Jack showed glimpses yesterday's trial game against the Hawks.
Cuningham was the revelation and Walshy confirmed his status as possibly the best No 1 ever.
SPS is bonafide mid and LOB has stepped up and runs all day.
It would be interesting who one would select in the starting 18 Fasolo or Cunners as they both bring something different to the team. Cunners' speed is a vital ingredient for a pressure forward, and any elusive player with the ball.
People at the game told me they thought Jack looked better than Kennedy. Kennedy didn't get the ball that much.
Jack didn't see much ball in the first half, but did some really good things in the 2nd half.
The 2 lads who I know at the game were like TC posters with Jack: fan and the other not so much, and needs more proof.
I don't care who makes the best 22. May the best man win, but I think that players ranked 19- 25 are going to have to prove they deserve a spot in the 22.
Selection will be based on form at the time, not which pick they were drafted or how many preseasons they've done.
I just wouldn't be writing off any player in that 19-25 bracket, and that's after Docherty, Pickett and Willo have been taken off that list, so top 28.
The other interesting debate would be which one of Thomas, Jack or Kennedy would you select for round 1?
Jack is slowly building momentum. I like his intent. I’d keep him in the seniors and keep working him.
Kennedy needs to step up. Jury is out on him.
Thomas should be coaching, not playing.
Good onya Rexy.
Intent. Good word. Jack has made his intention known, or I think he has.
All 3 players imo are top 25/28 players on our list as of today.
We are just guessing just as any other forum or MC.
The MC know moe and I guess would measure intent.
For us its about pressure for spots.
And that measurement puts pressure on Thomas and Simmo.
They are bpth too important for now on direction, unless I'm believing too much that I'm hearing.
But at 32 and 35 years of age in 2019, we really shouldn't need them on the field at that age, and the class of players we have on our list.
I know Simmo is a freak. I have no problem with that. Just tells us our class list is still very very young.
Just sayin'.
