Jake Aarts

I think Jake has to go back, until Tom finds some form.

in the meantime, give us a look at the heir to the Rioli dynasty,

the one and only,

Mr.J.

who was on Salem?

he was like Bachar in the '17 GF
I saw Aarts on him a fair bit early. Graham went to him about the time he'd had his 18th disposal just before half time.

Seriously Salem ripped us a new one. Reminded me of that time Sidebottom did the same from the back half.

He signed a new 5 year deal yesterday. Played like a champ.
 
Stamp Aarts paper.

Good VFL player. At present he’s taking the spot of a young player who may have a future past this season.

All our smalls struggled last night.

Over all 6 rounds I reckon Rioli's been our worst though.

He should go back to the ressies before Aarts, but they both need a rocket

Players like Aarts, Steve Morris, Jake King deserve a lot of admiration and respect. They extract the most out of their abilities and work their tails off when they play. I wish other more naturally talented players had their work ethic and team-oriented mindset. They are the heart and souls of football clubs. There is a spot potentially available as I think Aarts is a limited player but some of these more talented kids have to take it.

It may be our system of play. Can’t be coincidence that all of Castagna, Aarts and Rioli are playing badly. Nothing in the forward line seems to be working at the moment.

Morris and Kingy i knew ,but i cant comment on AArts only as an observer

Morris just kept on going , limited ability but a machine

Kingy i lost count the amount of times id get to him on the ground and he would tell me " im fuxxed" id reply " fuxxed injured, or fuxxed tired?"
then the ball was kicked towards us and he would take off again like he was fresh as

That incident with the pies where they all went after him, he was getting a drink and said " im fuxxed" im thinking he is close to the interchange he will go off,
didak ran past and kingy yells at him " hey cuxt, wanna fight? " didak was pleading with him " no . i dont want to fight you"
kingy ran straight at him and it was on lol

Can't see how Jnr couldn't produce what Aarts does.

Jake has turned himself into an AFL footballer though nothing but hard work, he will go back to the VFL and give it everything to get back.

You'd say he has no AFL qualities. (I really mean I would.) But he is very strong over the ball. Very strong when stationary because he can twist. That's his thing. Strong when stationary.

Long time hater, first time poster. There are a few more droppable atm.
