Don't agree with that. Punxsutawney Phil has it in one - just attack the pill like Petrie and the rest of it will be taken care of. Petrie - on one leg - was terrific in the last term. Would love him at Punt Road.AstuteTiger said:If he was getting the frees like petrie was good ol jack would not be arguing one bit, petrie gets the rub of the green whilst jack gets a dud deal from the umps, enough said....

i agree jack cost us dearly in the first half , he should of got on his bike after the he lost the first test of strenght with thompson , jack played into norths hands by wrestling instead of running hard , some how we managed to screw up another winnable gameJukes Extended said:Jack was horrible in the first half,
I don't understand why he wanted the ball in a one-on-one contest when Thompson was beating him every single time.
Glad the coaches got stuck into him at half time and got him to lead for the footy.
Needs to stop sooking and playing for free kicks....pull your head in Jack.

hopper said:Getting pretty sick of Jack's petulance, arguing, pleading for frees and then attempting the "hail mary" pass/kick in a contest because the previous contests didn't go his way. Just as many on here have been condemning Judd for his repeated dodgy tactics, Jack is gradually labelling himself that comp's most selfish and sooky player.
I think he needs a hard line. If I was Dimma, I'd tell him that next week he'll be subbed off the second he argues with the umpire. He's getting them off-side and I don't think it's helping others in the team get a decent run from the green little gnomes either. Time Jack shut his trap for the team and just got a kick.

Harry said:was crucified by the umps. was held the entire game.
rosy23 said:He still got touches in the other 3 quarters though. If being held the entire game rendered him ineffective I wonder why we didn't change his role and try to utilise him in a different way. It looked like he was still our forward focus.
tigs2010 said:I don't think Harry meant he was held as in Thompson did a good job on him. More that Thompson was breaking the rules and getting away with it.

Would make an effective decoy, but no much of a set shot IIRC.The Shrike said:I would actually play Kel Moore up forward if Griff is fit next week. Kel is actually a natural leader at the ball when forward and has, as a general rule, the defensive poise to make him worth trying up there.
