[TheGrizz]

Contract Status: Out of contract 2024
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 38, Happyskeret

 

[Ambrosia]

Love his endeavour but needs to be smarter with and without the ball

 

[Yoda_]

Can't believe he came back on from that flying knee to the face looked horrendous. Continued to attack the contest.

I was gobsmacked he was not concussed let alone back on the ground applying pressure

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Can't knock his endeavour, that's for sure.

 

[eth-dog]

Love him to bits. Re-sign him now.

 

[Nicholas61]

I was gobsmacked he was not concussed

I thought the same thing - my vision is not the best but it looked like a knee (someone else said hip). It was sickening and looked a straight into the ambulance to the hospital job.

Knee to the jaw

If not concussion surprised no break

 

[HirdyLannister]

I don't rate

Would surely need to be monitored tonight. Lucky it wasn't in the temple.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Tough nut. Big fan.

 

[citizen-erased]

There was this awesome passage where he harassed, got the ball, handballed it to a north player, harassed some more and as we got the stoppage sprinted forward to his spot

Love this kids work rate and awareness
The clean skills will come.

 

[Yoda_]

Fun fact, he's still eligible for the rising star


Sits 4th for total goals for all rising stars eligible (behind Van Rooyen, Amiss and Pedlar) and sits behind only Finn Calaghan for goal assists amongst all rising stars.

Good little player who kicks goals

 

[andleanback]

Huge fan of his. Tough as nails

 

[Nicholas61]

Ziebell was in pain with his knee so it hit Jye hard. I don't think many come back on from that - wouldn't be surprised if he needs plastic surgery and misses a couple.

 

[dank420_]

my boy

 

[Ati Tude]

He is doing enough. Bobs up and kicks a goal or 2, tackles and chases hard and is tough as nails. Keep playing. Can only get better.

 

[The Devils Advocate]

Epitomises the Tasmanian footballer.
When I saw that knee from Ziebell, I was 100% confident he would be back on.
I think you'll find he plays his best footy in the wet.

Yeah, I recall that.
It was almost like he did a Waterboy, passing it to the guy so he could hit him hard legally.

Probably copped worse than that most games growing up in Bridgewater

He’s tough. Will play next week

[Jazny]

He's tough!

 

[fairbump_playon]

Everyone loves a toughnut. I remember Caldwell getting ironed out last year after going back hard. Wins a lot of hearts.

Go the Jyes!

 

[Nicholas61]

Wonder if Ziebell is out with a knee injury from that? Maybe why he sprayed them out on the full

Guelfi getting thrown into the advertising boards/plastic chair for the cameraman by... was it NicNat?

And Hartley getting his face caved in by an errant elbow in a marking contest.

Can't all be Joel Selwood but it's interesting. Although last weekend we had a few running around covered in bandages.

 

[Nicholas61]

Not that you want guys getting kneed in the face but his attitude and the way he responded on Sunday an antidote to the downhill skiing culture we had become accustomed to. Same with Caldwell running with the flight getting cleaned up against Sydney.
