    Was sensational.

    If given the quick delivery to an open forward line you get from most other teams, would be kicking 5-6 per match on current form.

    Absolutely. Little bit frustrating that they didn't play him forward earlier in the year while O'Loughlin was out.

    Will be an absolute gun if he keeps working hard.

    His goal from the boundary line was superb.

    The guy is going to be GOOD, VERY GOOD.

    Is going to be a very marketable player i reckon.

    I hope he takes the shots. He's the FF for heaven's sake. I was annoyed when ROK and McVeigh screamed at him to play on which then caused the hesitation and then the play on call in what was a very clogged up F50.
    THis happened twice prior to him nailing that shot. I'm not sure he is completely confident in himself yet in terms of when to take the set shot but I look forward to him pointing at the goals and having a go from a wider angle when there isn't a better and more importantly risk-free option inboard.

    Good on the young fella!

    Certainly a nice end to the season. Sounds like Tom Swift had a ripper of a game for the Wiggles, but he is eligible next season. So just rewards to Jesse for a solid 6 or so weeks of footy. (And nice to see the nominations aren't completely limited to "Rising Stat Accumulators".
