    How many quarters has Stringer played? 6 max?

    So far so good, such a long, long way to go.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

        Forwards win premierships. No offense to Tom Williams who has been cruelled by injury, but pick 2 and 5 would have got us Franklin. Fifteenth, sixteenth is still a poor season.
        In this system ( which is awful) we're better finishing lower.

            Agree, way to early on Jake. Signs are good and he looks like he has the X factor about him.

                    Way too much expectation on this kids head.

                        Way too much expectation on this whole club's head - but you've gotta have hope or what's the point?

                        Stringer can handle the expectations - I suspect he wouldn't have it any other way.

                            He sets his own. Told everyone they were wrong when they said he wouldn't play round 1, and in every interview in the opening rounds for Willy he wanted to play for the Dogs yesterday.
                            If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                                He actually reminds me of a Trent Henschel, hopefully he has a longer career but Trent was a talented boy.


                                On Stringer we all need to calm down, 2 games and we have anointed him the next coming of Christ, its ridiculous

                                    To be fair, a lot of it is tongue in cheek. It's just fun watching a kid who clearly is a massive talent.
                                    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                                                I might be wrong, but I think and hope that Stringer will eventually be held in similar regard to Chris Grant, as a complete footballer who is a once in a generation player.
                                                That's a silly thing to say.

                                                Pavlich is one of the greatest footballers of the last 15 years. He'll be Fremantle's team of the century captain in 90 years time. Jake has played 1 game and 1 quarter.
