Jack Hiscox

Needed to bring a microscope to see hiscox. Unsighted in this match.

First and last game hopefully.

Couldn't find Hiscox out there today, wondering whether he went ball watching with Cox up at the Gabba who thought Wood was hard today for Norf, but might have mistaken that for Steele's Sidebottom.

Didn't set the world on fire, but neither did many others in their first game

Robinson played a couple of games last year, but didn't play a decent one until this year
If I recall correctly Kieren Jack's first few games weren't much to write home about
Kade Simpson from Carlton didn't touch the ball until about his sixth game

All fair points but I think the part I was most disappointed was a few plays in the last few minutes where he didn't seem like he wanted to get stuck in. Now I'm not of the belief that all players need to be hard at it but the scoreline and situation required him to and he was happy to stand and watch while Richmond took the ball away with little pressure.

For a quick player he did not back his pace

Agree with all that. Not sold on him yet, but here's hoping he can improve

First game was ok nothing special but great experience at the MCG in
a close game.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

Didn't really see much of the ball or have an impact.

Had an opportunity with 2 minutes left where Towers pounced on a loose ball inside 50 and handballed to him. Could've been the hero had he kicked the goal but he got caught holding it which was rather disappointing.

Looks a long way off afl level

Yeah as stated previously, it seemed like a weird inclusion for Kennedy. Rose/BJ should have played. Back to the ressies with Hiscox .

 

[miggs]

Softcox

 

[DavyRed]

He may or may not end up being a dud but to label him as one and look to draw a line through his name after his very first game is pathetic.

 

[miggs]

I think the majority of us are just having fun with the name. Would be silly to write him off as ever being AFL standard

I didnt think he was soft or pulled out of any contests. Just having fun.

If I were Horse, I would've backed Jack's running skills and just said "Run everywhere, run where you think is best." At least then he would've provided another option or taken a Richmond player with him. But his footy smarts weren't up to scratch. Not a promising debut, but hopefully he learns something from it.

AFL level is a huge step up from NEAFL. Some players are able to translate it straight to seniors whilst others take some time to get used to the speed.

The club has to determine whether some players, especially those with some elite qualities, have the ability to step up or are worth persevering with. Hiscox has elite endurance.

I am not sure he demonstrated much to be honest but it was only one game. It's up to him whether he can run with it from here in the 2s, or possibly be delisted at the end of the season.

After watching game and seeing the comments I'm still unsure if he actually debuted..
