Jesse White

[Chilcott]

Seems strange that big Jessie hasn't been given a senior game as yet.

Don't see any reserves games, but going by the game summaries he seems to be inconsistent.

Will he make a good senior player? Or will he be a permanent reserves player until he is dropped off the list?

Peoples thoughts?

I think he has an excellent chance of making it to senior level, but people need to be patient.

Not many young key position players or rucks come into senior football early in their careers. Not even those who are highly rated as juniors. He's an ex-basketballer with limited footy background who was taken at the low end of the draft. He has excellent athletic capabilities, plays with a lot of enthusiam and is gradually getting better. He's played some very good football for the reserves and some not so good football. Give him some time!

I agree with Liz.

There seems enormous expectations on White who has limited football background and was taken with a very low draft pick. Yes he?s a big unit but also very still very raw from what I?ve seen. There is no obvious position for him to come into the side, even without Hall.

By the way, his name's Jesse.
Jessie's a girl's name, and Scots for sissy. Not for our bloke.

If he played for West Coast, he'd be named Jessie

What are you on about you big Jessie?

[hudsta]

is he a realistic chance of getting his first start against Geelong?

In a word....no.

In a word....no.

I don't know; with Gundy apparently still injured (1 week on the Swans website), we will need another utility. Brennan played like @@@@ if you ask me. White is a decent chance, I reckon.
