Past #7: Jack Ziebell [Part II] - retires post-RFC game/280gm&183gl/6yr captain - Shinboner - assaulted post-RFC game& in hospital - get well soon JZ

[Flawed Genius]

Jack becomes just our second player to hit the magical 10K post limit on his player watch thread.

The other one was Boomer.

Here is Part I

Jack sits 37th on the NMFC all-time games played list with 165 games.

The first post of Jack's first thread was this:

What do you think?

I think he is a future captain of the club.

Pretty good.

Continue!

He's a natural forward - just thought I'd get this in early.

If I could pick one player in this draft to suit Norths most urgent needs, it would be Ziebell. I will be stoked of he drops to pick 9.

Ziebell is 26 days older than Watts, you idiot.

Watch the game tonight and you will realise the horrible mistake Melbourne have made.

For the record, I have seen Jack Ziebell play one game for North and I predict that, injury barring, he will be a 200 plus game AFL footballer and is an even money chance to hold a captain/vice captain position.

Forward pocket rotating on the ball.

Dusty will be the third.

Anyone got the blueprints or 3D printout of his Arden St statue yet?

 

[Horizons_00]

MUST play forward at least 80%

 

[Groin guru]

Kicked 5 goals in a half of football.

If he played forward for an entire game he'd average 10 goals a game. That's 220 goals a year. He would have already broken lockett's record if he started forward. Hopefully the club have seen the error of their ways.

So Mario, whoever he may be, was good at darts??? LOL

 

[Rockstar6]

He can do what ever he likes for the rest of 2017 but when 2018 pre season starts he trains as a 80% forward and 20% midfielder.

Surely Jack is just going in for full body surgery at the end of the season?

Valmorification obviously.

Good - at least we now know what the issue with JZ is.

We had talk of shoulders, ribs, OP, legs etc - it was amazing he was able to run and kick at all.

So its a toe injury which will now be fixed so that JZ can be ready for pre season - this is good to hear.

Brad wants to push Zeebs and delay surgery








I'm sorry, what's the point exactly? There is no risk there? Jeez

Jack probably kept it to himself, although it was acknowledged he'd been dealing with it for awhile. Toe injuries can definitely be debilitating and difficult to solve nonsurgically. Get him in for a complete overhaul now FFS.

Needs to improve his running patterns and connectivity with BBB. I thought he got in Brown's way a few times today.

Yep, get out of his way ffs!

The toe has not been his sole issue. It is quite remarkable what he has carried through this season.

He shouldn't have played then. This sort of stance at selection has cost us numerous games as well as long term injuries.

Nor his sole his toe issue?

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Toe injury mentioned in NMFC article, but I've also been told he is getting a shoulder op which may delay the start of his pre-season.

Neither would surprise. One thing's for sure, he needs a big preseason. Playing him banged up does him and us no favours whatsoever.
