Anyone who doesn't, will look foolish. He's a legend.

Agree. Back him to the cows come home
But if he has another poor game he needs to be dropped.

I guess 'like-ability' is really a subjective thing in the eye of the beholder so we can all agree to disagree on that.

In terms of his status as a player I guess it depends on definition. I see him as a second tier player, ie if 'great' is the best of the best eg Dustin, Royce Hart then Jack is on the next rung.

I think your tiers need some serious defining , second tier players don’t win ONE Coleman, let alone 3 and snag 5 in a GF , he’s a *smile* good player , if that does nt sit well with you, get over yourself

he also re-wrote the book on how to celebrate a grand Final win

Two players I shed a tear for when they retired - Knights and Richo.

The third will be for Martin.

I was sobbing inconsolably when Liam Baker had to go back to W.A for 1 week!

But I know what you mean

Its sad to see him in this form.
He looks even slower.
The pack marking has disappeared.

The break in the season seems to have affected our team more that most others and despite their fitness their collective mindsets are not in it right now. Work for our Mindfulness coach!

Patience running out for Jack. Needs to do more. I would bring Chol in this week to provide an extra option up forward and relegate Jack to 3rd marking forward.

Bingo.
We need to go BIG.
Im over the smurf brigade, the aren't doing anything anyway.
Balta on the wing
Dow in the guts
Chol next to lynch
Naish on that other wing
And Zip @ CHB...

Actually thought he was much better. Easily could’ve had three or four. Terrible supply as well.

 

[MD Jazz]

The kick off the ground to setup a goal was vintage jack. But he is almost incapable of taking a contested mark now.

The whole side is off, skills are off, desire appears off. Will take something special to get the group back on track.

LOL@Chol's half-arsed efforts to compete and chase. He's doing well in VFL 14 or 16 a side games that also lack state league muscle. Watch Lynch's output fall when sides triple team him because Jack isn't there as a viable alternative and Mabior LOL is doing his best Vickery impersonation.

Yeh agree Choi ain’t the answer. Need to stay with jack and hope we can turn it around. Our system and delivery going forward ain’t helping.

 

[BillyJean17]

From the weirdly aggressive tone in your post you've clearly missed that I'm saying he is just behind the best of the best, on the next rung below the likes of Dustin and Royce Hart.

Hardly an insult.

Hmm nice back pedal as second tier in generic sense doesn’t generally refer to a peg below the greatest of all time , whatever , in any case he looks close to the end of his career to me

the mental side of things is not quite there at the moment

I would hope so as she is sorely needed right now

i touched on this in another thread about Mindfulness having its detractors - like most modern takes on Eastern meditation practices and what the West turns it into. I am sure Emma Murray knows what she's doing, but what these practices can do to the individual is random.

yeah. It's the dumbing down and commodification of much broader philosophies. It's not totally useless, but almost.

It's like 23 year old middle-class whites calling themselves "yogis".

being present and fully aware when you are the best and winning flags is pretty easy.

Its a nice place to dwell.

But when you and your team-mates and coaches are going *smile*,

its much, much harder to just be with it.
