really big fan of this kid
will be definitely keeping a close eye on him this season, was tremendous last year. Stood up and took charge of the Gippy forward line for most of the season when Butch was either injured or had Vic Country commitments.
will certainly come under heavy consideration for most clubs in november if he can back it up again this season.

Although he didn't kick goals he did some freaky goal assist work. Playing him on the wing for the bulk of them game but still did his best work inside 50.
Can anyone who is more in the know than me give any predictions as to where he will most likely be going in the draft? Although I've only seen the one highlights video on youtube, the guy seems quick and very clean below his knees, especially given the conditions that day. Has a physical side to his game too

Article thanks to Paul Daffey and courtesy of www.afl.com.au
IT IS no coincidence that Victoria Country won the division-one title at the recent NAB AFL National Under-18 Championships given the squad’s forward strength. The players who rotated through the Vic Country attack had a range of personalities but all had the ability to put the ball through the big sticks.
The three main forwards were leading forwards: Lucas Cook, Tom Lynch and Josh Walker. The other forward to stand out, Jed Lamb, was the wild card.
The first thing you noticed about Lamb was his green boots, which presented a striking contrast with his navy blue and white uniform. Then there was his brashness. He played with a grin. You could imagine him smiling in the teeth of a gale.
On the football side, Lamb was a small forward with a dynamite left foot. He also showed himself to be a natural goalkicker. It was like watching Kyle Reimers with lashings of talent.
During an interview after the match against Queensland, Lamb was open and likeable. His grin was cocked. He spoke with his right hand tucked inside the waistband of his shorts. When asked about his green boots, he thought the question was silly.
“They’re yellow, mate," Lamb replied.
Lamb grew up in Yarram in the South Gippsland region, the seventh of eight children. His father died when he was young. His mother worked in pubs before taking up her current job of working in an aged care home. Lamb frowned when asked whether his mother had done it tough. She was just his mother!
When asked if he had a second sport, Lamb plumped for the unusual choice of squash. In footy, he began playing with the Yarram senior team at 15. The next year he played two TAC Cup games with Gippsland Power but mostly he played with Yarram.
Every night after training at Yarram, he took 100 shots at goal. The most impressive part of this regime is that he was able to organise several 13-year-olds to stand behind the goals and fetch the footy after each shot. Lamb and a handful of Yarram teenagers have worked hard to attain Lamb’s accuracy.
This year Lamb played almost entirely with Gippsland Power before joining the Vic Country squad for the under-18 carnival. He was a standout in the first game, against Vic Metro, in which he kicked four goals and proved the perfect foil for Cook.
In subsequent games he had quiet patches up forward only to shine when given a shot on the wing. During the final quarter of the final game, against South Australia, he was played one-out in the goalsquare. AFL scouts would have slotted him as a forward with good hands and feet who could move into the midfield.

While he looks a very decent prospect, I question Carlton's need for him. It seems to me you guys have a lot of players of his type.

He's no small forward and for me thats a big plus. If we ever wan't to move LeCras up the ground having someone like Lamb on our list would be a big plus, his defensive pressure is exceptional certainly superior to LeCras.
Im hoping he falls to the second round and we can snag him with pick 27 if we end up with it.
Koby Stevens was his captain in the TAC cup in 2009 as well. Certainly another positive.

Jed Lamb is an interesting proposition. Has class and some tricks but I wonder where he might fit into an AFL line-up. He can take a good mark, but lacks the height of a conventional AFL key forward. I like him a lot, but suspect he'll be selected after the first 30 as not too many players like him seem to have meaningful impact at AFL level.
I too like his yellow boots!
