Player Watch #5 Jack Ross- Re-Signed until 2026

[TheDyerLegacy]

Happy for Ross to be getting the midfield time. Doing well offensively but obviously has deficiencies defensively. This is to be expected as he hasn’t been developed in one role and also been in and out of the team. Would love lambert to work closely with him on his running game.

 

[Charlie Pannam]

Good game again.Turning into a solid contributor.

 

[Timothy Luncheon]

Not very good that he's been 6-8 weeks away for so long now

A month later and he is still 6-8. Another Meehan masterclass.

 

[RoaringTiger]

Really disappointed he’s been injured this season. Would have been an awesome opportunity for him to step up another level this from solid contributor to future captain

 

[tunksy]

What round did he do his injury? Swear it’s been 6 to 8 weeks already!

Injured in round 4 against the saints from memory - so that makes it almost 9 weeks now

Round 5 he got injured. So 7 weeks now. Still listed at 5-8 weeks. Same disrespect shown to the fans as last year keeping us in the dark with so many players. I'm yet to see any form of commentary on Fawcett or Colina. They told us Hoppers been pushed out but act stupid with Ross. 6-8 weeks still after 7 weeks without talking about progress or setbacks and same as in the dark with Bauer most of the year.

So disappointing hey! Just be upfront!

Standard Yze line…

"We'll wrap our arms around him and help him through it."

 

[Bojangles17]

Another costly absentee , mids you can rely on for 20 plus ea week yiu can’t take for granted even more so when we re introducing a lot of youth that are building their tanks working toward 4 Q efforts

He has a stress fracture of the foot as serious as Smith and Lynch last year ... I don't see him playing again this year ... should be left in a moon boot for 6 months tbh ...

I can't understand that do his weeks never go down pathetic.

Wasn't Fawcett supposed to resume training in late May.

Really pissed off at his luck - I have always really liked him.

Drafted during a period where we were hot so hard to get a look in.
Dimma shifting him all over the park rather than playing him in the middle which is his best position.
COVID years stuffed natural development

Now this year, as he starts to establish himself in the middle, with Prestia, Taranto and Hopper missing fair chunks of the season tipping he would have locked himself into our best starting mid rotations...

Dude is still only 23 so has time but it's just another sad sad Tiger story from this shart of a season...

 

[Dragonss]

I don't see him returning to play again this season. They're screwing us like they did with Lynchy. If he's out for the rest of the season just tell us, don't lie to us and say he's 6 - 8 weeks for a month.

Can't wait to have him back in 2026

 

[lizard man]

is he really uncontracted at years end? That can’t be right? Surely we wouldn’t lose him after all this development?

We'll probably keep Graham and McIntosh and trade Ross.

 

[Madtiger2006]

Get him right for next year

6-8 months away

 

[DustinsGuns]

Anyone have an update on him? A Meehan special. Has been 6-8 weeks away all season.

to depressing to think about - the perfect year to just play Jack all season- destroyed far to early.
wrap the kid in cotton wool and forget 24' for him.
fingers crossed he will be ready for the start of 25' pre- season.

 

[tigers12]

I’m worried with all this time off with injury he won’t be the same and go back to being mediocre

 

[Madtiger2006]

Prepare for next year. Him, Clarke and Smilie will make a difference
