wolfie.........i dont think Jed is being groomed as a mini JPK ?

Lambie needs to stick with being an outside half or HFF in my opinion...........

Disagree strongly. From what I've seen of Jed, he's at his best, and truly, ridiculously impressive, when he's in the guts and extracting. He has such awareness, evasion, and skill, and he doesn't play dissimilarly to JPK in that role (though of course JPK uses brute strength, while Lamb uses a mix of strength, agility and smarts). If he's to make it as a footballer long term, it will be in the guts.

In the forwardline, all I've ever seen is an inconsistent half-forward that tries hard but flits in and out of games, and doesn't have the pace to make up for it with defensive pressure. Basically, what Mitch Morton is at AFL level, he is at NEAFL level. He is MUCH better as a midfielder.

You might say that when he's in the midfield, he's mint, but in the forwardline, he turns to jelly....

I'm not chewing the fat on this discussion.

Heard on the B and F night - Jed: "Why are so many older women dressed like me?"

I wonder how of these Jokes poor Jed has had to put up with in his life.
Surprised no one has brought up: " This here's a story bout a man named Jed"

Most of us are too young to remember a 60's sitcom I guess.

If he played on the wing would that make him mint jelly?

God you are a daggy lot.

I don't want to see Lamb cut let him play next year....

[BillyRayCypress]

At least this thread is moving faster than the actual Trade Week radio.

How many weeks left?

God you are a daggy lot.

Now you are making us feel sheepish.

This thread has affected my mind. I can't even make a U-turn without thinking of Jed. (Fun Fact: Apparently making a U-turn in NZ has a different meaning to what we have here)

He'll be stewing if he doesn't get a game next year

[Roscoe]

He'll be stewing if he doesn't get a game next year

I hear a few other clubs are having "a little Bo Peep" at him

He could be a Baaargain

[Dosser]

He's a good footballer but tends to shank his kicks.

If we do trade him , maybe we can "pull the wool over the eyes" of another club

[dimelb]

Or trade him to New Zealand.

While we are all concentrating on Tippett, I wonder if the Swans have approached any fringe players from other clubs in the background ? (ala Morton, Kennedy, McGlynn types).
