Will he get a run in the ones this year, do we think? Certainly looks physically capable, but that's only part of it...

Given how well our forwards are performing individually and as a unit I think it'll be tough. He'll have to be smashing the door down with big bags in the VFL. Great position for the club to be in.

Yep, fantastic problem....

 

[moginie]

In every interview he's had, he's come across as very focused, grateful and grounded.

Yeah, he's got it.

 

[OnTheRocks]

Does he look like he'd rather be on the piss somewhere?

Nah! But you've inspired me.

Attn Track-watchers!

Got a good feeling about Jasper - can any of you guys shed any light on how Jasper is going at training?

With the first teamers?

How's he fitting in?

I think he will debut sooner rather than later - I assume he's playing at Punt Road in the VFL game on Saturday - be interesting to see how he goes.

Showed a fair bit Vs GWS.

I think the recruiters may well have struck gold again with young Jasper.

Shane Sheridan - I think I read you knew him - any insights on what we can expect from Jasper, and how he is tracking with his introversion / shyness now he's in with a new group?

Thanks mate

There’s about 3 very recent interviews with him (I think all have been linked in this thread) that will give you a very good idea of how he is travelling.

My mate is good friends with his family, latest info is that he MAY travel with the team to Perth for WCE game, but only for family visit.

My son went to school with Chloe, his girlfriend. I know her mum quite well so will ask for any info next I see her.
I have been told she is seriously considering moving to Melb to be with him.

Scaife has only just arrived and played one game at Box Hill. Let’s see what he produces over the next few weeks before getting too enamoured with his potential.

Hard not to..... 2 relieving pack marks down the line - plus another 2 marks in the forward 60 for 2 goals in the first 7 minutes!!

3 goals for Jasper before half time.

Could have had 5

Key fwd stocks

 

[HoldingThe Ball]

Goal Assist and now pinch-hitting in the ruck!

 

[CHUBBSS]

Quite amazing how much talent we have had from The mid season! Scaife is a huge for just starting in the afl, another few years he will be massive

 

[Roddy]

Was that his first appearance in the B&G?

 

[Mopar Jason]

Was that his first appearance in the B&G?

No he played last week against the Giants and acquitted himself well

[Journeyman13]

Good start for the young man. Got run under the ball a few times Get Dermie to talk to him about use of his body. Plenty of room for optimism with Jasper. Looking forward to seeing how he develops.

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Does he kick around the corner?

 

[grumbleguts]

How many sons can he produce?

 

[Ka Norkers]

Scaife looks unbelievably good, put a pre-season into him, and he's our new key forward.

 

[The Chad and I]

Thrilled to hear about his form.
Sounds like he is replicating his highlights form into BH form, just like Dear did.
