Re: Jack Billings
I don't know that that's true stinger. He has a very long stride which makes him appear slow. The opposite of our other gun jack who has a very short stride and he appears to be going very quickly.

Re: Jack Billings
Never wastes the footy. Clean hands and good mark for his size. Jimmy Bartel anybody?! Gonna be a really good player for our footy club for a long time.
Re: Jack Billings
Proves why high draft picks are so vital. Also proves why we are still so far away from winning.

Re: Jack Billings
Other teams have been marking him tight in recent games seeing how he is the one player besides Rooey who can hurt them on the scoreboard. Eagles let him go early and paid the price. He's still a boy - can't wait to see him with some bulk a big tank.

Re: Jack Billings
At the moment, he couldn't chase a two legged dog. But I'm guessing (and hoping) that is just his age. You don't lose your skills and he has them with hand and foot. You can improve fitness and tank. And as mentioned above, he forces players to run to better positions. In two or three years time he will be better, but tagged. Then the next phase will begin. We need another five just like him.

What does that mean? Are you saying he doesn't chase or put pressure on the opposition?
