Jesse White has requested a trade

[AlibiMonday]

I have no doubt Sydney will try their best to make sure he lands up where he wants to be. What's he worth and who is interested?

I'm having trouble thinking of someone who has been less impressive than him in recent years.

Rookie or pick 200 I'd have thought. Maybe the Blues

 

[Oliver Dickson]

Dees can have him, they love picking up reserve players...
if not pick 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 in the rookie draft!

 

[Hard_to_Beat]

He's probably better off having a season at a VFL club and seeing if he can catch someones eye.

 

[Smiley Boy]

I would love him at my club!

...........Said no one ever

I guess I'd prefer him over Raph Clarke

 

[Danair]

Woah Woah, one at a time guys!

 

[Tulip]

Send him to Sydney, they always resurrect careers..

 

[Eastern Rangers]

I don't like tatoes.

 

[Suma Magic]

Worth a rookie, but would he be interested in playing for rookie wages? Maybe someone will put him their list, but I don't think Sydney would get anything of value. Maybe around 60 or something?

Would Sydney delist him if no one bites?

 

[legend166]

We'll take a packet of Burger Rings.

In all seriousness though, according to Reserves watchers he had somewhat of a resurgence in the second half of the year as a second ruck/forward type rather than just a forward. If a club was totally desperate for that kind of player he might be worth a punt for a pick 90 or something.

 

[FIGJAM]

Unless he's cooking crystal blue meth, I see very little value in recruiting him.

 

[jokiKan]

Would Sydney delist him if no one bites?

No, as of right now he would be a much needed depth player. Seaby is probably on the way out and we need a backup ruckman to Mummy/Pyke.

 

[Faz 2000]

I recall watching this guy ruin Carlton for about a quarter and a half in 2009 (he kicked 4 that day), thinking "wow, this guy can really play!".

And yet... apparently... no he can't.

 

[jo172]

Out of curiosity, wasn't his last contract obscenely large to keep him out of reach of the expansion clubs?

Would take him as a rookie/late pick if Shaun McKernan wanted to leave.

In a ten goal loss playing on Hartlett who was slow and with a history of bad hamstrings.

Big guys who can mark, kick goals and turn their opponents around in the AFL enough to kick 4 goals in a half are rare - right? I mean we are foaming at the mouth for someone who can do that.

It just seems that Jesse White is not that guy.

 

[jackess]

GWS for a season or 2?

 

[Geddy Lee]

I don't like tatoes.

Or spelling.

You're thinking of Walter Pinkman...

No, unfortunately he has a year left on his contract.

 

[Danair]

You're thinking of Walter Pinkman...

You're thinking of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman

Congratulations on your exceptional joke-getting ability.

How's Simon Buckley going?

Trust me, Swans fans were foaming at the mouth after that performance too. He's got every athletic attribute you could ask for but just can't bring it all together.
