2018 VFL Rd 21: Northern Blues vs Essendon at Essendon

[Thryleon]

JGM has looked a totally different player as a key forward and has a good set shot action. Done two years on list, don't know if he's done enough to be elevated.  Certainly wouldn't elevate based on his form in defence.

If we can delist him and re rookie him I wouldn't say no.  He's tall and he shows aggression.  Some of his vfl work has been ok.

I'm told he is of good character as well.  The problem is we have plenty of tall options, and he will never be more than ordinary, but you do need those types  on your list.  In a few years Rowe will finish up and he's the only young tall who looks likely to play the gorilla minder. I'd give him one more year as a rookie but he's going to need to be pressing for selection next season.
