Jack Grimes

Featured Replies

You expect too much. There are MANY first round draft picks who aren't even in the system anymore.

There are many top round picks who are achieving more. There are many lower draft picks achieving more. He has an occasional outstanding game but is overall too error prone and agree he barely makes the team. To see your captain make that many crucial errors has to have an impact on morale. He needs to be relieved of the captaincy. N Jones has taken the extra responsibility well, added even more dimensions to his game. If N Jones started to regularly play shockers, you can bet a lot more would be said.

 

So was Cale Morton and much higher. Jack was outside the top 10 and after 84 games, draft selection should have almost no bearing.

For some people, draft selection will always have a bearing on a players performance.

In terms of pick 14's since the draft began I'd bet Grimes would be considered a success in terms of games played.

Can someone give one good reason why he was ever made captain of the MFC?

It wasn't for being able to hit 2 of our players 20m away and 20m in the clear that's for sure.


Just how the [censored] did he miss that?

Which week?

If he could learn to kick he would be dangerous.

 

All I'm going to say, is captains don't kick the ball out on the full under no physical pressure when the games on the line.

And the umpires can die of gynoreah wnd rot in hell.

After five minutes of thought I am no wiser.

No!

It was a bad mistake he made late in the game today but no poorer than the Jones decision to play on (take the "advantage") from the free kick a few minutes earlier. Both cost us dearly today.

You forgive him if it was an isolated event but he is a serial offender. Jones has credits in the bank.


I repeat Frank is an average footballer with a big heart.

But he is not going to win us crunch games in the future.

Always been over rated because he does have courage.

Close to the mark there wyl

Poor skills will never ever win you a game

But poor skills will sure as hell cost you victory .

Has been doing it for years. So much so that when he got the ball, I said in my head "watch this go out on the full."


An absolute coach killer is grimes

He's ordinary. And a noted out on the full kicker. Decent but not outstanding defensively and poor with the ball. He's only good enough to get a game in a bottom 8 side.

But at the same time we've got lots of other positions to worry about. Not much point pinning all our problems on Grimes. Still have to draft some quality kicks.

He has guts, works as hard as anyone but he is let down in fundamental football skills

crossroads for grimes imo, has the ability but if he doesn't improve his skills he won't be part of our future

Looked like he didn't hear the whistle actually, so hardly worth comparing to a crucial kick straight out on the full when there were open targets.
