Matthew Jefferson watch...

[Young Angus 806]

Has anyone laid eyes on Jeffo in training or anywhere lately?  Just heard Richo on the radio yesterday talking about everyone else but didn't mention Jeffo once...anyone care to venture a guess as to why?

I'm constantly on Jeffo watch but have seen nothing recently.

[adonski 12,552]

Been in mush brain protocols for the last week or so, so not much to watch

On another note, if Jeffo kicks 10 during a Casey match sim but no one is there to see it, did it really happen?

[Fritta and Turner 4,579]

Funny you should say that.  At training today I thought Jeffo finally looked like he belonged, and trained like it.

If a Jeffo falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does he make a sound?

Ahhh I didn't know that, my bad, glad he's training and glad he's looking the goods.  Just thought it was odd Richo didn't mention him at all, made me a bit sad actually I wound the clip back and forth a couple of times thinking I'd missed him talk about Jeffo but no, just didn't get a mention.

Glad to hear he's training again!

Can you reconfirm that he trained today Fritta? I thought he was on concussion protocols till at least Friday!

Fritta trained in a yellow vest.

Good pick-up, @Young Angus. That does seem rather telling, given who he did mention, and how he mentioned them. Hopefully, though, this was just because of how Richardson was led by the questions (the asker of which probably wouldn't know a Jefferson from an airplane).

Or a Starship.

I think Jeffo would be in the mix for a key forward spot. I’d say it would go:

1. JVR

2. Turner

3. Johnson

4. Jefferson

I think Johnson might be ahead mainly because he’s more physically developed and can probably second ruck,  allowing JVR to play forward 100%

He also didn't mention McAdam when he was trying to spruik our forward line options.

He did mention McAdam quiet extensively & said he's doing everything right & they just need to make sure he stays fit & healthy.

Hope so...can't wait to see Jeffo debut at top level and kick his first after driving a knee into Darcy Moore's adams apple during a footy act marking contest.

My bad. Read the wrong paragraph.

Thanks for clarifying.

Jefferson has reached what I would call the "handy" class. He has definitely matured physically. He no longer looks lethargic; he looks involved and confident. He has the advantage of being taller than a few of his key forward competitors. If he grabs a couple of contested marks and kicks 2 or 3 goals in a practice game, I expect he becomes a viable option earlier than many think.

Agree 

Johnson will not be a huge possession earner but his touches marks and handballs will be very good for the team and his other forwards.

He will also take the premier opposition defender most likely that means JVR is not quite under as much pressure with Turner ( or Jeffo) the third banana. Happy days for Fritta and the others will also be able to be much more positive as forwards.

Plenty of time yet for McAdam he hasn’t had any time with no pre Xmas to stand him in good stead. Needs an intense few weeks now and practice games to be any chance for the early rounds.
