Swans don't seem to have great milestone games. If he isn't retiring after the last one happy to give him a few more chances until McVeigh or Hayward return.
Officially on Horse's untouchable list
Jose in essence is saying KJ can sit in a deck chair on a half forward flank, chowing down on duck eggs, slurping Coronas and admiring tumbleweeds as they pass him by.
Interesting contrast to the Hawks who have sent Roughead back to the reserves to find form

They still have 4 players more than us that are 25 or over in this weeks lineup. So it’s not a direct contrast as they have more experience even if they dropped Roughead.
I hate praising Hawthorn for anything at all but this is why they won three premierships in a row, and we lost two grand finals. Horse simply does not hold his players to an equal standard, and he doesn’t hold certain players to any standard at all.

This. There is no standard with Reid, Jack, etc. Then we have last year or two with questionable form for other players
You’ve only just figured that out?!
So if this “experience” card fails again, which it will as he’s cooked and can’t run anymore, then what? Somewhere along the line you have to reward good and demote poor performance. Surely 8 possessions doesn’t cut it!
Yep don’t forget we had Rohan in those grand finals who was never dropped and made accountable for his form. McVeigh walks in underdone. Tippett comes in underdone in lieu of Nankervis who had the form. Then we wonder why it feels like we’re carrying passengers. Story hasn’t changed since 2016.
What influence is he having on other players in regards to direction / instruction? Not everything can be measured statistically by us. Maybe it would be even worse without that instruction. I really don’t know.
What I do know is putting another kid out there wont help with direction / instruction and their output isn’t likely to be much more than Jacks, if at all.
When Buddy returns I would like to see Jack back in the NEAFL, as he can replace his instructional influence in the forward half.
So your suggestion is to leave a bloke in there who is totally cooked just because he’s somewhat experienced. How about play guys who get the ball more often?
