#25 - Jaxon Prior

No, I don’t think he cops it unfairly.
Arguably others cop it disproportionately to what they deserve, but looking across threads there aren’t many missing out on a serve this week.
I think recent comments are an indictment, he is a “try hard” without the talent or ability to garner anything other than derision.
At best he is that wannabe tough guy, that you stop, look at, then crack up laughing, because he is so far off it, you know it’s kind of embarrassing.
When a guy like him deserves to stay in the team, you know the bank balance is tapped out.

But kudos to him for trying.

why do we have him on the wing? is this jake kelly 2.0?

You can have your Darcy’s, Liberatore’s and your Daicos’s and shove it!

It warms the cockles of my heart to know we have Jaxon Prior fulfilling the legacy of his old man Michael each and every weekend by donning the sash.

Imagine he goes back to a defensive post now Redman is down for a month at least.

He cracks in which is more than you can say for 90% of our players.

He BOG Average, a VFL standard player and is making our other players look bad. Not because he is playing well, but because they are playing so ■■■■.

Another example of another clubs garbage becoming our garbage

Served a purpose as break glass in Brisbane but now’s a best 23 yeah

Same as fiorini served a purpose them moved on when use by date was up

he can crack in all he wants he is not good enough to play on the wing, can have him at HB but not the wing.. skillful players play on wings, not spuds who can give some effort

You’re speaking like that’s a bad thing…

I find it hard to blame Prior much, because he doesn’t select himself. Effort is not an issue with him, he’s just quite clearly not a good enough footballer for the AFL. A complete indictment the coach and club disagree.

Tonight was his best game in the red and black

Thought he was awful. Lost too many 1v1s

Some good, a lot bad. No idea how he kept getting crossmatched on their tallest guys but geez he didn’t do much in those situations

Dark days when this guy is our best player

These are the players that replaced the 39 .

Other teams rubbish becomes our rubbish on the premise hey he came from a good team

He’s a plodder, wouldn’t get a game at any other club. Under Scott he’s ingrained in the club because there are a 1000 other probems.

It makes sense because he’s one of the least essingtoned players out there.

Caldwell & Durham both having 5 disposals each is the real indictment.

He was good today. Will never be great but played his best game in the sash for sure. I hope he’s not actually injured
