Player Watch #46 Jacob Blight- Delisted

[THE_GUN]

This boy needs to be played

Not sure what the club is doing but selection integrity demands he plays

 

[Tiger1974]

Seems a bit shit if his form warrants selection but then we don't pick him because we don't want to recontract him. Each party entered into the contract though so I suppose tough t***ies.

Think that's a furphy mate. Prob someone on here made it up.

Instead of ?

Kosi , Bauer , Colina , Dow , Prestia , McIntosh

 

[Danog]

Kosi , Bauer , Colina , Dow , Prestia , McIntosh

Kosi isn't getting a game
Bauer did his ACL
Colina is delisted
Dow did his knee
Prestia and McIntosh aren't like for like

What are you smoking?

Bauer did his ACL
Colina is delisted
Dow did his knee
Prestia and McIntosh aren't like for like

What are you smoking?

Kosi is occupying a list spot
Bauer has had enough chances
Colina has had enough time
Prestia is ready to coach
Mcintosh - Thanks mate you can stay as a runner

List spots needed and Blight should be retained
Now if you are talking about team selection

Rest Vlastuin , Broad , Trainor or even Miler if we have to
We wont be beating the Suns so its all about having a look at players and what they have to offer

I smoke Winfield how about you ?

Maybe just maybe don't push me on this, as I haven't heard anything, he may not be getting games because he told them he's going back home. Just seems strange, otherwise not to play him as his start to the season was good, in fact better than most others.

If he told them he is going home then play him and activate the contract so they would have to trade for him

The thing is, we are not a nasty club; gone are the Graeme Richmond days. Anyway kid is better off back home and will get a game.

Has nothing to do with being nasty

If the eagles want him they will trade a late pick and if they dont we keep him as depth

But if we don't play him another game, he can walk.

 

[Meteoric Rise]

But if we don't play him another game, he can walk.

Not if we offer him another contract.

Then play him
simple

 

[Delorean]

Can be a bit of a squib at times. Maybe worth one last crack..

 

[tiger_tough]

Should get him to the contract trigger.....then trade him.

 

[THE_GUN]

Should get him to the contract trigger.....then trade him.

That would make the most sense
unless of course we are intending to delist him and don't believe there is any interest from any other club

 

[Truetiger]

Delisted

 

[SweetD]

Do hope he gets a run at one of the WA clubs, just ended up pushed behind a few too many here, shame

 

[Wavvey]

Shame it didn’t work out in the end, has talent and is a super athlete. Young’s return to the team killed him. Looked twice the player.

Go well, will cheer him on when he inevitably gets picked up as a DFA. Would be shocked if he didn’t.

 

[voorhees]

all the best Blight..
just didn't work out, hope he finds his way back to WA and another home

 

[Dragonss]

we couldn't have gotten a 3rd or 4th rounder for him??

 

[Barunga Bullet]

Seen much hate about this delisting already on different forums. He was very dominate at VFL level, but as we all know AFL is a step up again. He always looked a step behind when he played at AFL level. Just seemed too slow

 

[Black Saab]

A bit surprising to see him delisted. I wonder if pace played an additional role in the decision to cut him?

The list of tall backs ahead of him includes:
Miller
Young
Brown
Trainor
Broad
Gibcus
Balta
Gray

 

[tiger_tough]

He'll get a second chance somewhere. Was completely dominant at times in the VFL. Good luck to him.

 

[Danog]

Wish we could've got a minor pick upgrade for him but its the Richmond way to put players well-being first. This should give him the best chance of finding another home. Best of luck, Blighty. You gave it everything.
