Not actually Brad Fisher
That game is one of the reasons I have Jagga as the clear #1 in this draft. You need to understand the context of that stat. The game was in horribly wet conditions. These games never produce big metres gained numbers. Most of the decisions he made with ball in hand were the correct ones as he needed to go backwards from the coalface so that his team could maintain control. There was also a possession where he gathered the ball on the goal line and hit his teammate with a 40m kick to give his team a shot on goal. That alone would've been -40m against him but was essential to his team winning. He was easily BOG and led his team to a hard fought narrow win through his poise and cleanliness while everyone on both teams were fumbling. Yes the stat line looks bad in isolation, but without him going backwards his team would not have won that day.
Who gives a ****? He knows no more than anyone else, in fact I’d say less given he is pretty inexperienced. Worrying about what Carlton need ‘now’ is moronic. That’s what trades are for. At this end of the draft they should pick the best player. That is what wise long term planning people do and it pays off.
Of course you can.
But your opinion might not be as valid as those who have watched dozens of full games over the past few years.
Love you stuff C4 so take this with the respect I deliver it…..
In my view if he becomes a bust he’s the best marking bust of all time.

Casboult one of the best contested clunkers of all time. Was he a bust? I wouldn't say so, but I certainly wouldn't have spent a top 5 pick on the Big Tofu.

I struggle to watch some of the Blues games let along U18s
cheers to those who did watch u18s games but opinions are like a**holes - everyone’s got one and most opinions are also full of crap and unluckily for you I haven’t been booted from here yet
Bounce the ball (start the draft) already

Interesting watching Jagga's start of the year vs his end of the year at Coates League.
Much more direct in the second half of the season and though he missed a lot more targets, he was probably more damaging.

Sam or Tom?Tom Mitchell is a brownlow medalist, multiple all australian to be fair, so not really the end of the world if it turned out like that..
Jagga currently is an inside ball winner that at times has been a high possession player with lowish meters gained. He has worked on being more dynamic and driving forward.
Butters is a meters gained player, running forward 5-10m and then kicking the ball. I feel like Draper is closer to Butters than Jagga at the moment.
This is from Rookie Me
"Impact per possession remains an area Smith is looking to enhance, though, making good on his wealth of possessions. He certainly made strides towards the back-end of the season."

Ben tested poorly but also reportedly in other testing is extremely powerful.
Jagga is fast. Has burst. Lacks some top speed. But has burst and quickness.

god I'm sick of this.
Who did it in 2023 when we literally set club and AFL records for goals from centre bounce with quarters like that one with 6 or 7 goals.straight from the bounce against gc. Like. Are memories that short or just selective?

Exactly. Cripps bursts from stoppage. Jagga can burst from stoppage. Bursting from stoppage isn’t our weakness it’s agility and speed at the contest. Throw in disposal as well.
Jagga helps in both areas.
