If we can get him in the rookie draft then all good.

I suspect if someone bids on him at the National Draft though, then we'll let them have him.

He looks a bit like his old man (minus the long curly locks)

This kid looks the part has good pedigree and from all reports has what it takes, looks strong through the legs also. Do what we need to to get him id say. He probably doesn't want to play for anyone else and that means a lot in my book

I love the idea of having three sons of guns on our list.

Surely this one is worth a shot, given the way the other two are going about their business.

We need size,speed, brilliance and mongrel. If he has these qualities and is better than other options go for it. If not no thanks. Heritage should have nought to do with it. Collingwood ended up with a hell of a job tipping out Clokes and Shaws

Needs a mullet, Loved his dad, from memory, his old man took a while to come on. Worth a punt based on love to have his name along side viney and strech

the catters did ok from F/S's a few years back.

we also need big inside bulldozers to help extract & get the ball rolling our way. big legs maybe slow, but they help inside to stand you ground & feed it out.

What we need is a 10cm taller Viney with better disposal.

Had 22 disposals on the weekend so its good to see he is now staring to win the footy. Think in his past 3 or 4 weeks he has averaged something like 21 disposals a game.

have seen a lot of different figures for his height/weight, some quite old

from a list published by afl 6 days ago

Jake Lovett
Dandenong Stingrays - VIC C
9.1.1997
Height: 182cm
Weight: 81kg

Oh you mean Ollie Wines?

The more kids we can get through the door who love the club, are sick of seeing peehearted efforts from our current list and want to move us back up the ladder, the better.

All the better if we get him for a packet of chips.

Oh you mean Ollie Wines?

Wines is 5cm taller with about the same level of disposal.

Try again.

Angus Brayshaw?

Howe good is that

A good hanger never hurt. Yesterdays Demons game certainly did no harm to the plan of drafting from the Dandy Stringrays.

My understanding was once a father son gets through the main draft you can nominate them as your last rookie pick. In a weak draft and a year where we are planning to probably have a few rookie picks I think that could be the right result for Jake from what I've heard about his draft chances.

Here's video footage of the hanger.

Wow what a grab

Definitely want him now, ha no idea he could do anything like that

So you want him based on that one hanger or his footballing ability because i have never seen him play and im guessing you have?

I want him because he wont cost us much and that hanger shows he possess a skill that the vast majority of inside mids do not have.
