Big Whitey

[alt_mattr]

Can I just say both Reid and White are excellent footballers, great guys and try their guts out. We are bickering over which is better is like bickering over whether a Porsche is better than a Maserati. Sure, one probably is better than the other, but having both in the garage is pretty bloody awesome.

I just want to enjoy the fact that a good player had a good game and we have a squad with too many good players in it.

I must say, lets see him back it up for a few weeks in a row before we exhale...

I was his biggest fan (big footy and RWO were my defending battle grounds), but last year I gave up hope and looked elsewhere for our next KPP. I dearly want to be proved wrong. As watching him live that day against Carlton in 2010 when he was leading and slotting 4, I dared to believe and was saying Barry who?

We should remember that Jesse started putting in consistent reserves performances from the middle of last year, when he started playing mostly in the ruck. And he has carried that over to this year. He put in a fair performance in his first senior game this year, and we all agree quite a good one last week. So there are a few positive signs that he may have in fact turned the corner. But the jury's still out. We just have to wait and see.

I'd like to see Sammie and Jesse create a website and call it Reid and White Online.

Mighty Whitey tweeted he was delighted to be the focus of the Quad Call. Good luck to him, he deserves it.

It was a special moment. I never realised how fast he is, in modern footy that type of foot speed is pretty handy

The other Jesse goal that comes to mind was against Geelong in 09 or 10 where he burnt off one or two players and booted it at pace from near the 50. Like this one a beauty to watch and not at all a big man's goal. Glad he's got the recognition.

I think (hope/want maybe?) that this year he's added some serious fitness to back up these acts with work up and down the ground. Hopefully like Jetta took his speed and backed it with fitness in 2012.

That Jesse feels this was a better moment than the tackle and shepherd he applied to allow everitt's goal disappoints me but affirms my belief that he is still missing the point of how the swans play and think.

I think you're reading way too much into that.

He's fast, he's big, can take a mark, and is that rare and valued commodity of forward/second ruck.
Plus he's playing in a club which manages to eek out every possible bit of a players ability onto the field.

So why isnt he a superstar ?
It doesnt make sense.

Yeah, spot on.

FRom the MMM commentary, he can now be called Jesse Wow! (about 36s in)
