Geez Spud Carroll is a dud commentator, still prefer him to Ennis though.
He gets away with playing in a dinner suit in the juniors because he is so smart they hardly lay a hand on him. It will be interesting to see if he is tough enough to handle the attention he'll get in seniors.Probably no hope of getting him back out of the Melbourne system but Pezet is a talent.
Well if it makes it any better. His dad is a top class flog?Keely was our best, followed by Bryan and Bradbury. Hampson didn't get many chances to stand out in a beaten side.
Pezet is a guy I'd like to forget ever played for the Knights.
Pezet has it on a string. Geez how did this guy walk out the door with the dross that’s at the club currently.
That will do it then. Should of gave his old man the Andre treatment.Club sacked his dad.
I assume that's about Jonah Pezet.Club sacked his dad.
I assume that's about Jonah Pezet.
I don't think the decision for Jonah to go to Melbourne was about anything other than what was best for Jonah. His Dad probably made the decision, but it looks like it was a good one for the kid.
We knew he was the real deal and the Knights bent over backwards to keep him.
I don't know every player to ever make the emerging Blues camp, but I suspect Jonah was the youngest ever. The Emerging Blues often have guys who are already regular firstgraders, and Jonah was there when he was playing SG Ball a year young. After his great year in Mathews he was too young to play Flegg, but he became Scott Dureau's shadow and was training with our Flegg side. In fact, when our Flegg side was warming up for a game, Dureau and Jonah Pezet were running the drills.
Melbourne gave Pezet a development deal and put him into Flegg as soon as he was old enough. This year his peers at the Knights were playing SG Ball and Pezet was in his second year of Flegg and Captain of the Melbourne side and has a top 30 contract, even though he's clearly too young to play firstgrade. He has got to do 2 preseasons with Melbourne's top squad as a teenager. I don't know if they let him do everything, or just the non contact stuff, but he gets to train with the best players in the game.
In short, Melbourne wanted him so much they gave up a top 30 spot for him to play juniors, and we couldn't match that.
