Jack has school committments, Eljay is very skinny. Both were eligible to play TAC Cup this yr (until drafted). I'm OK with them developing in the Casey 2nds !!Mr Magic wrote:I noticed that both Steven and ElJay were named amongst the best for the Scorps Rezzies.Eastern wrote:Ben & Jack Stephen are very much part of the future of our club.

Ben is a quality big kid who will need time to develop. Jack is in a similar position to what Luke Ball was when drafted, not quite 18 and just finished yr 11 at school. I think I read that Jack is currently doing yr 12 at St Bede's.
We need to be patient but we do have some real quality with these guys and others. The future is bright !!

That they were both capable of playing to that level is extremely encouraging.
