Unfortunately I was working and missed the final 3q, what happened with Riv and #34?

Don't know what your talking about, for us or them?

thought i heard that White squibbed it and Jared unloaded on him??!!

I did not see Jared have a go at white but yes, white did decide to stand and wait and yes rivs should have given white a mouthful and more, Don't remember seeing any footage, but then at that point I did put my head in my hands and wonder what the bloody hell he was thinking.

I was throwing pillows at the TV at that point, so I missed it as well, but...

JARED FOR CAPTAIN! :D

He had every right to give him a spray. I would have probably punched him, which explains why I don't, and should never, play team sports

No Jaded as a captain it's sometime appropriate to grab a team mate by the throat and threaten to belt the crap out of them if they squib a contest, they need to more scared of the pain you will inflict than what the opposition could do.

Very extreme Jaded...you don't by any chance have red hair do you?

If Jared could stay on the park, I reckon he would be a GREAT option as captain. Might also help keep him in Victoria.

If Riv goes home, I will cry like a 5 year old girl in the corner.

He is a pretty introverted guy as far as I know, so maybe the captaincy is out of the question, but certainly a role in the leadership group is the way to go. I've always liked having a designated leader in each section of the ground. Rivers is, without a doubt, the backline general.

And yes, if he goes home I can see quite a few Melbourne supporters checking themselves into a psych ward soon after. We have to make sure this NEVER happens.

Just by the way, Rivers is not from Adelaide, from SA, but not from the city of Adelaide.

Maybe an introverted off field captain is the way to go!?

If he is prepared to lead by example on the field...

I don't know; who else is there, other than Jonothan Brown? *Puts on really hopeful thinking face*

i watched that incident closely, and it was one of many average jeff white efforts for the afternoon but i didn't see rivers say a word.

Didn't say a thing, should have though...

But I think White knew it.

Awful stuff, if I was DB I would throw Meesen in for him.

He's 6 foot 5 and afraid of Mooney.

Meeson is afraid of his own shadow.

i'd still play him. right now jeff white is in career worst form. his handball, his kicking, his decision making, this notion he has if he gets his hand to the ball in ruck contests he has done his job even though most of them go to the opposition. his game is a dogs breakfast right now.

He sure did!

I thought White was alright. He made a few mistakes that 1 being the biggest but he wasn't the only 1. Jones made some terrible errors. Everytime Carroll got near the ball he made an error. Davey was horrible until the last quarter and Robertson was the worst player on the ground.

I am a White fan, but I have previously written a piece called 'The White is Dead'. I saw the incident and my son had to pacify me in case I destroyed the expensive (for me) LCD monitor... I like what White has contributed over his long career. I like him for things other than his toughness. At the moment I don't like him for his clangers, particularly by hand (which I witnessed in person at Casey Fields). The other annoying idiosyncrasy (feel free to read IDIOTsyncrasy) is White's habit of seeing four options when he has possession without taking any of them... the fifth option is usually the one he does not execute cleanly!!!!! Now, White observers will know what I am talking about. He has been doing this for at least 5 seasons. FREE ADVICE FOR MR WHITE... "Always take the first option, take it quickly and half the time it will work out" ... which is a way higher percentage than you are currently rating!

There were 2 incidents that drew some abuse from Rivers. There was one where Mooney (I think it was him) used White to block Rivers because he wasnt looking. It was bloody awful. Rivers turned and gave it to him.

the 2nd incident was when Hawkins took the screamer in the pocket. Rivers was marking his man as the geelong player was lining up while White was byhimself at the top of the square. He should have being on the line just in case the kick was off. The kick was off, Rivers recognised that fact early and ran back hard but couldnt get into the contest. White never moved. Rivers turned and screamed and pointed at the goal line.

White also didnt contest a Mooney mark when he had best position. But that was at the other end of the ground so I didnt see how Rivers reacted. I know how I did however. Effin ballistic.......

The thought of Jared back to SA makes me curl up and cry...

I'm not joking.

there was another time where white actually ran back with the flight of the ball and tried to take a speccy over a geelong/melbourne 1 on 1 contest (in the geelong forward line). he dropped the mark, and i believe geelong mopped up and kicked a goal. if you are in the back line, you have two options. mark or punch, and you only mark it when you are 100% of it.

you forgot the bit about him taking rivers out during that marking contest.

Why mention it then?
