Port could have 19 players on the field but we’d be ok as the umps wouldn’t count Jed as a player
The madness of using him as a sub, very strange.

You can never escape once you’re a member of the Jed cult
Clearly.
You just know Ken is thinking we lost because of not playing Jed and Charlie.

Make that two touches
It was only a quater and a bit. If he'd played the whole game it would've been 8 touches and -16 metres gained.
It's not Jed's fault.
The only players that succeed under this coach are those with exceptional natural talents.
Every premiership team has players in the 16-28 on the list bracket that are just good honest triers. The difference in those teams is that there is a coaching plan that defines the roles they play in a useful manner, and you can change out those bottom half players as needed and trust that the next guy in is going to play the role. We've never had that and it's one of the reasons why the supporter group has so much angst about selection of the worst player on the team. When Jed has had his turn (and it's definitely been long enough to show he isn't an AFL player at this point) the next guy will be exactly the same.
Realistically, any player on an AFL list should be able to come in and play forward pocket, get 10-15 touches, hold down their opposition player and average a bit above a goal a game. Instead we play to a crowded forward line with multiple stoppages so it becomes an extension of the midfield and the forwards get squeezed out. You need to be Chad Wingard or Robbie Gray to stand out. He made multiple AA and top 5 Brownlow finisher Travis Boak look like a plodder in a similar role.
Ken continues to set these pointless positions that seem to serve no useful role in improving our chance of winning and relies on individual brilliance of players to break through his hand brake to win games.

He's an honest battler but he has no attributes what so ever. If your going to be small you need to either be fast or have crumbing ability/elite skills/goal sense. He has none of these.
They drafted a few small forwards in the recent draft so in sure they are aware he isnt a long term propsect. Think it wont be long before Anastasopoulos cements himself.

Oh heck off.
I know it's not his fault and he doesn't select himself but I can't help but be mad.
Worst gold pass player in our history.
What's more rare than him kicking a goal is actually winning a free kick from a rundown tackle

Have said this before and will no doubt say it again. The pressure forward is the biggest myth in footy. In modern AFL you need physical attributes if you arent an accumulator. This guy is nothing, he is the most vanilla footballer ive seen. Nothing against him, i respect he is an honest battler but at this point it shows the incompetency of our coaches and selection panel.

I can’t fathom why Hinkley dropped him last week. His job isn’t to kick goals or win possessions. It’s to apply that mythical type pressure that only Hinkley and the Jedheads can see. Or maybe Hinkley is starting to think that mythical pressure isn’t enough
How could a mere mortal such as yourself have any comprehension of the mysterious mind of a master coach.

Jed if you're reading this do not take it personally but I think you should develop your all round game a little bit more. You'll be at risk of being dropped, perhaps instantly, but you will win a lot of fans here for trying to be anything capable of being an elite footballer.

lol calling him an honest battler is actually being extremely kind.

Good advice that - trying to be good. I wonder if he's considered it before?
