[Lore]

Contract Status: Out of contract 2024
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 19, Harlequin

Has been poor the last few weeks but not the only one.

Perkins, Guelfi, Snelling, Durham also.

Hey dergert imagine being such a f wit you need to laugh at posts from 6 years ago.

At least contribute instead of being a dick shit

Watching Stringer all his career and tackling is not a great priority for him , wasn’t at the dogs and not much better now.
He is a big body , no excuses really.

It actually has been improved this year and in parts last year. Problem is he now looks like he is playing injured and can not get into the game.

3 weeks in a row he's looked pedestrian in the forward line. looks injured.

someone mentioned he didnt train as much this week?

Given we've really limited his time in the middle, this might be the case, and even hampered he's still better than any other option forward....which i dispute when we've left Menzie out, Tsatas can shift some magnets, etc.

i was at the crows game and he looked the same then. just no explosiveness

Put him in cotton wool, get a proper pre season under the belt.

Not the impactful Jake we know last night. Must be bloody hard fronting up knowing you’re injured and likely to have a * game. Then have to log on to BF read the comments

Would he currently have the endurance required to log on to Big Footy do you reckon? It’s both username and password. Repeat efforts etc.

Rick’s absolutely bang on there - that doesn’t capture it too well at all

Herald Sun this morning stating Scott said 'Jake like lots of players this time of year is carrying something'
Not sure what the 'something' is....but his last month has been well down on his usual output ;-

career average: 13 disposals & 1.7 goals a game
last 4 games: 9 disposals & 0.75 goals a game

He certainly hasn't look right I think it would be well worth giving him a week off

It's in the press conference from Friday night. He didn't really elaborate further than the quote, but given nothing seems to be strapped and it's affecting both his endurance and his explosiveness, probably groins.

Could he be carrying a big fat belly?

 

[mcgrath_truther]

 

[Vindicater]

Injured.

 

[DERO]

Just wrap him up into cotton wool iuntil it is a contract year I guess. Right yodellinhank ?

 

[ant555]

Explains why he has been running like a crab .

Needed deloading a long time ago

Needed deloading a long time ago

Needs a deloading of the dinner plate

 

[Kong]

Needs deloading to another club.

What I'd give to be paid half a million a year to fall short of basic personal development and training goals each year, and essentially turn up to work half the time, half of that time being at a sub-par level.

will miss this weekend’s clash with Sydney after failing to complete main training this week with a foot complaint.

General Manager of Performance Daniel McPherson said the club will start the deloading process immediately to give Stringer the best chance to recover quickly.

“Jake was restricted with discomfort in his plantar fascia this week during some speed running at training. He won’t play this weekend, but we’re hopeful the injury will recover quickly,” McPherson said.

“We’ll know more after he’s had a few days off the foot, but the plan will be to deload him, complete some cross-training in the meantime, and then start to reload the foot and progress him back into training reasonably quickly.”
