Jeff White Dropped - Correct Decision?

[Bartram_Class]

What do you reckon?

For me, I'm not too disappointed it. Jamar may be a category 1 dud but he's younger than Jeff White and we have to find out at some stage whether he's worth keeping on.

For me, it better news to see PJ named as the No. 1 ruck, about time too.

It upsets me because I have so much faith in Jeffery but after much consideration it was probably the right decision. Time to find a new favourite player...

 

[Pipefitter]

We seem to find out more about our ruckman once they move clubs (Simmonds, Jolly) as they have always lived in his shadow. Lets play Jamar and PJ for the rest of the year and see if they have what it takes. What have we got to lose anyways?

 

[CaptainDavey]

So we're officially adding Jeffery to the scrap heap? I guess that means...

Neitz
Yze
White
Holland
Weetra
Newton...?
Carroll

I reckon it is.

I just don't think his attitude has been good enough during the course of this season. Good player, but he's not shown anywhere near his best footy so far.

 

[StingaArmstrong]

He hasn't been awful, but he's really struggled to impact games in the last couple of years. Needs to do more to influence the game, rather than being a linkman through the middle.

If he's still got it in him he'll bounce back and play out the rest of the season. If he hasn't? Well you'd better hope that Naitanui justifies being the top pick.

Well, I'm hoping Meesen can show something. If White isn't going to be in the senior team, I don't want Jamar taking that spot away from him. I think this shows a clear desire to work towards the future, and in all honesty I'm not sure Jamar is the best man to work towards that future. On the other hand, I'm not sure Meesen is either, however he has a greater span for improvement than Jamar.

In any case, we are working towards Naitanui in a big way. Regardless of where Naitanui goes, I don't think he'll have the most immediate impact, he'll require some time, as will Morton.
