Player Watch #27: Jack Darling

[amaz199]

Second page? Not on my watch.

What a pick-up.

 

[McKuursma]

Second page? Not on my watch.

What a pick-up.

Been here for all of two seconds but reeks of shinboner. Love him

[amaz199]

Kicked a great goal on the run but I reckon it was a bit of a meh game from the big man.

Still did some nice things as he usually does bringing the contest but he should be looking to do a number on the Swans.

 

[Passmore]

I reckon he’s ok. Obviously no Tim Membrey, but still….

 

[Heaps of fun]

Boy, he was terrible.

 

[Disco Dew]

It was fun while it lasted.

 

[muttley45]

Any chance all this ruck work is wearing him out, and might need a spell ?

Just needs the extra tall in so he doesn’t have to ruck

It’s not sustainable

 

[Roosurgence]

It was fun while it lasted.

He wasn’t that bad and he kept presenting all night.

The lack of and shithouse and stagnant delivery into the forward line didn’t help any of our forwards.

Got ripped off a shot at goal when adjudicated as a push that wasn’t there, while multiple pushes that stood out from McCartin were let go.

We could clearly see McCartin’s shoves from our seat and the umpire had the same but closer view and just ignored it on every occasion.

 

[zoomba23]

Well that's more what most of us were expecting. I'm proud of him that it took till R4 for that side of him to show.

Also, get him out of the ruck ASAP ffs

 

[Dingster]

First half was ordinary but his second half seemed ok. Won his one on ones leading up the ground. Our ball movement was so slow which didn't help.

Had 6 disposals Dingster. His whole game was ordinary. :stern look

 

[Marstermind]

Was a complete non-entity in the game. Didn't do anything shit, didn't do anything good. If the reason we have him playing is to have him contesting as providing cover it was a massive fail. He was completely superfluous to the game.

 

[DuckYeah]

Where are yas now? Its round 4 and he’s ****in spent.

 

[Horizons_00]

100%

 

[TruRoo]

What are we going to do when this adequate looking man retires?

*efa

 

[El Capuano]

Why can't Comben punch hit? Did alright last year and could get him into the game a bit more when he's struggling down back

I'd assume we'd be concerned he'd fall apart at the first ruck contest

its also rare key defenders back up ruck as you want to maintain struture behind the ball at all times

Just bring Finnbar or teakle in already for a small

 

[TruRoo]

We are in luck - we don't have any structure anywhere to maintain.

 

[viccles]

Stop making him play a position he doesn’t usually play in

 

[Frank Thring]

Shout out to Jack who has been busting a gut and playing well. Has been asked to second ruck and play CHF and doing a decent job at both. Our blokes should be ashamed of themselves watching this bloke go about it.

 

[Billy Not Really]

[PLAYERCARD]Jack Darling[/PLAYERCARD] at CHF?

What the **** are we doing? Are we that bereft of any position players, depth and talent? Obviously yes because our ‘best 22’ couldn’t sniff the worst 22 of a top 8 club.

****ing sub-VFL mob we run out with.

 

[Topparoo]

He’s earning his keep is big Jack, one of the few who is.
