So you have a player KJ who "picks" and "chooses" for 2 years and probably isn't a team man.
Do you
A) pick him after 6 good weeks
B)test his desire and hardness over 3 months
C) Put a line through him.
If you answered B) you were correct
If that was/is the case, I would be ok with it. On the basis that KJ knows its the case and he is not dead in the water. I hope they haven't closed the book on him.
No, you're wrong fmurphy30.
Don't you know. Someone who knows his postman who knows his butchers Uncle said he has given up.
Resulting from that the posts tell us he "picks and chooses" and "
probably isn't a team man"
Possibly, maybe.
He's now giving up and having a sook. What's more, he wants to be spoon fed!
Obviously he's not "tough and uncompromising"! Forget the fact he played out his first game with us with broken ribs and a punctured lung. Then spent the next few days in hospital. Heroes like Michael Jezz could do that!
Forget 10 contested possessions last week, that's for pussies. Get with the program.
Just ask his next door neighbours hairdressers chiropodist! It's all true!
Very entertaining post. Well written and gave me a smile. But really a load of rubbish. What's more likely in your opinion?
Option A: He is an awesome player giving 100% and delivering on what the club asks of him and being really hard at it and kicking 5 goals and being ignored for selection because the MC don't like him?
Or
Option B: that he isn't doing what is asked of him, is only laying an average over 3 years of less than one tackle per game and isn't doing the hard stuff and is instead taking a few marks against ordinary VFL opposition and kicking a few goals?
Please. Tell me, do you honestly believe A or B above?
What about Option C?
Option C is he didn't prove himself in his first 2 years and the pressure is on him to retain his place.
He currently isn't doing enough to demand his place and unless he improves his output, he'll probably be delisted.
None of which I disagree with.
What I do disagree with is keyboard heroes who probably squeal like pigs when they get a paper cut, accusing our players of being cowards or lacking heart. Or others who make claims about tackle stats which are blatant bullshit.
And then using those fabricated stats to try and prove a point. Let's face it, if you have to make stuff up, your point is probably crap.
I'm also bemused how you're such an expert on Jaksch' form yet you haven't actually attended a VFL game.
I don't claim to be an expert but at least I've attended most VFL games and actually watched the players.
By the way, if you're going to call my post rubbish, at least point out the inaccuracies. But I suspect thats not your style. You don't seem to be big on facts. Or at least real ones anyway.
