Did some clever things around goal last year for VC that really made me sit up and take notice. Hopefully he steps up and becomes a vital part of the on ball brigade this year as he's facing an up hill battle because of his height, But as Prestia has shown...It can be done.

Prestia and Blair are both built like angry wombats. They might be short, but they're both 80kg+ and chunky, which at least gives them a chance of competing physically at the top level. Smith at 69kg will be overlooked I reckon. Just not enough beef on him to make up for his height.
 
I think he'll get picked up for sure. Especially in a diluted draft. Callum Bartlett was a similar size if I remember right and he was taken 2nd round.

Listed as 175cm and 73kg in the U18 Champs record, so he's put on some size. Very draftable you would think.
