He is no where near the level of Coughlan. We quickly forget how good Coughlan was.
Thats the Dogs and Deez game plan in a nutshell big bodies inside getting it out to the Road Runners outside and off to the races.
"Clarkey, get us another kid like Jack Ross, but good this time."
Do NOT ever put Ross and Coughlan in the same sentence. Coughlan would have been a 300 gamer and captain of the Tigers. Injuries crueled. I had Cogs on the same level as Voss.
What i saw today from Ross was inexcusable. I can take the lack of pace or odd crappy disposal but he pulled out of 4 contests today. 4 in one game. Most blokes do 1 a game. Egg gets criticised for the same thing and Ross played scared. Ive seen enough. Trade, trade and trade

You asked for it
Being played out of position he’s an inside mid any chance he gets a game there?
Think we tried that before and it was the same lack of speed issue. Worth another look with his gut running ability & it hasn’t worked with him playing high half forward anyway.
I wonder why we haven’t tried Graham & Ross into midfield roles & Cotchin/Edwards forward - especially with the issue of locking the ball inside 50.
jack Graham made a pretty strong case to be shifted onto the VFL tonight.
looked leg and brain slow.
could be carrying something?
I reckon $hai is too
This. He's just not the same player of early 2019 for some reason. Chalk and cheese.
Heh heh. jack Ross has demonstrated nowhere near the talent to play AFL midfield. Some would argue that hes not much good at VFL midfield.
Inside grunt delusion at AFL level? He can't get a kick.
Dimma gave him a loose HBF gig last week and in a winning side Ross was adequate. (I liked the rugged moment.) He got the ball and sent it forward.
01 Aug 2021 I thought Ross was ok. He was given a chance to play back pocket to HBF was ok. Disposal errors? He'll hve them. But at crucial times I thought he was good.
No, he's not there yet but Jack Ross played some winning ball at winning times imo. A well coached player. Battling and levelling uo.

I think there’s no doubt he’s an inside mid.
However inside mids are an endangered species in this current evolution of the game.
Transitional mids is where the game is at now as Fremantle demonstrated yesterday.
Unfortunately for us we’ve loaded up heavily with inside players we hope replaces Cotch. Ross isn’t Cotch level. Nowhere near it but few are.
After yesterday I really hope rumours of Cerra are true..

Either he plays midfield or the kid request to be traded.
Wingman he is not.
Thise last 5 minute efforts though in the last could have put a cross through him.
