Re: Stringer Trade Worth

Had a rare opportunity to hear a perspective from someone I believe has an ear with a Snr Club person. Described Stringer as a POS. That was enough for me to just let the whole story go and focus on Footscray.

Pardon my ignorance, what is a POS?

It's a piece of something.

At the bulldogs or Essendon ?

I think he's talking about Jakey boy's behaviour when he was with us.

The exact type of behaviour that Essendon will begin to have trouble with-if they aren't already. "Whatever you do, don't let Stringer anywhere near the young players"

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

If he turns his life around - good. But I will be really angry if he starts to play great football again with Essendon, a club that I have zero respect for. I just can't understand Stringer

That's because what he is doing makes no sense. Not to us or anybody. Jake probably doesn't understand why he some things. It's only when he starts to work it out and understand it that he will take the first step in the road to recovery.

I think he'll have a great season in 2018. The test will be when he settles in.

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

I’m predicting lots of soft tissue injuries for Jake Stringer for 2018,as a result of not doing the right thing in 2016 and 2017

That's a history of Jake full stop.

Re: Stringer Trade Worth

I am not sure what the author is trying to achieve with this article; and what Susie expects Jake to do about his life to date.

All he can do is to give his new life his best shot, with his new club.

I don't know how many times she thinks you can hang someone for their past crimes.

Whilst (here I have to be honest) I hope he fails with Essendon as a footballer, I truly hope he can turn his life around and hopefully earn the trust and respect of his children in the future.

Articles such as this will not assist in that process.

Not sure, but I don't recall reading about his shagging teenagers in a press article..I think much of the reason for him leaving the Dogs could be lost on people who don't trawl the net for the info. Putting it in a well read newspaper at least balances the argument about Jake's supposed trade value and what he's bringing to Essendon.

His history says he's not a good teammate. Essendon are painting a picture that he's changed and about to take the competition by storm. I think it's fair for people to be aware of exactly who and what he is. That's a talented footballer who thinks only of himself.

His ex wife's interview mentioned he was shagging a 17 year old while she was pregnant. The parents of the 17 year old even let him sleep at their place. This is totally inappropriate, not only because he was married but also the power over the young teenager - bit like the teacher/student, Film director/actor roles. That shouldn't effect his football, but there are many things that he did which not only effected his team mates but also his performance

There was a problem with Jake bringing his "girlfriends" to training as well IIRC.

There were quiet a few too. One rumour was he also had a go at one of the players girlfriends, but I can't confirm that.
