Clisby Upgraded, 3 de-listed

[Cannon82]

I'm quite indifferent to Jetta he's got limited talents but he always puts in and isn't as frustrating as say Dunn.

That's because Dunn frustrates with flashes of talent. Jetta is comfortingly talentless.

Jetta seems to divide people, not too many fence sitters.

I'm in the pro-Jetta pool, don't think we've seen his best yet, but he definitely needs to improve and lock down a position. small defensive forward for me. invest dees!

in what's meant to be quite a shallow draft year I'd rather take my chances with him on a one year deal for 2014.

I am well and truly on the fence. Was all over him last year, pretty sick of the continued mediocrity though.

I'm with you.

I loved his front on tackle against Sandi 2 years back. His aggression is a trait we badly lack, but his foot skills are frightfully bad.

He's a modern day Phil Read.

Believe it or not, it was four years ago now.

So is Nev...

Just taking a lighter angle for a minute, I'm glad for Jetta's sake that he's still on the list having just got married. Would be a tough gig to be cut now.

You concerned he could be de-listed twice in the same week?

While that is true, he is also paid well to perform and lets be honest, has done very little since arriving.

Id be more than happy to earn 200K+ a year doing what some of these guys do week in-week out.

I quite liked the article on the website about the Freo guy who got de-listed and decided to start his pre-season early.

"Man loses job, cancels holiday to Bali to try to find new job."
Amazing commitment.

Hope we don't have to wait that long.

All jokes aside, this would be amazing to see. Jesse wearing a crown and wielding a staff while the Queen brings Excalibur down thrice upon his shoulders as Human Nature sing Waltzing Matilda.

James needs not look too much further than when he abused that poor girl over Instagram after round one this year. He didn't display emotional maturity, and a lot of the fans never looked at him the same.

Was still hard done by not to get a game, of course.

Girl? Instagram?

 

[SuburbanMe]

I've noticed magner has been getting his head in the media A LOT since being delisted. I've heard him on SEN, 774, MMM, HUN, AGE, and footy websites. Haven't really seen a player do it this much, I'm waiting for him to break out a Save Jimmy Magner petition.

Sucks that he was delisted, but as SSF said, that abuse thing and the comments on Palestine turned people off.

Forgot about the Palestine comments. You simply can't talk back to supporters after huge losses. He never understood that the people who get through the gates were the reason he was being paid to play footy.

Cheers, seems pretty average from both ends though.

You know what, I kinda wish He read this forum. If he did, he'd see that we actually liked him, but he'd also see that he did some really inappropriate things, and that they may be the reasons for him being cut. The club has gone through a lot over the past few years, and to be honest - we were really lucky he is a 'no-body' in the AFL because those Palestine comments could've caused a massive shit fight. With the Instagram thing, didn't he say that a girl should go neck herself or something?

Imagine if someone of notoriety did that (Gary Ablett, Judd etc...), and the media picked it up.

The club made it's choice for a reason, and even if what we've posted wasn't factored into the decision, it probably should've been.

In that article, he even states reasons why his game suffered:

"The reasons changed from week to week. Definitely speed was the thing, and Neil Craig was in love with speed in the game.
"Speed and ball use, but the two games I played this year (for 41 combined possessions) it wasn't an issue in those games.

No, in those games the use of the ball may've been the reason.

I get he's hurt, and is entitled to take a swing at Neeld and perhaps Craig, but to take a soft shot at Roos is poor form. New coach and crew come in, players always get cut because the coach just doesn't want them there for whatever reason - it doesn't matter - you don't factor into his plans, and the club owes you nothing, as they actually gave you a shot at the top level as a mature age recruit. I think he should just move on and look for other options rather than throwing his shitty nappies around the place like a baby.

 

[Andronicus]

Bit of a vested interest in Nev, but haven't seen much of him since he was playing juniors.

How has he gone in the VFL? With the right coach and him being played in the right role, I can see a huge upside, and hopefully he will turn into the player Melbourne need under Roos.

He is a fantastic guy off the field, and someone that would give plenty of time to Dees fans if you happen to bump into him on the street.

 

[Tulip]

Well said SM, unfortunately players get cut each year and take it on the chin. Magner should be out training for another crack.

Agree, his instagram business proves he is a massive sook. A coach like Roos looks at that stuff

What were the Palestine comments?
