He’s one of the best kicks in the league and has been for years. He’s just inconsistent and doesn’t get enough of it to display those kicking skills and vision regularly. He kicked 45 goals from the wing back in 2012 while at the Swans though, so can be very damaging. 

Heres another one for the hindsight file. He could’ve been ours!

    Ok, clearly you don't watch football so have a look at this and come back to me. If you can find the same for Jayden Hunt I would love to see it. West Coast clearly love Jetta kicking in because he is a horrible kick.

     

    It is funny you put up a highlights package where the commentator says Lewis Jetta, a much better kick. Implying his last few were horrible.

    Happy for you to name which player I would lose on.

    Hunt and Frost both have AFL standard skills with pace wich is unusual. The thing that lets them both down is decision making.

    Neither Frost nor Hunt have agility or vision, they are straight line quick but fumble easily and prone to long bomb the ball under panic. Frost particulary is frightening to watch with ball in hand. IMO both should be depth and rarely sighted beyond Casey. 

    Having said that, Hunt is showing some promise as a born again forward.

    Once May, Lever, Hannan and the new and improved Jeffy (won't hold my breath) come back those two will hopefully be at Casey.

    I suspect they might be open for trade at end of year.

    Hunt played all his junior football as a forward. His uncle player for Melbourne. He kicked 3 goals as a forward last week and looked back to his best. Why someone would wish him the worst is beyond me.

    Comprehend what I wrote and you'll see I mentioned him improving as a forward.

    No one has wished him the worst. It's an opinion of ability, thats all. Don't take it personally

    Hoping a player with electric place, which we are screaming for, is wishing the worst for them.

    Why start a thread if you are going to misrepresent and argue with everyone who disagrees with your view? It's just boring. See ya

    Misrepresent? You posted a clip of Lewis Jetta with skills.

    We can all do that.

    FMD you are a rare idiot. I did not post the clip of Jetta, I didn't even quote it. 

    Apology accepted.

    I do sincerely apologise.

    As soon as I posted I looked to make sure it was the same poster. Obviously not.

    I even embrace the term rare idiot.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
