Anyone that hasn’t looked at Jagga Smiths Champs highlights, I urge you to take 4 minutes out of your day and watch the whole video for some decent viewing.

Kid reminds me of Nick Daicos. Demands the football, is evasive and continually runs to create for his team mates.

This kid will be the next big thing and we should definitely consider him.

**** he’s good

 

[CrippaTheGoat9]

Would he mind not holding on to 9? Some other guy for us has that at the moment…

He’ll look good in the number 7

FOS

We have enough players who bomb it into F50 without looking, and he's a poor kick as it is.
Funny how people see highlights videos differently - I think I've seen FOS hit a target once in 3 videos, whereas I see Draper and Smith both hitting passes at will whilst either running full-tilt or under heavy pressure, and rarely missing.
Maybe I've missed something but the FOS "highlights" videos I've seen are not "highlights" at all. I just don't see it.

If you think Draper has better disposal than FOS then you’re beyond help.

Yeah he is. Just runs hard and creates. Uses it really well and just demands the ball. He’s my guy

Love how people see different things from the same footage, I watched it and what sticks in my mind is him taking a grab on the wing then hitting an absolute 45m tracer right on the money into the middle to open up the play
He sprayed a couple shots on goal but looked to me to have penetration & accuracy with his kicking

Not sure I deserve that clip over the ear.
I'm open to any of these kids, but can you please direct me to a video where FOS hits targets going forward/inside 50? Around the ground even?
I want to get onboard but I just don't see it.

Get on board the Jagga train, he’s better than both of those

Also just so cool and calm and evasive around the ball, really reminds me of Daicos

They had Draper ranked at 10, and with his kicking/decision making being the main criticism makes me somewhat concerned if we take him. Would be hoping we'd be looking at more skilled players at this point.

Harvey Langford might be the one elite ball user

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Definitely the type we need to spice up our midfield imo

 

[GT619]

I see FOS as Heeney lite

If you consider his under 16 and 17 seasons, he'd be clear number 1

whats slowed him down this year

 

[Christou2Kouta]

To change tact... Who are we wanting at our 2nd pick if we can avoid a Ben bid rendering it useless? I imagine we'll look to boost that up to a pick around 30 rather than 38.

Some quality KPD options and flankers in that range.

Not a defender but I’m on board the Gerreyn train. Would be a nice complement to TDK.

I’d be surprised if Lemmey was able to take on any ruck duties to provide relief which I think is an important role for a tall key forward. They could train him up to take over Young’s role in defence instead.

O’Sullivan has a better Leg and Mark , finds space beautifully too.
Draper really doesn’t have a better leg.
Reckon we’ll end up with one of , O’Sullivan, Smith, Lalor or Draper in that order.

Apologies. There’s plenty of footage out there. Draper not bad with short passes but has no left foot and is not a classy ball user. FOS I wouldn’t classify as elite foot skills but damaging. Generally puts to advantage with penetration. Biggest knock on FOS is he is low production and can be caught htb a bit often.

 

[NewDarkNavyBlues]

Jagga hands down in the safest pick. If Tigers pass on him twice or the Roos do then he’s a no brainer. Daicos / butters.

 

[SurreyBlue]

If the Wanganeen clone is available at our pick and we don’t take him, I’ll be depressed.

 

[Kernafides]

Jagga is light from what I've seen... won't play next year

 

[NewDarkNavyBlues]

Reid is reminiscent of Andrew McGrath to me. Think he'll be a decent and fairly consistent player, but not one that makes a significant difference to the fortunes of whichever club takes him.

If we'd only been able to get as high as Pick 9 or 10, I'd have been OK with us taking him given his disposal skills, but up at 3 we need to be targetting someone who changes the dynamic of our midfield.

I couldn’t pick a worse comparison lol. McGrath was an athletic track star with questionable disposal lol. Reid is the exact opposite.

Obviously a great talent. But would he make it to #3 is the question.

 

[GT619]

Tiges will take Lalor lock that in and they’ll try to trade for pick 2 to take FOS.

Quick!!! , looks the goods

100% he does play

 

[Muji]

Agree, if Ollie Hollands played first year as a 70 something kilo twig Jagga will easily get a gig for us. I suspect the Tigers will take FOS and Lalor 1-2 once they trade with the Kangas.

I’m high on Smith as next in line followed by Draper. Ideally i’d go FOS, who seems more rounded than all the top mids.
