Neville Jetta Elevated

[Scipio 5,868]

Jetta replaces Trengove on senior list

Good on him. Looks like he's playing some good footy at the moment so hopefully he can take it up into the firsts if he gets a game.

Best of luck to him with reviving his career.

[Guest]

Definitely his last chance. Good luck to him, hope he adds something

[P-man 13,277]

Rapt for him. Over to Roosy to see what he can craft.

Added question - when a rookie is elevated, does their pay arrangement change at all?

I believe rookies are on about $60K a year, anyone know if that's true?

[Deestroy All 14,262]

Good kid. Hope it finally clicks for him.

[Nasher 33,166]

Good kid. Hope it finally clicks for him.

Agreed. Has always been a player I've wanted to make it because of the way he goes about it.

[Machsy 2,858]

Good to see.

Hopefully he goes straight in for Terlich.

Couldn't have said it better!

I think they get a pay bump. That said Jetta might be on more than the rookie minimum anyway so it might be different in this situation.

Considering Trengove and Clark's spots are open for the entire year and Hunt and King are a long way from senior selection there is no harm in upgrading Jetta (and Georgiou already) so that they at least are on level footing with everyone.

That said it was a quick elevation so I would imagine Jetta is every chance to play on Sunday. We will find out soon

It's a Thursday-afternoon-just-before-the-squad's-named elevation.

is that a you're-trying-to-tell-us-something comment?

[Whispering_Jack 28,089]

I've said elsewhere that I believe he's earned the elevation. It will be interesting if he gets a game, how he will react on the field given that until the Jack Trengove announcement, his mindset would have been that it was highly unlikely he would get a chance until mid season.

I wish him luck and a turn around of fortunes if he plays this week (or next). It's a great story for Nev.

good luck to nev jetta i hope he gets a chance to play

[Dee Fan 3,247]

Not surprised that he was elevated, they wouldn't have kept him if they didn't see something, but he needs to do something special to warrant the elevation.

He's been given the chance and has played many games at Casey before without his form screaming "pick me".

Seems a great guy and hopefully he'll fire but I just can't see what's changed

Perhaps the change of coach makes a significant difference. Undoubtedly players respond differently to different coaches - perhaps Jetta responds better to Roos than his predecessors.

I'm pretty sure they get match payments as well

That may be so, but I don't think endeavour is, or has ever been an issue, its been a lack of anything that would give him an edge.

Don't get me wrong, I love the guy but I have doubts. Then again I had doubts about Pederson and he played his best for the club last week, by far, and may turn out to be a handy player.

A Roos type player with a Viney-eske will for the contest, Swan like hard two way running and Strauss like laser precision kicking.

[Ted Lasso 17,109]

reckon he comes in for Terlich?

[RalphiusMaximus 5,993]

Great news for Nev. I really hope he kills it this year and cements a spot on the list once and for all.

[Bang Bang Bang 5,553]

My memory is a little hazy but I recall he played a pretty good game against the Western Bulldogs in Round 24 last year, playing as a defender.

Given his appetite for tackling, and reasonable foot skills, I think he should take Terlich's spot a.s.a.p.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Thanks, Luke Darcy.

[dazzledavey36 49,287]

Got a soft spot for Nev. Definitely reminds me of wrecker Whelan in his attack and his scrap on the contest.

Btw saw a recent photo of Wheels. Been in a mighty fine paddock lol
