So we are a team struggling with ball use and set shots and the answer is Lin Jong? The sam headless chicken who fumbles, bullets handballs at players' feet and is quite possibly a worse set shot than Josh Dunkley?

.
Contested ball is now a weakness. That's a massive part of Jong's game. He wins the ball and doesn't get pushed off it. He'd be a good addition.

In regards to Jong I would like to see him play as a forward.

Has the size to be a third tall, Marks the ball well and tackling and defensive pressure would be good.

His biggest weakness is his lack of composure in transition and so many times he has been the one who has been the cause of a breakdown through the middle.

Think he could be a decent marking target up forward.

We need to send Clay Smith to Malaysia to get stem cells injected into his knees. Then bring him back in via the mid-season draft, send him into the guts and sit back and let the clearances come rolling in. Bring back Danny Southern while we are at it. Imagine seeing Smith and Southern lining up at a centre bounce together.

Jong is a good mark and pretty accurate for goal, from what I remember. He can’t be worse than what we have. No he can’t, be honest.
Eighth (seventh with Picken retired) career best shot for goal on our list at 48.5% (minimum 50 shots) so not bad...

SH = Shots
GH = Goals
BH = Behinds
NS = No Score
ACC = Accuracy

Deserved to be dropped. If he was to sook about it then so be it.

Like the change. Roberts hopefully travels with the team.
He’s not a midfielder he is a back man. He got moved back late and wasn’t too bad. I can’t get how he comes in then gets dropped yet, English, Richards, Gowers and Dunkley getting the Ayce Cordy treatment
