Player Watch #12: Jy Simpkin - 21/22 SBM - 23/24 CoCapt

[Ischenko]

He was pitiful at that time.

Played great yesterday. As he should do being a 25 year old captain.

Yesterday doesn’t absolve him of his pisspoor efforts over the last 18 months.

Yeah I can’t think of a single mitigating factor.

You’re out there, you’re fit.

 

[justroyal]

You’re out there, you’re fit.

I’m pretty sure he meant his ex

 

[the big lebowski]

it was funny in the LDU interview after the game. “He never kicks them at training”

What a time to kick them. Jy this was a brilliant skippers game, but this cannot be a one off. EVERY WEEK.

I remember the pre season game against the pies earlier this year, he missed two set shots, one of which barely made the distance from 35 metres out.

 

[Disco Dew]

Huge game from jy. Can’t remember the last time he played like that.
Been a tough year for our skipper but hopefully a performance like that will reinvigorate him and he’ll tear it up for the rest of the year

 

[giantroo]

10 coaches votes this week.

 

[Engimal v3]

I can't be the only one who just realised he's only 26

 

[king of the road]

Y’all know JZ would have missed those two captains goals

Unless it was in a final at the G against the Cats to seal a win.

 

[Only Forwards]

Jack wasn't captain then.

Its alot easier to boot the **** out of the ball if you're not worried about a quad niggle. (Might not have been in kicking leg tho.)

 

[koshari]

He really had a good game, great player to watch when he is on. Possibly the best 1,2 game both he and ldu have played together that i can recall., supported by sheez , wardlaw and powell can be the midfield we go forward with, and thats not even taking colbys potential into account.

 

[archereleven]

Just hope it sparks a 2nd half run of top shelf games from Jy.

He is a hard body that is desperately needed around the stoppages.

There are a few more wins in the boys if they can keep the intensity on high.

When they say low grade hamstring, I hope they mean super duper mega low grade.

What a campaigner of a thing to happen after his comeback last week.

Hamstring strain.

"Last week's two-goal hero suffered a low-grade hamstring strain late in Friday's main training session and has been replaced by midfielder Will Phillips."

 

[Horizons_00]

We would have got over the line with him in that midfield

Sorely miss him

 

[tazaa]

Low grade hammy
Wont play against Melbourne.

Gee despite how well we played yesterday, some continuity for Jy would be nice.

 

[Horizons_00]

Low grade hammy

Has one sensational captains game and this happens

Can we have something nice?

 

[The acurate one]

He's like us having had a retched year, getting to the point he'll be like a new recruit in 25.

The year I called us to make finals, and I think I said that around 2020. Gasometer. In fairness to me I didn't allow for the Luff years, but oh well.

I'm backing in JY & us for a super 2025, the standard of the comp is average, so that will assist.

It was 50/50 Tuesday.
