Harry said:Is a player. There was one passage of play where he received a hot handpass from houli and instead of taking possession and being tackled by neale-bullen he tapped the ball over the opponents head with his left hand, took possession with his right, spun, absorbed the tackle and calmly dished off releasing houli to run free.
Bill James said:Yes after watching Houli, Conca, Ellis and Short for years, its refreshing to have Ross and Stack in the side who can take the heat, win contested balls and compete in the air all with a lack of panic.
Footballers!

Brimmy said:Jack Ross is all class,a footballers footballer,who incidentally doesn’t turn 19 for another 4 months.
Talk about upside,this kid could be anything.
A lesser player would have let go,Jack held on and popped his shoulder,hope it doesn’t bugger his career, he’s got plenty of upside and I’d like to think he’ll be a 150 Game player for the Tigers.craig said:Hopefully he is has better durability than Jackie Graham.
Both of these kids along with RCD and Stackman smashing into the opposition for the next few years will be good to watch.
