I was with you on that selection. Either were great selections on pre draft showings. I thought Smith had better disposal and a bit more X-factor at the time.Completely different types, on and off field
Interesting that at the time Smith was portrayed as the manic professional. Weighing food etc with strict diet, absolutely driven. Not sure the Bulldogs “culture” and a coach refusing to play him inside mid helped much. FWIW, I am a little concerned for Ryley Sanders given his handling through the year. Proved he could “rack them up”, while he clearly has some “learnings”, he would be a little “miffed” and being overlooked for role players while getting big numbers in the VFL.
