I reckon "Jonny" will be ok. I like the look of him in respect of the fact he seems to be able to run onto the ball pretty well and looks like he's gonna set something up with it. Just seems like he's gonna develop into a classic 6ft winger somehow. Just a pup too.
I see him the same way. Not concerned at all. Looks like a player to me. This year and next will be about a few opportunities and body development.
 
Patience! Patience! JON will be fine... He just looked like a young player adjusting to the tempo of Senior League football:What else would you expect in game 2 from a 19 year old?? ::) Sure he missed a few targets but you could tell just by the way he moved and made position he has talent. How cool will it be with Richie, JON and Lids running through the centre and drilling it in from half forward? Our next FF should be a century goal kicker. Quick bring back Roachy!
 
I still think JON needs time in the magoos. The couple of times I have seen him in the magoos he hasnt been getting alot of the ball, and maybe he needs to get confidence up at that level before embarking on the big league. A couple of games here or there cant hurt his progress however.

Seems a likely type but I would think too early to tell.

He is only 18 :)
 
Commentatotrs are starting to talk about the pac of the Richmnond side. JON will be a plank in that.

I so much want our fast guys in Tambling and Jon to play like Aaron Davey, KRak can't because he hasn't got the pace - different player type, but Richard and Jon can they have the speed - just tneed the intensity of Davey.

I thought his kicking against werribee was pretty poor, the first few kicks he had he pulled a Tiva.

sorry, had to highlight this :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi :hihi

i haven't seen much of JON because i don't see the coburg games but i was so surprised at how lanky he is. if he fills out properly and keeps his pace he will trouble a lot of opposition teams
