The Jagga Smith Thread

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.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
