You know if Jamar doesn't get up this week...

[Bartram_Class]

Then we will go in with a starting ruck duo of John Meesen and Jeff White.

I don't think we'd win a hit-out.

Two weeks of gastro ?

We're not so lucky.

 

[Dez!]

It's already been said that he will return this week.

And ofcourse we would a hit-out, White is top notch when it comes to winning hit-outs whether they go to our players or not is another story.

 

[McLean_4_Captain]

I still dont even think Mees would get a game, i'd say they'd get Martin to back up white.

 

[Headless]

And then if Meesen gets hit by a truck...

White and... SPENCER?

Ideally, the club would get 15k worth of damages from the Meesen collision in order to promote The Spence.

Jeff Whites has the most hitouts out of all the Ruckman from 1986 - Present

Yes and he was the reason that they changed the rules and added the rucking circle. Ever since then he's never been the same. He's always relied on his leap, he's getting old and losing his leap. The time has come

Thankyou very much Jeffrey Newman White, your services have been greatly appreciated. Time to considered coaching or commentating

 

[dunkarob]

if jeff white plays again im out of here, there is no way this bloke deserves a game, whelan would be a better ruckman, piss of white give a kid a go

 

[davey_magik]

If this somehow did eventuate happened Dean Cox would set all kinds of records.

cox will dominate, but if jamar was to play i feel we would have the better of the tap outs and then its upto midfield to take there chances.
no jamar, no hope in middle

 

[Flashhh]

...makes my supercoach captain choice easy

 

[Dez!]

...makes my supercoach captain choice easy

Oh yeah, I'm a chance to get 3000 with Cox getting 500 and doubling because he's captain.

 

[Supermercado]

I'd like to see Meesen get a game just to prove that he's a legitimate player and not a practical joke.

lol I'll pay that one

Yeah I must admit I'm with Super on this one, even if he stinks I just want to see him play at least one game.

Just so he can be added to the list of 'worst players to play for Melbourne', doesnt qualify playing for Sandy.

 

[demonfan9]

It'll be like 426 all over again.

 

[cannons]

Meesen is the next great ruckman of our generation.

(Its difficult to distinguish tone and intonation on the internet, isn't it?)

Is there anyone on here that is holding out hope for Big Meese?

He's 21, ruckman take longer to fully realise their potential, see PJ, Jamar, hell even our older guys who have left: Simmonds, Jolly. If by 2010 he hasn't shown definate signs of improvement then maybe he's not the one.
BUT I'm prepared to put my head on the block and say this guy will turn good soon enough.

If Chris Johnson can return from the dead and earn a spot, surely this athletic giant pansy can do the same.

I can understand that in terms of contesting at bounces/marks etc...but from all reports (Andy Lovell weekly update thingy) its his workrate which is the issue..

 

[Supermercado]

Print out a Centerlink Dole form and tape it to the inside of his locker. That should fire anybody's workrate up.

Even adelaide gave him 2 games after almost 3 years on their list at the end of last year. They didn't even bother letting him play out the year and he was dropped for the last round.

Pretty sure it was at about that time they figured out what he was all about and knew that they were making a killing when we offered pick 37

Yeah, no doubt about that. I'm not saying he has earnt a spot or even warrants one in the senior side. It is more a curiosity thing as I haven't seen him play and one game isn't going to kill us - surely. TBH if he can't get a go now I can't see it happening ever. Not looking good for the Meese. So we have him under contract for next year and then we can delist/trade?

Nice work Super.
