WOOF welcomes Lachie Jaques to the Whitten Oval

[hujsh]

On BF they're more mad that they've not traded up to get a ruck or KPF, one or two a bit upset Lachie didn't last

Very interesting... which of these are good? Without percentiles IDK how to tell what's a good score (aside from 2km that's good I think)

So athletically not outstanding but not bad?

That's they way I read it. Plenty of upside in a good system.

[Dry Rot]

We seem to have drafted three good kickers.

Cats are probably furious that he didn't slide to 42

I hope they are.

There'll be a hit piece in the media about how unjust it was to Geelong that we didn't let him slide to them.

I met Lachie a few weeks ago and was impressed by his maturity and character.

He said one of his toughest games was playing on Joe Berry, who is the type of tricky forward we struggle to combat. I liked that.

His coach commended his kicking and willingness to back himself.

As a leader he was a well-respected co-captain of Falcons. They lost an important member of their club over summer, and did an incredible job to pull together and finish top of the ladder.
