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?

Edit: Spelling

    Problems with his character are there?

    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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
