If he's not the next Captain of Richmond or in the least VC behind Flossy.......

What an absolute beast.

Just turned 23, 2 x Flags plus gave his body in the Prelim in 19.

Rejected huge $$$ at Adelaide and Carlton

Jack is a Richmond man.

For the brief period that *smile* Kilda looked like offering some resistance he was our best player.

I forget that sometimes, feels like he's a veteran.

Heaps of development remaining. Another good game tonight.
Same, I mark him harshly at times. Tracking well. Still needs to close gap between worst and best.

If you need an example of his ability, watch the first goal against St.Kilda. He was on the half back line when we won the ball, and kicked the goal from the forward pocket even though play didn't stop for the whole transition. Gut running rewarded.

His bald numbers lied about him, overall.

He was busier than that. And numbers don't reflect his authority, his intervention in losing contests. Nor Graham's class with the ball.

His numbers. Mmm. They don't measure his infrequent awesome dominance.

Love his development... purely and simply a hard nosed footballer. Don't ever let him go back to SA!

I initially thought he was Edwards with that below the knees pickup. Classy.

And there’s not many around with his ability to spot a long low humming drop punt pass either

Yeah it’s coming together for Fridge.

Starting to believe how good he can be. Not rushed with the ball.

Future leader and the very core of our next midfield.
