The comparisons to Danger are completely unfair ... Dangerfield gave us 7 years at 100%.
Lever is closer to Gunstan, taking his huge potential to another club.
I like how Jake plays, he is a different style of defender ... but he won't make the difference to a premiership or not. No single player does, but the difference between an elite mid / forward and a young zone-off intercept marking style player is pretty big ... especially in terms of what they should cost. If Jake wants to earn the biggest dollars, he needs more than potential to demand it imo.
I was a little bit thrown by Jake's attitude to being left out of the final last year in 2015 ... it's one thing to be disappointed (completely understandable), but he seems to be hanging onto it pretty hard. Was a little bit of a red flag for me on attitude. "What about me" or "Do you know who I am" style thinking.
Personally, I want Greenwood and McGovern signed up first ... and some seriously good offers given to the big names floating around out there.
I'll take Jake, he is way above average, but not for the prices that are being bandied about ... no way. Felt the same way about Gibbs.
