Player Watch #16 Josh Smillie

[Turka]

Smillie will be too good for VFL and pointless having him play VFL

He needs to be played AFL and learn exactly what it takes and whats expected
rated #1 most of 2024 and wanted to be selected at #1 so he is a mentally strong kid that will adapt quickly

2025 is a nothing year and just get games into the kids that have the talent

Correct me if I’m wrong - and freak Dusty aside - I can’t recall any first pre-season rookie having the impact this kid is having…He’s 195…
To hold your arms up in a tackle and get the hands off or spin around within it, that’s impressive…Would love to see it against Cripps, Round 1…
