Just about to get into full training after being eased in after the glandular fever. Reported last week.Anyone got any Pre-Season Updates on young Jordan ?
hope this kid gets fast tracked at the expense of a tall back/guthrie/bews
i suspect he'll only get a handful of games when there are injuries

Not trying to raise expectations but Jordan has some great personal qualities as well as high footy IQ and skills - very glad we got him to be honest - our halcyon years had us with some very , very good HBF's - Boris/Mackie/Wojo/Hunt.
He played some very good games over here in the WAFL
He's a good size , very aggressive , makes good decisions and is prepared to back himself.
We will be cautious due to the GFever but I'm confident he'll push for selection on his output at training and the VFL - one to watch
If he is the kid wearing no6 and the cap peak backwards at training. Then:Im sure we hope he becomes a player ... can we expect drive from the backline like siad etc id not really would have said Boris was that type..he was perhaps the best reader of play I have seen then when to go when to stay.
When you say aggressive... he tackles a lot?

Why would we fast track?.... imo he needs to develop and earn a spot. Is it a talent observation on your behalf or is it more you feel the players named need to be removed from the side asap.
Parsons was shithouse last year any way you want to spin it.Parsons increased his scoring averages and still played some okay games last year.
The one damning thing I hadn't realised until I checked which games he played is his very poor W/L. 4-7 in a season when the team overall finished 13-9. So we were 9-2 in games without him.
he has attributes we badly need in the backline
good decision making and good kicking
gets the Varcoe treatment for mine
id like to see him play before i give that a tick ... if we have a wa guy that want to be here long term .. i think its important for us to give him a solid foundation
Yes, and those Joel Corey and Harry Taylor picks also ended badly....Surprised me they'd pick a West Australian after the Kelly issues.
I think we have a good record with unencumbered kidsSurprised me they'd pick a West Australian after the Kelly issues.

And Mitch Duncan is still at the Cats despite the rumours every October.Yes, and those Joel Corey and Harry Taylor picks also ended badly....
Can you give us any examples?Touche!...still it was all happening at the time.
He’s a slow decision maker with no peripheral vision. No core strength... can’t land or break tackles, and very very lazy. Will not chase
It was frustrating to see Parsons given games, so hard to watch, he took over from past frustrating and over-rated players in Murdoch, Lang and Smedts. It staggers me how these guys got so many games when they're obvious AFL spuds, not sure our coach/s is one for eying non-talent, at least with Murdoch he put a few serviceable games nearing the end but finals.... YUK, it's if he was a deer caught in headlights and literally shitted himself.... and no more Parsons, PLEASE!Parsons was shithouse last year any way you want to spin it.
It is, my apologies and my bad...... IN Jordan Clark, OUT James Parsons, regardless of different positions, the kid is gonna be a gun!Sorry! My mistake. I thought that this was the Jordan Clark thread.

Kelly is an exception and not the rule.
And Mitch Duncan is still at the Cats despite the rumours every October.
Sam Menegola has not made any noise about returning to WA.
Wow, insightful.
Menegola asking for a trade back to WA would mean double go-home, because he originally left Hawthorn to go home to Freo (in part to leave the rookie list and have more stability).
When drafted Clark said he wanted to go play in Melbourne, so maybe it's not the Perth clubs we should worry about.
