Delisted #46: Tom Jok - Delisted - 24/10

[Seagrave_Holmes]

Hold your horses, he's literally played 1 game for the club and I'm guessing most of the doubters hadn't seen him play at VFL level either. Classic bigfooty

 

[TheGrizz]

Apparently was concussed in the 1st quarter.

Explains the fumbles and suspect disposal. Bit worried he was allowed to play on though... how did no one pick that up?

Delayed concussion is a thing

It was in the last quarter, he ran into Petrevski-Seton's hip

 

[Lore]

Concussion confirmed in the injury report video on the club website, and won't be available in JLT2 as a result.

Too early to give Jok a run against the saints?

 

[Duckworth]

I thought his kicking in JLT 1 needed some work. Looked quite loopy without a lot of penetration. Am I being overly harsh?

Too early to give Jok a run against the saints?

Yes, way too early. Would do neither us nor him any favours.

Perfect! He’ll fit right in

His kicking is his biggest weakness.

 

[Vander18]

Yes, way too early. Would do neither us nor him any favours.

He’s physically ready right now - probably the best all-round runner at the club, 6’4 and strong enough.

Kicking needs work but seems like a very bright kid so will pick up systems/game plans well enough. Comes from a great system at SKOB.

* it - I’d give him a run.....maybe not this week but soon.He’s actually something we need.

If it doesn’t work he can go back to the VFL and work on whatever needs work. He won’t break and he won’t be mentally crippled by playing.

Let’s be brave at selection for once....”be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid.”

 

[Fear Boner]

I guarantee you if he was playing for a team like haw/geel/syd he would get a few runs this year .

Those teams reward young talent and keep adding new pieces to that team to make them relevant

 

[Captain chaos]

Thought he was very good today in wet conditions at sandringham.

Yep - I wouldn’t be against bringing him against the Demons

Clearly the most ready of the newbies. Though does look more of a second half of the year thing if it happens

 

[Yoda_]

Has some tricks and someone who we could use at some point in the seniors. Needs to find a role for the seniors and force his way in at some point this year.

 

[Lore]

Bone bruising is healing, another week or two progressing his running.

Tuth ‘Tom’ Jok has also taken steps forward and is eyeing off the same timeframe following bone bruising to his knee.

“Tuth was back on the AlterG today, which he tolerated well, so we’ll just be progressing his running from here over the next week or two.”

 

[Maddogm]

Said at the sponsors night last night that he'll be good to go this weekend

 

[eth-dog]

Great news. Gonna be a strong VFL side this week.

 

[eth-dog]

Is he injured again? Hasn't played since round 9 but no news on the injury front.

 

[eth-dog]

Continues to miss selection from the VFL side. Bemusing to say the least.

 

[Lore]

What's going on here? Has he been playing VFL? Hasn't been named in the side for weeks, had one week back after his knee injury (bone bruising or whatever) and then haven't seen him listed since the bye

 

[Kakkle]

I read somewhere that he did his hamstring, but not sure where!?


Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if he was delisted come seasons end.

Depends on who else gets cut. I see players like Baguley, Myers and Long almost certainly ahead and I'd probably keep him ahead of Houlahan (who I do think should get another year just to see if he continues to improve) FWIW.

If Clarke whips out another ruck performance like last week, I'd rather see Jok (equally undeserving as Clarke) get a shot in the 1s as the ruckman. At least jok has some athletic ability.
