Brad Smith

[Plugga]

I rate Brad very highly, would slot into Freo's side perfectly at FF, is only 25 y/o & would give time for young Murphy to develop & bulk up.

Comments?

Subi deliver the ball well to smith. You only have to look at the grand final to see how smith kopes when the ball isn't delivered well (not good). His second effort aren't great either and hes not that strong. Would be better going for someone like Deleminico who is young and has time to develop. Or even Priddis from subi who has been good this year.

Smith would be very handy. Particularly if we lose Simmo.
Wouldn't get him for anything lower than pick 30 though.

BTW - may I extend the warm hand of welcome to BF to plugga, bb gun and scham. Good to have some new freo posters on board!

I've been thinking for a while that Smith would look very smart in blue and gold.

Should of taken him last year when he had a good year as well. Might not be around this time. Has good hands and is a lovely kick. Reminds me a bit of Jason Heatley in that despite kicking a lot of WAFL goals he wasnt highly regarded for AFL, but was then able to get a couple good years at StK (70/80 goals one year).
Main problem is Subi use the ball alot better than Freo. If Freo work on disposal we would be mad if we didnt pick him up.

I'm with you on this one, I would be very happy if Freo pick up Delemenico. Watching him play all is junior years I have seen something that has really excited me. Is one of the younger aged players in the draft this year and would be worth a punt with a late pick.

Is this the guy that played one or two games at collingwood after being on richmonds list?

 

[Plugga]

no

I would just like to say that Daniel Schell looked a million dollars kicking 5 goals in the SANFL second semi on Sunday.

Looked a lot better than Smith did in the GF as our rookie Micheal Warren did a good job on him until 1/2 time. He was then moved.

A late maturing crab.

He used to look a million dollars at SF ocasionally.

Still a crab

Actually he is... He wore number 15 for collingwood after being traded from Richmond. Dud Ruckman, but havnt followed the WAFL. So gluck, as long as he doesnt come back to collingwood.

Completely different player.

Hope it's Brad Smith from Subiaco in the WAFL you mean, had a brilliant year kicking 98 goals in regular season to win award.

Freak, should be drafted as a mature age recruit in my opinion.

Brad Smith would work for the dockers i think. Troy Simmonds and Justin Longmuir are no FF's. This guy takes a good mark on the lead, and can take a great contested mark. And his kicking for goal is quite good too. He would definetly be worth the punt. Freo needs a consistent forward.
