Player Watch Mid-Season Pick #13 (2021) - Jed McEntee

[pastmyprimus]

Zorko spent a lot of time in defence today. Jed was his match-up. The number of times Zorko ran out of the defence with a hapless Jed metres behind. Zorko finished with 26 disposals.

 

[Phar Ted]

Excluding last quarter sub shadow brain, Jed was once again the lowest rated player on the ground until he EXPLODED WITH EEEELECTRICITY to kick a goal with 1:30 left on the clock and 85 points behind

Imagine if after watching that game that was the best you could come up with, expand your thoughts.

 

[Windy Cindy]

He runs away from the footy is he the first forward in history who actually doesn’t want the ball or the opportunity to score

End the experiment for ****sake..play the kids

 

[Sewer de Lance]

His legacy will forever be tied to Ken & Koch, a complete failure.

 

[TazD]

His legacy will forever be tied to TeeKray , a complete failure.

Ftfy.

If we had managed a decent amount of inside 50s, Zorko would have had 50 possessions.

It's beyond a joke now.

It’s hard to believe that an AFL coach would continue to pick him. But that’s the point. Hinkley isn’t an AFL coach

To be fair it looked fantastic from behind the goals.

 

[Phar Ted]

Our best performed small forward for the game, well done Jed.

 

[Corby_says]

How about we play a footballer in his position, plenty of half back flankers who would do better, surely this lad is tired of being embarrassed it is so disrespectful to the rest of the squad.

 

[TeeKray]

Was a very skillful goal he kicked too which is predictably being ignored by the Dead Heads in favour of a fictitious narrative about an opponent he didn't actually play on. Typical.

I was at the game and you could see Jed was matched up on Zorko. Where did you watch the game from.

But hey you keep flogging that dead horse

I'm not surprised you watched him closely because you're obsessed with him in a way that can only be described as creepy.

And I'm sure you noticed that he spent plenty of time opposed to Starcevich (10 possessions), not that you will admit it.

So you didn’t watch the game sitting at AO. That explains a lot.

Your constant defence of Jed is one of the most baffling things I’ve seen on Bigfooty

More baffling than when we've just been thumped at home with the worse ever forward entries some choose to focus on Jed?

And your focus on Jed’s goal doesn’t count. That’s baffling

Are you Jedheads just perennially taking the piss now? A lot of us are deeply hurting about the state of the club. I don’t know if you, Teekray and others in your small group are serious. If you are, I truly feel sorry for your lack of football judgement. If you think you are being funny by irritating everyone else - which I’m sure is what is going on with Teekray - just stop.

I'll give you a hint - I will always defend players who put in unconditional effort because there are way too many who don't.

Bit like how all the geniuses on BigFooty thought we'd be a better team when the unconditional efforts of Dixon and Boak were taken out of the team. That's going well.

 

[JohnHinckleyJr]

Turned the game with his shittness from 6 points to what 69

That makes it even more perplexing.

I’ll never understand you on this one. Just because you feel sorry for McEntee, it doesn’t mean you have to support his selection so unconditionally. It’s become as blindingly bad as Philthy’s defence of Marshall.

It takes a lot more than effort to be an AFL footballer. I’ve seen lots of footballers who put in effort that aren’t good enough. That’s Jed. You could have kept Frank the Tank in the team. He puts in but isn’t in the team for obvious reasons.

And as if Boak and Dixon are the reasons we lost today. Lord kicked 2 by the way.

Obviously it takes more than effort. And if we had 4 Willie Riolis then Jed would never get a game. But we don't.

Boak and Dixon not playing isn't the reason we lost but I can guarantee we would've been at least slightly less pathetic with them instead of say Marshall and Farrell (to name two low effort players).

And no need to bring Lord into this, he's a favourite of mine, always gives a contest and keeps trying.

Starcevich is Brisbane's best lockdown defender, and is in the team solely for that purpose. He averages 10.5 disposals. Dayne Zorko on the other hand is probably on track for an AA spot as a rebounding half back this year.

wtf is Mr 'elite defensive pressure' (one tackle today by the way) doing hanging around Starcevich while Zorko tears us several new ones?
