picket fence 18,184 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 No other comment needed, BBB Cooked, Petty, pathetic forward! Premiership window closed, play him for rest of the year, lets see what he's got! 2 4 Quote
kallangurdemon 551 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 That selection would be surely the definition of desperation .He has shown absolutely nothing to date and doesn't even deserve consideration . 15 1 Quote
DeeSpencer 26,675 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 Haha good god no, the kid would be crushed, physically but mostly mentally. He seems to be slowly turning the corner a little at Casey, that’s where he needs to stay. 20 1 1 Quote

daisycutter 30,021 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 i'd rather try tomlinson at full forward. at least he can take a mark it's desperate times so why not 3 Quote
SPC 3,596 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 Lack of effort and competitiveness forward of the ball is our issue, he addresses neither 2 1 Quote
Jibroni 5,057 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 Would be feeding him to the Wolves if we played him now, plus JVR and Fullarton can come into the side. If we out of contention with 5 Rounds to go, then I would give him a go. 4 1 Quote
kallangurdemon 551 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 Yes I have watched him closely .He played a reasonable first quarter yesterday and that was it .Not even taking a grab which was his one strong area .Maybe he will develop but I'm not in the least bit confident .What I am confident of is that he is not remotely at present up tp AFL standard . 7 minutes ago, picket fence said: Have u watched his last 3 weeks?? 4 Quote
dazzledavey36 56,334 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 (edited) No. He plays one good quarter every game. Sometimes it's not even a quarter, more so 15-20 minutes maybe. Edited May 19, 2024 by dazzledavey36 3 1 Quote
Demonsterative 3,021 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 Give Fullerton a go first. He may not be a world beater, but he is athletic and will give a contest. Jeffo ain’t there yet. 3 Quote

Demon Jack 7,194 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 I'd consider giving Sestan a run in the seniors before Jefferson. Has made some good strides this year. 9 Quote
Maldonboy38 6,435 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 He is developing well, gets to all the right places and presents in the air well. But he is another season away from being AFL ready and will be less effective than Petty or BBB. 2 Quote
Left Foot Snap 2,609 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 (edited) Is this the prompt to call him Juice Jefferson, after your previous full forward love child? Edited May 19, 2024 by Left Foot Snap Spelling 1 3 Quote
spirit of norm smith 16,679 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 No. Bad call. Jefferson needs another year at Casey. He’s only 19 and has shown little do far. Don’t get crazy !!! 5 1 Quote
layzie 34,528 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 It's not. The kid is not close to ready. 4 1 Quote
Earl Hood 6,167 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 There are forward issues but it’s the midfield performance that’s killing us. We are missing Gus big time. Oliver is a shadow of his former self, we are a 30 plus possession midfielder short. 4 1 Quote
Hellaintabadplacetobe 4,335 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 JVR straight back in for BBB. Let the kid continue to show progression like the past few weeks at Casey 1 Quote
MurDoc516 1,529 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 What has our list managers done that's left us in a situation where we our best key forward is 187cm. JVR has shown some promise but he is as fustrating as Petty at times. Petty was a premiership defender and we throw him forward because we can't trade/draft any one [censored] decent. 1 1 Quote

Premiership window closed, play him for rest of the year, lets see what he's got! He's just starting to find his feet at Casey Picket. Showed some very positive signs early on Sat but then dropped away again. Fullarton should've played ahead of Brown to see what he can offer and as a chop out for Max (not Petty!). Petty's efforts / energy would have been better served playing more time forward and as an outlet mark / interceptor down the lline tonight. 2 1 1 Quote

Has made some good strides this year. Agree but again he is presently struggling to play out 4 quarters at a high level for Casey. He also seems to lack the white line manic attack at the ball to take the next step. Might find it as the year goes on but will need to imv if he's to get the call up. Always looks better playing inside 50. Pretty good by foot as well. Is he a possibility to replace Billings? Kicked four goals yesterday but very quiet after half time.

Young Angus 873 Posted May 19, 2024 Posted May 19, 2024 Get him out there, love that kid, he will just turn into a monster and be better than Harley Reid with proper game time. 1 1 Quote
