I reckon hes put on some size already. If you look at Jagga from last year to early this year to now he looks noticeable stronger.

Of the guys we are looking to draft at pick 3. Who has the best footy IQ?

Jagga. It is why I have him slightly ahead of the others.

 

[Bale Dup]

Fair enough.
Just for the record I don't think "no" is any better and I only liked your response coz I love gifs.
Anyway, after further thought, with a name like Jagga, who needs a nickname.

maybe thats why we like him more. understanding the big moments

Haha, can’t wake to trade in Harley Reid end of next season. What an acquisition that will be.

Jagga Reid Walsh Cripps Cerra Hewitt

Dream Team

all part of the master plan

To my eye, Jagga's kicking is very technically sound. Its not a god given weapon, its damage mainly comes from his ability to consistently make a good decision. He doesn't have it in him to use his kicking to create an opportunity, he just picks the right one when an option presents itself.

when he gets it everything slows down and opens up areas of the ground. he won't worry about the inside stuff because crippa Hewett will feed him it

 

[Wickzki]

No good inside info (have been told that if anyone claims it they're either truly ITK or are full of shit) but I would be absolutely floored if it's not Jagga or Draper at this point.

Both tick the most boxes for what we're looking for and I believe both are as close to round one ready as you would hope for.

I still prefer another player (Langford) but I don't believe he ticks the boxes we're looking for.

 

[ianh]

maybe some of his teammates aren't at his footy IQ level to pick up on what he's thinking/doing. Won't be the case at AFL level.

HAVE YOU WATCHED THE WAY OUR FORWARD LINE "FUNCTIONS"?

Question for the draft watches - what attributes and points of difference does Jagga bring to our team and specifically our midfield, that we are currently lacking?

Elite footy IQ is the big one. And evasiveness.

Blues taking Jagga Smith, Crows taking Langford. Draper sliding to the Saints at 8.

What a topsy turvy draft year this is.

Well well well, mostly shaking out exactly like I've seen it, but Twomey is still adamant that Adelaide will bite at Draper and Hotton will slide.

If North are only interested in FOS and Tauru, one has to wonder if we can coax Richmond into an almighty trade for pick 3? They take FOS, North blow a gasket and try to trade with Adelaide, Lalor is available at 3 - or what I assume will be pick 4 at that point - and we take Richmond's next two picks.

And if Allan is on the board at 12... could we coax GWS to give up their first two picks for that and our future picks? It'd be unusual, but I think the AFL would tick it off.

Smillie, Hotton, Hynes... still potentially gettable. Imagine.

While I don’t think this is at all going to happen I do want to point out that if North were to take Tarau then that does mean that we could trade down to Pick 6 from Richmond and still end up with the last to be picked out of Lalor, FOS, Draper, Smith and Langford. So if our list team did rank them pretty similar then they could accept a trade with Richmond for Pick 6 and whatever else the Tigers offer (more likely 18 and not 10 or 11). However I do believe they probably have a strong preference for one of those five and will be trying to get them.

Jagga would be the dream for me but Draper would also be absolutely unbelievable for us

Very, very excited
