      Whoever gets him will be very lucky. Will dominate.

              agree..........re Jetta as he has limited skill but he has alot of potential and we are fairly well covered in most possies except wing and upfront speed, speed and more speed

                        Most late picks are high risk, Jetta is "mature age" so he's probably the least risky pick of them all. Rohan isn't a huge risk imo, expect him to succeed.

                          jetta........his skills are ordinary, his decision making with the ball and his marks are below average.........BUT

                          Kirk will take him under his wing and make those hand passes bleed !!

                            He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

                              Happy with our selections.

                              Why hasn't Jetta gone in previous years? Seems strange that you go from not getting picked up to a first rounder. Or did he just not enter in previous years?

                              No Panos? Amazing.
