2013 Rookie Draft Pick #47 - Jacob Ballard

[Proud SJW]

Screw you Bender, I was just about to.
We're a grand final side.

Shit.
We're a grand final side. Kid said that. He's happy to be drafted, but by a Grand Final Side.

It's still a little unreal.

Yeah I got a little thrill out of reading that too.

We might not have tasted the ultimate success yet but it's a great feeling to be a respected club these days. We've come a long way since our abortion of an entry into the league and the fact we've had to earn everything the hard way makes it so much sweeter.

I still feel a little like crying when I hear "grand final side". Was soooo flat for about 2 weeks afterwards

Thought I bump this thread.. Ballard is raking up the numbers for Peel of late. A hard in-and-under type. I know he's along way off from breaking through but it's worth a look as his consistency is hard to ignore.

 

[Tutty]

He shows some strong numbers that's for sure, hoping he can sneak in for a game or two this year

This guy must be upgraded to the senior list based on his numbers this season, surely?
