Sorry, but which Jesse are we talking about??? Jesse Lonergan will go and high. But I thought some one brought up Jesse Wells. I remember up here on the coast a former coach of his, who shall remain nameless, reminded many that Jesse was said to be the worst draft pick by the western Bulldogs... ever. It was a comment that apparently the people of the doggies said. Now this is harsh, however, I wouldn't have thought Wells was much of a mature age recruit. I wouldn't have him in my best team in Tas, let alone as the best bigman or even top 3 bigmen.
Laycock,Cassidy, Reynolds, Lee, Drury and so on... these are all versitile too. Wells probably didnt get put in the state team because he simply wasn't good enough. Although that selection was a debacle
Not sure if you're serious or not with this post? On his day, easily in the top3 players in the State: Laycock, Thurley and Wells. Spoke to NHFC coach who rates him as the best player in state, bit bias I know, but have to take into consideration that Springer has been apart of the AFLTas programs and would have relationships with the best Tasmanian players and know their games inside and out. Also Springer said that he has grown up a hell of a lot. Plus watched his draft video and seemed to play both back and forward, not sure how much more versatile you can get?? Would be a rough, but wouldn't count him out.
