    Probably his best game, with 5 centre clearances, but he needs to find more of the ball, and I don't think he has the ability to do that.

    He averages 13 disposals per game and that is with midfield time.

        His 13 disposal game that day was more influential that any of Parish's 35+ disposal games

        Lets face it - when he's on song, Jake is an absolute star but he's Jarrad Grant in a lot of ways - his best is as good as it gets but you're rarely going to see it. He's pretty much de Goey if you order him from Wish.com

          I don't disagree, but I am happy for him to be at Essendon.
          He has wasted his talent.

            Perhaps it is just a day we refuse to remember, but Jakey cost us top 4 that day.
            Wonder what was different about Jake Stringer in 2021 that might not apply in 2022.

                Are you implying that Jake Jakey “The Package” Jakey Boy Stringer might be selective with his efforts on field and on the track when there’s money on the line?

                Because yes.

                          King Panos


                          While we’re talking of veterans who had a taste of the AFL, the performance of former Bulldog Marty Panos for Norwood on Friday night is worth a mention.

                          Panos was returning from a knee injury suffered in August 2020, meaning he had not played SANFL seniors for 628 days. He kicked four goals including the match-winner that helped the Redlegs, coached by Jade Rawlings, to regain the lead against the Adelaide Crows.

                          “The King is back” was all that was said in the rooms after the match after one of the game’s more remarkable returns.

                            He was touted as a mature age recruit a few years ago but obviously never got picked up and apparently picked up a nasty knee injury according to that. Probably one of those could have beens but things didn't quite fall his way.

                                It's perfect because he seems a good fella and hard worker but as an opponent inspires no fear at all.
