Am stoked about this.

Was thinking we may have a look at Smith for pick 20 due to the pace and penetration that he has to offer, but to get him at 36 is one of the steals of the draft.

Naitinui, Shuey, Swift and Smith - massive amount of talent there to go into the centre after topping up on talls last year.

The good work by the recruitment team today will set us up very nicely for the future. :thumbsu:

I was thinking the same Brazen but you could really include Kennedy in there as well so two out of six. plus he said topping up on talls. let him off with this one haha

Whats the chances of this kid playing AFL footy next season?
I havent seen much of him at all but people who know their stuff think he will wont get much action next year. Slight issue with OP last year so we'd be better off taking it very slow given our past history with that.

I have a good feeling about this kid is all, I think he'll just love the open spaces at Subi. :thumbsu:

I have seen some footage of him and one things clear. He loves kicking it long to a contest. He really needs to improve his placement if he wants to play afl next year because simply putting it over the top of someone won't work unless your kicking it to Josh Kennedy.
