It's interesting to note that Smith's birthdate is 28/01/2006, he's been 18 almost all of the year, finished school in 2023 and was very nearly eligible for last year's draft.  He's had a full year to concentrate on honing his footy.

Compare with Levi Ashcroft, 18/12/2006, he's still 17, he qualified for this year's draft by less than 2 weeks.

Yeah what ifs,buts and could have beens! Don't cut the mustard!

Smith and his family attended the club last week and met with club officials and past players, this was more than just due diligence IMO and from what I've heard is beyond the interaction we've had with other potential draftees. I understand that it's increasingly unlikely that he'll be there at Pick 5 (6), but he is still the number one priority if he's available.

Probably all depends on if North take Tauru and then Crows take Draper.

As mentioned in the Phantom Draft thread, there could be some games being played by our draft team. A lot of mention of our interest in Tauru for pick 5 or 9. This might be to spook North into just keeping pick 2 to pick Tauru.

Would be a terrific ploy on our part to make one of Jagga or Draper available.

Crossing fingers and toes this is the play and we end up with one of those two jets.

Very fair point and in all likelihood, that's where all this hangs in the balance.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
