Jack Ross

Should’ve been down at Frankston today

Being played out of position he’s an inside mid any chance he gets a game there?

 

[Tigers2011]

Got badly exposed for speed on the wing and even when he had the ball, he didn’t use it well enough or quickly enough or both. Same reason Caddy can no longer play wing.

If he isn’t played as a contested ball midfielder, then don’t play him. It’s that simple. Not sure he’s up to it now, which is so disappointing given after his debut game, I thought he was the young inside mid we needed.

I think Ross should be trained as a shut down player. Not in the midfield, in the back pocket. Because that's the talent level I think I've seen. I want him banging heads with no neat skills.

Dimma thinks he has to get the ball in his hands to improve his use and to get the confidence to accumulate over a game. To learn to get more and more ball. And eventually to use more conservatively and within his range. For now he has a licence. To get the ball and use it long. This is easier use than at the coalface, use that Jack Ross IMO, and apparently in Dimma's, is not yet able to execute.

Ross is getting a chance. And he is getting ball. We've got a lot of blokes who can't do that.

I've been surprised at the trust Ross has won and the way in which he's improved. Interesting player atm.

He's an is and under type get ball dish it out Mark Coughlan Mark McGough style. Should be played like that or not at all.

I’d rather try him there instead of Graham

It seems so obvious. Move Lambert to a wing. It’s a gut runner position.

If he was an inside mid he would be played there. What other team would he get a game for?

That’s embarrassing to mention him as being like coughlan

 

[Bunnerz]

Not up to RFC standard unfortunately.

 

[tigersnake]

he stuffs up anything remotely tricky, and especially when the heat is on. Was worth a go, but not up to it.

If I hear this one more time I will fair dinkum spew up.

Same type of player. Coughlan has a few more games under his belt

Na i agree played out of position. Blind freddy can see he is an inside mid.

Coughlan was a borderline star cruelled by Injury. Ross is a hell of a long way from that.

a) a poor to middling inside mid, not as good as milesy and we know how that went, B) you need more strings to your bow if you aren't that good at your one alleged trick.

 

[Carter]

Don’t think he’s good enough, but ironically he’s the type of mid we need next year

 

[spook]

Mr B's right, Will Martyn's better. So's RCD.

put a 28yo triple premiership matchwinning, ice-veined star out in the carpark,

and put a slow, poor decision maker, poor user, panicky bloke

in the engine room?

to paraphrase Marsellus Wallace,

'right now, thats pretty *smile* ing far from obvious'

I will stick with what I have written. We need gut runners on the wing. Other clubs have wingman that can get it 20 plus times a game. Steele Sidebottom preliminary final 2018 ring a bell?

We need size around the ball who can get clearances and they need to give it to smart blokes who can use it. Lambert fits that mould better than anyone now that he doesn’t have to cover Dusty off.

call me Freddy,

saddle up the Labrador.

and I'll take a close look
