Pure guesswork but it made sense on his trajectory that he will be even better in four years and that's when the big deal will get done.

 

[P Money]

Hard to believe he's only played 65 games

Sneaky chance for VC next year.. or at least leadership group? Love how he goes about it.. A starting midfield with Merrett, Caldwell, Durham... nice.

 

[fairbump_playon]

Lol, love the Boosh.

I knew I recognised Jye.

Now I recall from where .. he was on the cover of Cheekbone magazine.

It's so Essendon of him to sign a 4 year deal then dish up one of the worst performances he's has with his disposal.

He had 8 clangers for the match. Two resulted in direct goals. This also doesn't count his many butchered inside 50's.

Not sure what happened to his kicking, he was our best kick inside 50 in the first half of the year but has certainly gone backwards there

He is actually in the 10 worst inside 50. Though our forward line doesn't help'

Had a mare tonight but he is tough as nails and should be considered for the leadership group.

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Had an absolute mare tonight.

 

[ant555]

Think we need to start going with 1 year deals.

Even though his disposal was poor tonight I thought he looked like he was one of the only players who actually cared, you can see the passion and frustration on his face. I really wanted him at the Saints and I think he is going to be a great player for you long term, one of the positives of this season.

anyone reckon he should play at hbf?
