How often is Jack forced into taking on about 5 opposition players because we dont have anyone who can keep up with him on the overlap? It happens a lot. I think if he had some running support hed be a lot cleaner. Its not easy handballing to yourself and trying to dodge 5 people all the time. Where is the support? There isnt any.

I think you have dementia, cause this is a ridiculous thing to suggest.
I was sitting on the wing for that Carlton game, and one in particular, Loewe was 30 metres up from Harves, and 10 m in front of his opponent. Ball went 40m to Loewe's opponent.
That sort of thing happened 6 times out of 10.

Yes Jack is an ordinary kick at times and has become the turnover king! But Sydneys pressure today made our whole teams skills look ordinary. We simply couldnt match there power game and were made to looks like a VFL side. Trading Jack wont fix that, he simply need more quality support around him so he is not working out of pressure continually.

Maybe my memory is bad, Robert Harvey was quite a frustrating player in his first few years. He would hold on to the ball too long and get caught too often.
Like some players, he went into a chrysalis one preseason and emerged a champion. Couldnt be tackled, couldnt be stopped. Not too young to get bumped off it, not too old to get caught due to slowness.

Jack steven threatens to become something greater than he is. When the rest of our list muscle up and provide more grunt and power around the ground Jack steven may become that utterly punishing midfielder we hope he becomes. Acceleration can punch through packs...

Hopefully...

Perhaps he meant Anthony Harvey?
