100% he should be in for Mansell. I'd take a deflated blow up doll ahead of coattails riding MRJ. It's his 5th year in the comp and offers nothing at senior level and should be dominant at VFL but isn't. Can't believe MRJ is contracted to 2026. Judson, Alger, Campbell and Mansell need to get repeated games together to try build some cohesion and to see if we need to still target another small forward.

Kicked 2 this week and 1 the week before.
He'd be a good player if he can hit a target. It's frustrating to watch.

Cmon mate, you’ve been here long enough to know you need to do that math for most posters, I had to get my calculator out
2+1 =3 goals!!!

Rioli hit a target, are you kidding? He has the worst skill set at the club. Yes even worse than McIntosh! Why would you play him before a kid that’s shown a bit like Alger? Make him earn a game. He was bog average/weak in the 2s.
Key word there is if.

Watching this guy the last 2 weeks, what really stands out is his elite foot skills. His set shot routine and field kicking is straight out of the coaching manual, very fluent, little that can go wrong.

Really hope he debuts this week, but given it hasn't been announced yet, I doubt he is.

Fawcett was only annouced late thursday arvo
kysaiah pickett - 23 (2nd June)
MRJ - 22 (1 Sep)
That said, Pickett has shown much, MUCH more than MRJ from about 20 years old. MRJ better get a hurry on.
TL/DR: This offseason, we need to poach Geelong's development manager, Nigel Lappin. Nige has turned quite a few players around, including making Stengle fit, dangerous and capable of stints through the midfield.

Both Bachelor and Yze talked him up MRJ, so doubt Jaspar gets a gig this week, great game and a level above. Not exactly my summation, not even close. Or subterfuge.

Its way too early for Jasper to get a game
The kid is the youngest player on our list and should be playing coates league this year and is far from ready
Give the kid 1 maybe 2 games later in the year for a taste and let him adjust to VFL level and a good preseason and have a good grounding for 2026
NO RUSH

I Jasper is 'ready', then I reckon play him. Even one game can help young players get an idea of the speed and pressure. MRJ is coming back from injury and isn't at full fitness.
Alternatively play TT there and bring KMac2 in.

Or alternatively play a more attacking forward line. Campbell, Lalor, Green, and extract more all round game from Bauer other than always trying to take the big pack mark.
