Player Watch Jack Lukosius

[PJ Power]

The delivery to him was pretty poor, but welcome to Ken Hinkley's forward structure.

It was more his response to balls dropping short or missing him. Maybe he wouldn't have been able to get to any of them, but he mostly just stuck out one hand and watched the ball sail past with a bit of an annoyed look on his face.

Not dissimilar to Finlayson's body language at times, which is the worry, although certainly not as bad. Still, I'd have thought in game 3 or whatever it was for your new club, after a loss last week, you'd be wanting to show some more intent.

Probably looked worse with the close ups on TV than at the ground.

Spot on. It was the lack of intent and the annoyance with others - rather than himself - that rung alarm bells. Three games in, when his previous involvements were a thrashing against Collingwood and solid loss to the Lions. First real opportunity to impact a game at AO in front of the fans.

I dont think anyone thought Luko was a solution to our problems. What we paid was ****ing criminal. Apparently everyone saw that but the club. Funny how often that happens.

Well half the people on here also thought the Suns were in the same contract position as they were with Bowes (who was going to put them massively over the salary cap) and thus thought we should get a first round pick with Lukosius.

So I wouldn't put much faith in what the people around here thought either.

 

[afl2004]

Could easily be an amazing get but there's a lack of concentration and toughness that just doesn't feel like he would ever be a premiership level player

 

[Powertron]

Will go down as our all time worst recruit considering we gave a shit load up to get him and paying him a bomb.

Has no ticker and clearly just goes through the motions week in week out.

Basically what Jack Watts was like for Melbourne.

Can't judge him on anything this year had 0 continuity and we all know ken loves playing under done players.

He is like no different to Finlayson. Like even the same effort levels

Watts for his faults, I felt tried.

 

[The Hobo]

Injured again.. No idea what

Yeah but Finlayson we gave up what, a fifth rounder? And he would be on a league average contract at best. He’s provided more value than the cos, especially early on.

Luko will be in our top 10 paid players and we gave up a top 10 pick for the pleasure of his half arsed effort. We’ll regret it for years.

 

[ClintEastwood]

Overpaid, underperforming, soft, injury-prone.

Great recruiting Kenny.

 

[Powerade 08]

His set shots when it matters are worse than Westhoff.

He is the worst of Finlayson and Westhoff. What a pickup.

 

[all seeing eye]

Hardwick knew.

 

[Finest of Wines]

Weak as piss

 

[KenGaveUsWhatHeDeserved]

disappointing because he obviously has talent

but wow what a lazy dud

I thought finlayson was bad for that. wow

how bad is he??!!

no wonder Hardwick drive him to the airport

AND they get our 1st round due pick

FMD

 

[240volt]

Weak as piss

I’m laughing but I honestly couldn’t have put it better.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Hardwick knew.

More than that, he basically told the whole world that Luko ain't it and we still coughed up a Kings ransom for him

 

[PJ Power]

Fulfilling the fears of most of us.

 

[Rash]

Flop

 

[Windy Cindy]

Not sure why people are surprised.. he’s one of the laziest and softest footballers.

If Damien hardwick doesn’t rate ya.. ya no good, but hey why not pass over a first rounder for him..

Cos he's Connor's bestie.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Jack Pookosius

 

[rumoursofwinter]

It's okay. He's only contracted on huge coin till the end of 2030.

 

[Hopam002]

The output thus far has been terrible. I would be playing Finlayson and adding Jack to the list of people who get an early start to the preseason

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

I'm actually still disgusted over him not shepherding Georgiades goal attempt.

Both so incredibly selfish and lazy

 

[FishingRick04]

Let's see next year, hopefully he's another Doreen
