All these people criticising jenkins, do me a favour, can you predict how many goals you think he will kick this year. I assume it would be less than thirty the way your are talking maybe even less than 20. Well, put your reputation on the line, lets see if your as expert as you think you are, not captain shit talkers and captain hindsights.

To play by my own rules: I predict he'll kick over 50 for the season.
 
He had one retaped, but didn't think he had the other retaped too.

He certainly wasn't running in top gear after landing heavily.
Yer, I saw one was a bit dodge, but just curious how a melb based richmond person is getting this info and although I appreciate info, what his motivation is for telling us.

I'm going with 46:28
 
Imo, CEY is competing for the underdone Greenwood's spot for that inside midfield rotation who pushes forward.

Gibson & Mackay competing for the 3rd wingman spot behind Atkins & Seedsman.

Forgerty should play if Tex doesn't, unless we revert back to Otten as a replacement, which I doubt given he missed JLT2.

Hampton must play as a pressure forward given both Knight & Gallucci missing. Murphy too for the same reason.

Yep.. CEY has Greenwood’s measure... greenwood looked slow and out of touch on the weekend... give him a week or two in the sanfl to get his mojo back. He’ll get it because he’s hungry.

Can’t have both mackay and Gibson in the same team... won’t work.. and on form and fitness Gibson gets the nod. Just cringe a bit when gibson gets the ball!.. although I watched the JLT2 replay last night and he wasn’t actually as bad as I first thought right after the game. It was hilarious watching the two of them in the replay of JLT2 break away and run the ball down the wing together... dodgy disposals inc... and yes, they f*cked it up and turned it over!

Fogarty instead of Otten please!!!.... just on X-factor alone!!!... Otten reminds me of doing a u-turn in my old FB Holden wagon!... beautiful wagon but slow and painful turning circle..

Murphy yes... Hampton, I love the guy but geez he’s a slow decision maker.. which sees him either get caught holding it too often or dishing it off in haste and turning it over. When he’s on though he looks smooth and silky.

I'm mates with H.Dear and spent the weekend in Adel. Interesting place is all I'm going to say..

Tipping 60 if he plays all games.

I’ll say 38. Serviceable but not enough to justify the way he plays.

I definitely think there is way too much hate put onto JJ. Every year he does this, does bugger all in the pre-season. I understand the GF hangover bitterness but he wasn't alone. I think come round 1 he'll step up, I definitely wouldn't panic unless he's still struggling by round 4-5. He is a weapon that plays a roll, everyone want him to be Wayne Carey but he sin't, he's JJ and plays to his own strengths.

If he has injuries he'll get 40, if he plays all games fully fit he'll push 60.

Jenkins should be good for 30-ish if he plays most of the season.

Putting aside hypothetical energy concerns about him this season. I think he will be hardest hit by the loss of Smith and Lever as they were our best two for creating quick transitions, and that situation was his strength. Slow kicks down the line to contests, run and handball chains, not his forte.

This is the Jenkins thread right?

I think he will get 10 playing as a KPF, 23 as a seagull and 5 from free kicks.

Meanwhile he will take 6 contested marks and lay zero defensive pressure.
 
I make one post poking fun at Coopers and that’s already two serious replies :-/

(I agree with your answer)
I think if we're not playing a ruckman against an opposition ruckman, then we are conceding the tap, every time.
So, if we're going to do that, then really do it and don't even jump for it. Just play an extra mid at ground level.

So yeah, let's do it. Let's see what happens.

Nice strawman there buddy. The amount of goals he kicks is not the problem people have with him and you know it.
 
Aside from Hart you couldn't put any of them in the conversation. Roo was good though from memory. Modra played about 8 games for 20 odd goals in 92.
The correct answer is still Ben Hart.

Which other true 1st year player as a 17 year old has been All Australian?
