Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
Clint Jones and Beau whatever he calls himself should never play AFL again.
Finish the year at Sandy and back to the WAFL for both.

Re: Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
Agree. Both players try their guts out but neither can execute basic skills of the game. Jones can't kick, tag, mark, tackle or make an intelligent decision. Beau can't hold marks and convert basic shots on goal.
Maister may need to play a few more games this year for structural purposes but if Lee or White are deemed ready then they should be straight in for him.

Re: Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
Agree !!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly , they are not the worst players !
They just have No future in the game !
There are a number of others who have no future in the game but as club stalwarts should be allowed to retire gracefully !

Re: Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
Dal is actually turning the ball over as much as Jones- Lenny stuffed one up too. I think we have suffered a psychological blow with the Adelaide loss.

Re: Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
Jones should be gone, we have players in the 2s who are performing and deserve a go. Not sure the same is true for the Tall forwards. Lee didn't exactly set the world on fire when he played seniors... might be better for his development to get some kicks for Sandy rather than stagnating in the ones.

Re: Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
It could also be good for his development to play alongside one of the best CHFs of all time. I don't think Lee is up to it yet, but he can't be much worse than Beau and it's probably worth having Roo teach him everything possible while he can.Richter wrote:Jones should be gone, we have players in the 2s who are performing and deserve a go.

No Wilkes mmaister was ok but dropped a couple, CJ was just average but turned over a ball for Rooey straight to the rebound for the Dogs. Hayes and Dal probably looked the worst I have seen them. Mc Evoy was terrible in the ruck and generally s*** and Armitage missing meant Dal stood around watching Jack on the bottom of the pack getting triple teamed.

Re: Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
our main issue is our mids wining the ball off the tap... just getting killed here. also pressure lack of.

Which is exactly why he shouldn't play. If he can't get past the likes of Kosi and Maister, he doesn't deserve a game.mad saint guy wrote:I don't think Lee is up to it yet...

What's to get past? Are Kosi and Wilkes the future? If not, let Lee learn by playing with the master.vacuous space wrote:Which is exactly why he shouldn't play. If he can't get past the likes of Kosi and Maister, he doesn't deserve a game.mad saint guy wrote:I don't think Lee is up to it yet...

Didn't see it, but he's down as having ten disposals and a goal. Was he really that dominant?dragit wrote:He was the best forward last week at Bendigo… but Maister held his spot why?

Re: Jones And Wilkes Should Never Play AFL Again
Hickey kept turning the ball over although he got a bit of it. Field kicking is atrocious. Both he and Ben are going to be very good but we are going to need to suck it up for a while I think. These two will be fantastic when they are in their mid twenties but right now they are poor.
