jumbo returns

I'm tipping that if Hogan has the ball and 3 Collingwood players come at him, the cleaning crew will be wiping their remains off the interchange bench.

I concur with your strategies except for the rassling!! Good idea to ask him to unpack his performance. Whew! First day back at work after holidays and this is the first chance I've had to jump on my favourite forum!

Might be ridiculous, but this player is too good for Casey. I don't know what to say anymore, but I hope he comes good. Remember, not six months ago, this player's signature was a litmus test for this Club.

Hey! Wasn't Roos maligned by all the footy pundits and Demetriou at the time for 'playing ugly' with the Swans? Idgaf how we win as long as we effen win!!

I don't think Casey will help him. He's too smart for that comp and will get 35 touches without raising a sweat. I really want to see the coach make him accountable in the ones.

Boxing will not increase his physicality.....it would make his quick hands, quicker. The pundits of the sweet science will tell you that if you lose your temper, you're dead in the water! Besides, didn't Beamer try that with him? Up at the Koroit or somewhere like that? That worked...... Crickets......

You're probably right, but our lack of height atm means that he'll get a gig over 180cm players. I think that Roos will not drop him because he wants to coach Jack....

I don't know what to say....he has no physical presence, but he can really cause some damage. There are worse players on our list.

I think he should be left alone. Let JW work out out what the coach wants him to do and how to play. He will never be a crash bash player.

Ouch! Back to work tomorrow and now I'm doubly depressed...

They'll flash a million at him in a heartbeat.

Steve Wells.

Correct. Work out a team's ball movement and then choke, choke, choke. Geelong set up so well against Hawthorn's HBF left footers. Disciplined, professional.

We need to develop a leader on EVERY line.....that's what the top teams have.

Ditto.

What was Clarkson thinking? Hawkins monstered him!

Throw the war chest at Hawkins??? Btw...Leigh Matthews commentary.....wtf?

Yewwww!! Scary.

Yeah, Jack needs to stand up, no doubt about that.

True.

Watching Hawks v Geelong... Big crowd, Easter Monday, success.... Sigh.

I don't think PR will drop him. He's become a real project for Roos, as has the entire club. I hope he gets to the core and unlocks the full potential of this prodigious talent.

I would like Salem in for Jetta.

In the 60s and 70s, the resting ruckman was always in the back pocket.....

Good question - dunno. The whole team may have been flat. Frustrating loss.
