Yep, good luck to him, his best was better than many on here (or other fora) seem to remember - apparently, dodgy ankles never helped his cause (and yes, perhaps a slightly dodgy ticker too...).

Slightly unrelated but on the FF issue. I can see Kennedy becoming a big full forward in 5-6 years. He has a big frame, a great set shot kick and has great contested marking skills.
Wasn't expecting that.
Bye Jessie... you're a good lad.
Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.
Good luck to the kid. Maybe a move to Melbourne would be best for him, I know it will definitely help his clothing line...
I am not sure how many of you watched the 2's this year. Jessie was in great form the last half of the year. Looked like a real footballer and rucked entire games by himself. His problem early was he got a game because of his size not his form. I would have liked to see him get a game at the end of this year when his form was very good and warranted selection. Unfortunately for him his timing was terrible as the firsts were in great form and settled. I wouldn't be sad if a trade is not found. He is only 24.
I saw the last quarter of the North game in Round 5 where Jessie played. the commentators said he had done some nice things during the game but in the last quarter he looked lazy and was caught behind. Took an eternity to move the ball on. I think his only spot is in the ruck where he doesn't have to think about leading for the ball or having a constant opponent on him. Good luck to him. His age and size almost guarantees a trade for him. Most clubs are looking for his type, and most clubs are short of his type.
I was desperate to keep him when BBBBH "left". As I saw him as the great white hope, and he had a good game against Carlton.
Leading strongly, marking, kicking goals.
But, alas, that was the last I saw of that Jesse White.
Good luck to him!!
I was about to say that! Young Naismith looks ok and the other young fella they brought in wasn't too bad either. They could be Rookie listed as just in casers and developed. I would rather start developing young blokes now when we have three who can do the job and not wait a few years and try to get an experienced guy.
