelong) trade for Jordan Gysberts

4. Jesse White (Sydney) trade for 4th round draft pick.

5. Khan Haretuku (Frankston) Pick 3 in PSD.

6. Mason Shaw (South Fremantle) take a punt at Pick 4 in National Draft.

7. Cameron Pedersen (North Melbourne) trade for 4th round draft pick.

So White comes in at about half way for me. Certainly wouldn't be against it if we luck out with Dawes and Gumbleton.

Edit: Added Brown.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
