Player Watch #12: Jy Simpkin - 2021 & 2022 Syd Barker Medalist - 2023 co captain with LMac - re-signed until end of 2029

[ferball]

I’m assuming Jy is taller now than the NMFC site listing him at 182cm, would have to be around the 184 mark if Phillips is 181 and old mate Mahony at 178

Its his hair.

Mahony has got a jockeys head

Actually looks like he should be in the Pogues in that photo.

I watched the Richmond game again last night, damn he is good.

Hahaha they did LDU no favours with that second last photo. He's a good looking bloke normally but there he looks like a human thumb with eyes and hair.

Everyone trying to look nonchalant and/or menacing. LDU looking just happy to be there

* he's good. Add consistent goals and a bit more consistency and he's one of the best inside/outside mids in the league.

Jy’s Pose and vision is unbelievable.

fu** he's good. Add consistent goals and a bit more consistency and he's one of the best inside/outside mids in the league.

We talk about all the other young mids, sometimes its easy to forget just how good he is.

I know Jy disagrees that "flying the flag" is useless, because he is always one of the first to do so when necessary

Haha i reckon I've posted a variation of this post at least 50 times over the last year. IMO his ceiling is as high as anyone else on our list.

Jy as a player has a bit more pizzazz but the perception relative to his peers on here reminds me of Andrew Swallow.

Other young, sexy options drawing more attention yet these guys already won B&Fs and produced in their midfield roles each week at a relatively young age.

Has to be Captain next year. So many players hone on him at training, just don't hear anything about Ziebell's influence on the track. I think it is a great time to transition so Jy can grow in the onfield leadership as well which is where Jack shines.

love the way he goes about it, he is entering a phase where his body is getting to the point where its ready to deliver what he demands of himself. i absolutely love watching cunners ply his trade but in his absence this bloke is getting ready to step up to the plate.
