SOS has stunk it up for at least the last half dozen games now.
Yes - he gives his all, yes - he’s being asked to play out of position, yes - he’s CFC royalty, but seriously, we’ve all been bleating for the last 20 years that certain players seemed to be untouchable (think no. 1 draft picks) and that this culture of complacency was ruining the club. Now, FINALLY, Voss is putting it out there - near enough is not good enough. I’m loving it.
LP’s posts on the subject are spot on. It’s all about the team. Let the teenage girls have their Twitter meltdowns. I’m here for the premierships.
Really?
At 194cm and 91kg, Jack has competed strongly against much larger ruckmen; he conceded 12cm and 21kg to Preuss. Despite that, over the last half a dozen games he has won 25 hitouts, kicked 4 goals (same as Durdin), had 35 score involvements, 27 inside 50s, 20 tackles (6 inside 50), 14 clearances, 10 intercepts, 12 1%ers and gained 1750 metres. I don't think any of our forwards can match him over all of those facets of the game.
I get why he has been omitted but he has consistently been among our better players all season, including the last half dozen games.
