Looks like we have gone the Selwood route of recruiting the youngest brother in the hope he is the best of the lot. Jack has three older brothers, two of whom played VFL.

What was his injury? Did it keep him out a long time?
Collarbone break, freak accident. Kept him out for champs and after Oakleigh got knocked out in an upset he didn't get much of a chance to return. Similar story to Noah Long. If we've done our homework I back him in, left him run around Box Hill and prove himself.

He’s going to have a fun time darting around the 190cm giants in the midfield over preseason (until they catch him and smash him).

Seems a decent punt for a late pick.

From those highlights looks a natural footballer. Very smooth mover as others have already pointed out.

Question will be that at his height you need to have some elite attributes to make it these days (speed, endurance, skill, etc).

Worth a punt though, give him a couple of years at Box Hill and see how he goes.

Great selection - but did we pay too much !!!!


Guess time will tell
We got him with a pick we already had right?

I love the club going after talented players injured for a lot of the year. If they have the hunger and drive to keep at it they can really improve in a professional system.
