What has KJ done? He is the last guy on the list that can't get a game, every fit player, even rookies have been tried before him. For heavens sake the guy is a third year first rounder he has to be worth a game in a wooden spoon, injury riddled list

For those of us who have not watched a lot of VFL this season, what have been the main problems with his game?

I thought, despite not being ready, he showed some AFL attributes in the NAB Challenge and in his few games at the start of the season.

Yep, I also thought he showed some potential early on. I remember thinking he seemed to be a decent kick, god knows we haven't got many that are.

Are we playing a 'modern exciting brand' of football again this week?

If so, can we contain the margin to double figures?

He is a tall and needs some continuity. I think what they are doing is okay. Starting to find his feet and playing some decent football. I am all for letting him develop and get some footy under his belt in the reserves. His time will come.

Malthouse and Wiley really rate him.. but probably expected too much from him early on

I was never for kj. I didnt understand why so many on this site were pumping up his tyres and whiley. Same people on this site were probably pro mm too. Thought it was a bad use of a top 10 pick. Gws would be laughing. In the end we gave up pick 7 and got boekhorst, kj and whiley. 3 duds that cant get a game in our current list. I think they all have 1 season left to prove themselves or chop chop

I am too disappointed that KJ isn't playing especially when Jones was dropped and we brought in wood- - cant understand why whiley isn't playing either

iM GOING JUST HOPING FOR BETTER SPIRIT AND BETTER EXECUTION THAN LAST WEEK

Would prefer if we play Henderson in defence. He needs a confidence boost and might as well play him where he plays best. Just doesn't show the physicality that a power forward should.

In fact, just send everyone into defence and leave Casboult in the goal square...

Jaksch has been named CHF for the NBs. Considering he hasn't played 1 full game in the forward line since joining the club, its probably a sensible decision to give him a taste there is the NB's first.
The coaches should be applauded for putting his development ahead of instant results.

Phew, I thought you were going to make a stupid, ill informed generalisation there for a moment

And you did.
