I'm pretty sure Jesse White kicked 4 of 5 goals against Geelong in his first game with Collingwood in a practice match.

He pulled a Jetta and gave Simmo a piece of his mind, never played a game for us since.
I reckon he's destined to be an absolute star. Will end up being a huge black mark on Simmo's coaching career come the end of this season imo.

lol shit forgot about him. How many doofus key forwards have Collingwood gone through eh? White, Chris Dawes, Leigh Brown, Cloke, Lynchy, Mason Cox…
Jack Anthony.
TBH Chris Tarrant was actually a good player for collingwood for a few years and an incredibly underrated defender in his last few years at freo. I thought he was genuinely unlucky not to pick up AA honours as a defender.
I know, i just like to bring up another freo trade failure.

Actually Brander played in the final round of the season last year.
I suspected that the relationship went sour and the club decided they didn't want to deal with him anymore.
They should've taken the emotion out of out it, instead seeing him as a commodity and trying to maximise his trade value.

I'm sorry, but this doesn't compute...
I kept getting told repeatedly that Brander couldn't play as a forward. The collective genius of Bigfooty has failed me. Say it ain't so!

He was at least 5th down the pecking order for tall forwards so he was turned into a winger because Simmo wanted to fit him into the AFL side.
On the other hand, how were we to know he was even one when they didn't even play much in that position at WAFL level.
Despite in the past the club saying they wanted players to have dual positions, they've been too narrow in shoehorning players into the roles that the club believes they fit into or that the club requires.

Surprised nothing about this guy yet. Only played half a game but 7 disposals, 1 turnover and 0.1. Interesting to see how his real games go.

His only chance of getting a look in is if they go tall for tall now Pruess is suspended.. otherwise RIccardi and Himmelberg are their tall forwards…
Soft as butter.

Thread should probably die now with Dixon's emergence.
Should never have been created.
Imagine crying because we no longer have Brander on the list. Wowee.
EDIT: Although, to be fair, it was created to keep those weirdos out of all the other threads. As you were.

It was probably only really made for one poster in particular really.
Jarrod gets a mention in this AFL.com.au article: ON THE OUTER: Why can't he get a game for your club?
His VFL stats aren't too bad. Unsurprisingly he has been played all over the park: - Jarrod Brander
He hasn't got it going in his opportunities at the senior level, however. Was the medi sub in his last game in round 14. Four of his five games have been losses. The only win was against us. Probably his best game.
I think he has just the one year contract?

With the exodus of stars (Taranto etc) GWS will be wrapped to have Brander want to stay.
Assume they give him another year at least.
Huge black mark
