Player Watch #5 Jack Ross

[telsor]

has been every bit as good as this 'sam walsh' joker for mine

Who?

 

[Marmik]

Ross reminds me of Federer. The way he moves is just so fluid and smooth. Also noticed he disposes the ball late, waits for the opposition to get close and frees up the other players.

Valentino is just going beautifully and purring like a Portia

How’s this quote from some Carlton gimp:

Don't care much for Ross, can find the football but no real point of difference beyond that. Not enough tricks to be a long-term effective midfielder, not damaging enough with the football, not quick, doesn't have great agility/lateral movement and is not evasive.

Fine for pick 40 but not a real miss in the draft. A Jack Graham type player that will soon be overtaken by the likes of RCD.

Stocker projects well with beautiful footskills on both sides of the body, great acceleration and lateral movement as well as being strong overhead with known contested ball winning ability.


....


Ross is matching it with guys like Oliver, Brayshaw and Viney while Stocker can’t get a game for the shittest side in the comp.

Looks like he doesnt watch too much footy or know enough about Ross

28 possessions and 3 tackles 7 contested poss,going at 71% with 81% game time in his 3rd game against a midfieldt that has Gawn tapping it down to Brayshaw,Viney,Harmes,Oliver. also a sub 3 sec 20mtr time

Jack Ross is also a september birth date compared to stocker who is a january birth day (8 months younger)

Ahhhhh Federer the greatest of all time in my book, unbeatable in his prime! Federer like McCleod like Knighta...all the grace and poise of making that impossible move look easy...grace under pressure...a delight to watch...

 

[Madtiger2006]

I think he will but might be out next week when Cotchin returns

Lol why would we weaken our side by dropping him

 

[Madtiger2006]

Ross and Caddy suddenly give our midfield a lot more size and depth

 

[Madtiger2006]

Jack Poss is really racking them up

 

[Drunken Wookie]

Comparison of Ross V. Walsh.

There's bugger all that separates them which is surprising considering the knob polishing Walsh gets compared to Ross.

[Barnzy]

Look how composed he is. Like he's in the matrix slowing the play down. No panic whatsoever.

You just can't teach that. What a pick.

I know Sydney Stack is the one getting credit atm in the media (& rightfully so), but this guy can seriously play. Great pickup

 

[joelsyt]

This kid will end up stealing Stack’s rising star nom this week most probably.

Love him a lot, he was so good last night!

Don’t think so. AFL love to jerk themselves off and Stack is too good a story.

That clown needs to put down the meth pipe.

Ross is likely already a better player than Stocker will ever be. In his first 3 games at AFL level he’s held his own and dare I say been dominant against the likes of Wines, Rockliff, Kennedy, Parker, Oliver, Viney. Meanwhile Stocker can’t even get a game at the worst team in the league.

 

[Dustin Credible]

When we drafted him, it was a as a big bodied inside mid... What's really surprised me is the quality of his disposals, he's a really nice kick of the football.

So how much does he remind us of Mark Coughlan?

 

[Madtiger2006]

Ross>Walsh

 

[RichoLedio]

He is well and truly under the radar, barely gets a mention anywhere

 

[Cdog71]

How much better does it look when you can play kids in the position they were drafted in.
