The Kristian Jaksch Thread

Following on from my Mason Shaw thread I thought I should look at probably the next best key forward in the draft out of Oakleigh Chargers.

194cm and 85kg so a bit more work would be needed in the gym for Kristian.

He's tipped to go around pick 15-25 so in the chance that Ben Kennedy isn't available at pick 13 would Kristian be worth a look there, especially if we use picks 3 and 4 on say Toumpas and Wines?

Apparently is capable of playing both ends and has very good pace and agility.

Curious as to what people think of Jaksch at pick 13 especially in comparison to Shaw at 4?

    If he can take a mark, kick a goal and help us succeed then I dont care... I'm not interested in being his mate.

    He is 194cm and 85kg.

    Travis Cloke was 195cm and 85kg when he was drafted.

    Along with my above post, Franklin and Roughead were also under 90kg when they were drafted. So was Jack Riewoldt. Everyones favourite here - Jack Darling - was under 90kg too. James Frawley (a defender i know) was 81kg at the draft time and look at him now, he's a monster

    Unless you are fat or close to 200cm tall, being 90kg as an 18 year old is rare.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
