Ultimate Glory Welcome to Hawthorn, Jaeger O'Meara

[BigLittleHawk]

He said himself its jay-ger

Not to be picky, but do you mean he'd like he's name pronounced Jay-gar?
I'm assuming so, but I could understand if he preferred Jay-ger, because he is, or will be our equivalent to a Hollywood star.

 

[Buckemenico]

At Hawks Family day, he told the guy next to me when asked, that his name is Jay-ger but that the guy could say Yay-ger, he didn't really care. I had a quick chat and he strikes me as a guy who is very clear in who he is, what he wants to achieve and he is not too fussed what other people say or think. He also struck me as a very ambitious confident man and has future captain written all over him.

Just heard the radio call him Yager O'Mara

WAtching youtube clips I've heard O'Meara universally... but people call him Jager, Jaggar, Jaegar. Wish people would make up their minds!

I do know people who go by O'Mara with his spelling. No idea really.

Well if this preseason stuff is anything to go by we'll be happy he's with us.

I'll say this now, he's gonna get tagged all season...

As he should be.

 

[wizzard400]

As he should be.

So should I pick him in fantasy then?

 

[Kuuz]

He looks a ripper. 7 clearances and classy as hell around the ball.

Still needs match fitness, but this is as good as we could hope for at this stage. IMO better than we could have hoped for.

Russell and his team are working miracles again.

Repeat the mantra, he's missed 2 years lower expectations, he's missed 2 years lower expec ... it's not working. He looks so damn good.

The focus on him is identical to Dangerfield
Will be interesting to see if the umpires follow suit
If he gets the danger treatment he should get 50 votes (given he can actually hit a target)

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Come at him bro!

 

[Tomohawks]

Wow, just wait until he gets rid of the rust!

 

[The Lemon]

Where was he between late in the 2nd and mid last qtr?

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

I know this is a thread for fapping, but anyone else think his ball drop could improve a tad, as could Burton's?

Just something that might enable him to match Lethal's 8 Crimmins medals.

He actually isnt a great kick, not very penetrating, i think just about his only weakness i've seen. Spot on, ball drop not great, doesn't guide it onto the boot with right hand.

Geez, picking nits I would think especially playing his second game in 2 years. Be patient as he is still getting rid of the rust.

Thanks for agreeing. Was expecting to get slaughtered.

His hand positioning doesn't look right for mine and he drops it a little too high.

Wasn't Shakey implying that he was off the field during that time?

 

[Mr Lizard]

pretty sure Shakey was implying it's still too early to deload with conviction.

 

[The Lemon]

Exactly.

 

[threesixpio]

Deluded if we think he will even get on the field and make a contribution
