    Is Jessie doing enough to keep him from being traded to the gold coasters?
    In a word, yes.
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

      In fairness to J.White, he is basically being asked to be a one-man forward line since Goodes is playing more in the midfield.

      But this article suggest we may get Bradshaw and McGlynn back next week.

      Should take some pressure off White. I could see ROK making way, but not sure who else. Moore?

        I spoke to Braddles during half time. He admitted that IF we make it to the granny he'd be a CHANCE to come back. A slight chance.

        Spoke to Seabs too ... he won't be back to play this year.
        Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
        Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

          Yes. The club should keep him at all costs. He will get better and better with more games under his belt. He provides a target up front, can take a grab and split packs and helps create chances for our crumbers. He is only 22 years old and hasn't played the game for that long. He was trialled as a ruckman but his true value is as a forward and being a KPP he needs time to fullfill his potential.

                Don't forget that Jessie played some great full-forward football last year. As Sydney's only big forward, he might not have done what you'd expect today, but he kept at it. He set up goals, like his effort against two Blues to gift Jetta the goal in the second term. He worked hard and made space for others to move into.
                He'll never be a Lockett or Carey. But he will get better and he's playing a role that works for the team.
