I'm thinking the police need to be called in to disarm the person who is holding a gun to the heads of the JW haters and forcing them to come on to this thread to comment.

Amusing that their own posts are bumping it up to the top of the page.

 

In case anyone forgot, he's playing right now...

    I wish he was still on the list. I like the narrative around these things, even though I can see why he was traded and those with Aspergers here don’t get the human bits to this stuff.

    That said, I love Bailey Fritsch.

    He means, some humans with asparagus don't get to bite it. But he loves banana fritters.

    Because people who are autistic aren't human ...

    Normative BS, right up there with "gays aren't real men" etc. etc.

     

     

    Would currently be playing at Casey.

    Obscure but not bad


    Hopefully he played a terrible game.

    I flicked over at half time for a quick look at the Power vs Lions game. Watts had two contests I saw. 

    First was a smaller player bodied him off a high ball, Jack gives a half attempt and the ball bounces to him. He sends off a lazy handball toward goal to a player in the clear that falls short of his target by metres. Lions rebound the ball.

    A minute or so later he is in a high ball one on one and Harris-Andrews outmarks him easily and rebounds.

    Both reminded me why we made the decision to let him go.

    Bayley Fritsch will give us far more going forward

    Jack is a top bloke, but he was never going to take the next step for us

    We were hoping that he would be our johnathon brown!

    Was never going to happen!

    A Pavlich would have been nice

    I wonder if Jack had found a watering hole of choice in Adelaide yet?

    He may want to steer clear of the Ramsgate. It could get a bit too willing for him; especially if Tex turns up after a bad loss.

    With a relative diagnosed with Aspergers I don't think you know what it is.

    Going by the evidence on BigFooty (such as it is) Port fans were not happy with his efforts today, especially that last quarter. Seemingly sections of their crowd were giving it to him in the last when he missed a gimme from 35 out and turned over a simple handpass in Ports inside 50. 

    Jack's Supercoach scores have been 97, 44 and 67. The fact that the Power have a very easy draw over the coming weeks may be the only thing saving him from being dropped.

    Jack is burning up the ground - after his bog performance last game and his strong contested football, how we gave up such a talent is beyond me????

    Glass houses.

    We're hardly setting the football world on fire ourselves.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
