Peel Thunder - 2016

[stax on the mull]

Agree , I think we are assessing his attitude for another season, also see how sigvani Johnson injury hold up , with retirement in mind. If perform worth a spot in freo line up for 2017 or rookie list

Sorry meima, but you put far too many words into this line. Drop 'are' or 'his' or 'for' - or all three. Still makes sense. Yes!

 

[Superkoops]

Leroy Jetta banned for 12 months due the the ASADA bans.

Thanks Essendon.

Bit of loss no doubt. He had a late start to last pre-season for provisional suspension.

Correct me if I'm wrong - isn't Leroy Jetta originally from South Fremantle? If that is the case then his absence will open up cap points for Peel.

I wouldn't see Jetta as a leader but the depth outside the Fremantle seconds is critical.

 

[DannyTheDoorman]

Who will lead them? There's a reason Peel need their own listed players, I think there is plenty of harm done.

What harm has been done to Peel from CAS Decision to suspend Essendon only one player (Leroy Jetta Ex Essendon is involved albeit he plays well for Peel) ?.

Hope some good report today from you and other, especially regarding our young player. Understand training watcher don't fancy them fighting their way into freo line up so supporting peel is the only way they gain confidence.

being that he played 95 odd games and was in the AFL system for 8 years, Peel VC, it's a big leadership loss for the young peel players.

Not sure about off field, but to be honest I never saw any on real signs of on-field leadership from Jetta.

Great little player and goal sneak, but not sure I would class him as a leader.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

I feel sorry for Jetta

Hird - take these injections

Dank - they are perfectly harmless

Then Jetta gets delisted and now suspended because of the Essendon hierarchy.

On the money and never defended that hard, do the crime face the time.

Whilst I'm sure that Jetta is now regretting that he took whatever Essendon was flogging I am a little sick of the constant "hard done by" line peddled by the former Essendon Players.
Crowley did not escape when his wife gave him something and his defense was the same. "I did not know what was in that pill". The rule is consistently applied. A player is always 100% responsible for what goes into his body. Other wise you make a mockery of anti doping. Oh "my doctor made me take it" is like "the dog ate my homework". Performance enhancing/improved recovery is against the laws and spirit of the game. So allowing anyone who says "my wife", "my doctor", "my friend" to get off will only make a path for people to performance enhance with impunity.
Besides, Essendon players are, like all other players, lectured by ASADA on this aspect. The players were asked to sign waivers (should have been a warning right there IMO) and then lied in writing to ASADA about taking additional medication. No the Essendon players knew what they were doing was at best at the edge of the law and at worst illegal. No sympathy here.
The biggest surprise IMHO about this whole Essendon is how far the AFL was and still is willing to go to protect and indemnify Essendon from prosecution and bad consequences.
I told everyone that I through the players would get 2-3 yrs. I even said that the AFL would be spinless and that WADA would make sure that this happened. I just think Essendon is dam lucky that WADA did not pursue them for systemic doping which could have had the club removed from the competition for up to 3 years.

Rory O' Brien has been cleared to Peel with Dylan Winton moving to EF.

Peel always pragmatic in these trades doing what is best for football and the players.

They're a bit different over at Moss St so you can expect weird names and weird everything. Wouldn't happen at the Bullies .

 

[Kram]

Have to try and make it to a couple of games this year again when I'm up in Perf.

 

[yakamoto]

Would that be Jesse Crayeratyrougn?

Spot on.

Guys like Jetta and Brandon Lee from East Perth are the ones you should feel sorry for.

These players were border line selections and had to do whatever it takes to get a game.
It is easy for a guy like Zaharakis to say no because he knew that he wouldn't be delisted.

Im not saying Essendon said take this or you're delisted (though you never know), but borderline players live in the constant fear of losing their spot on the list so generally will do what they are told.

I know people like to whack the players in this debacle but they are taught from the day they are drafted to follow orders from above.
They are also pumped full of info by the AFL that the only ones you can trust are your club.

Whilst the suspension is the right outcome I still feel the players are deserving of some understanding.

I saw Jesse at the Rubens concert in Freo a few weeks ago so he is still in town.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

I'm soooo excited for this season.

Can't wait to see Weller, Blakely and Langdons further development. Also super excited to see both Tucker and Balic. Tucker has looked slick during training with great composure and poise.

It's almost like Freo are recruiting specific types of players so they won't have to do.a mini rebuild or a major ine unlike most clubs.

Yeah mate I think.they will be slightly stronger as long as injuries don't take a toll.

Peel had games where Muz was playing though.

I'm just happy that I get to watchthe young guns play as a team each week.
