Wrong Carter imo. Ross is a better player than that.
It is an opinion, not up for debate. I just don’t agree with you.

Haaarrrgh. Look out, the night carter has lifted the lid n the dunny budgies have gone frantic.
Asked this question of someone else in a different thread, but it's worthy of asking again. Who n how many in the senior side the last few weeks has AFL standard kicking??? Butchered ourselves out of a few victories in recent weeks n none of it was Rossy's fault.
Wrong...........Jack's disposal stacks up well.........very well, against his teammates, and he's getting better.

You are a dull, slow-witted individual like many on here.
Time and again this guy has been promoted (because our depth is ordinary) and time and again he has not helped us win.
The club obviously sees his flaws because a) he takes zero risk by hand or foot and b) he cannot secure a regular berth despite a spate of injury.
When are you and others going to wake up?
The guy is a depth player at best and will not be taking us anywhere.
Why is it so hard for everyone?
In a year where speed of ball movement has never been greater, you have Ross who receives the ball and … neatly delivers by hand to someone five metres away.
Or he takes a little 15m dart pass that gets us nowhere fast.
Dustin Martin has a lowish DE but these stats have little to do with how the game unfolds on any given day.
Please let’s not rely on DE when talking about Ross.
Ok, he must've got lucky today when he laced out McDonagh with a 40 metre pass for a goal, or when he kicked a goal himself from outside 50

So Taranto is all silk mate. I reckon JRoss actually is a much better kick than him and quite a few others who are getting picked weekly.
Far better that he uses precise medium distance disposals to put team mates into time n space rather than our senior nuffies pin pointing opposition players with long distance dump kicks or dish off scrubby half metre hand passes that simply put the receiver under extreme pressure in heavy traffic.
Rossy might never elevate above general role playing hole filler on the list, but there's jobs he could be doing now far better than some entrenched in the seniors just now.
Sad thing about comments like this, is that over the years there's been a constant stream of us expert fans making these same sort of comments about Grigga, Bash, Towner, KMac, Presty, Nank, Short, George, Soldo, Nigel, Rossy, Raaalllph, etc etc during stages of their careers. It never stops n more often than not it's simply just wrong.
Every era there's a handful of players that are premium elite, a big bunch of players that are very good and an even bigger bunch of players that are moderately competent at AFL level and make up the bulk of most teams each year.
The game itself will sort out the wheat from the chaff, then the coaches simply try to make the best use they can of the entire mix that they have. They get it right they chase flags, get it wrong n they collect spoons n chase new jobs.
You didn’t see Juddy Clarke jump out of the way of Papley last week ? Suggest you watch the 3rd Q again where Papley ran through the pack in the goal square
And he gets a game again and Ross doesn’t ? Oh boy !
I think it’s the price of nursing cotch to 300. I don’t like it.
Good post. I got Grigg wrong but he got a great go at it and was given plenty of time.
I reckon I’m still right about Nigel won’t make it ha ha.. Same with Hugo
I think Ross is being treated unfairly, basically reemed and people still see the shortcomings that were there, and refuse to see his improvement and development against the odds eg. In/out and played in awkward positions
