Was looking over the early stuff in the Laverde thread and came across chat about comparisons to Stringer from back in 2016/2017.
I liked saladin’s post and then HAP’s reply about Jake needing to do the work is a thumbs up to the Essendon coaches to get Jake to lift his work rate to play on ball more.
anyway, just sharing
Stringer’s pretty happy with himself IMO, celebrates an over the back goal to put them 45 up like few others.
you’d expect a 190ish forward to lead long hard and often. The buzz on him was always that he’d end up in midfield but i haven’t seen much to suggest he would have the work rate to cope.
