If he isn't a Nathan Bassett clone.....socks down, gangly, slightly awkward yet effective way of delivering the ball from hand > foot when kicking.


His coolness under pressure at his age is almost psychopathic.

yep, as they mentioned in the broadcast, and plenty of others have mentioned it too, he plays with the composure of a 100 gamer.

Surely it is his turn for a rising star nomination this week?

Plays the Jaensch role better than the man himself.

Does Jaensch have a spot in our team next year when he comes back from injury?

I think Jeansch's form in the last half of last year and this year prior to his knee has him in the best side. His disposal is probably in the top 5-10 ion the list and it frees up Rory and Smith to head into the mids. He looks to take the game on which is what we need with some old school defenders in Brown and Talia back there.

I agree that his disposal is good, I guess he probably comes in for MacKay, who has been playing more half back since jaensch left

Yeah i would then push McKay back up to a wing. He is struggling for touch down back, but he has probably never played there before.

Another player I have been very impressed with is Brodie Martin. I thought his career was probably over, but he has come in for VB and really given us something.

Hehe. Yeah, hopefully we can get a scalp in the next 6 weeks and sneak into the eight.

I am excited for the future though as the younger lads are where our improvement has been coming from, especially from the younger lads who I thought probably weren't good enough to play afl - CEY and Knight to name two.

Oh ok, so do I then as does the Houghton C grade assistant water boy.

Literally 0% chance.

The fact he has put his hand up makes him look even stupider than he already did

Please not mr grumpy.

For the first time in years I actually feel like the crows had been making great strides off the field, with the right people in the right places. The marketing was less kitsch too.

As an assistant coach? quite possibly, he does have a ton of experience

if he was actually serious he would have called the crows already - seems more likely to be something that has just been blown up because mick talks to 5aa every week
