Listening to Tyson Edwards this morning I'm pretty sure he wants his boys to be Crows players.

His 14 year is already 6 foot. If only he was ready to play next year.

Don't know anything about the Edwards boys apart from Jackson who looks a gun mid for us next year. Anyone know whether his other sons even play footy?
Seems Tyson has created a footy factory for us.

Apparently one of the younger brothers is going to be the best out of the three brothers. His current coach who also coached Brodie Smith said he was as talented as smith. Im pretty sure its luke edwards.

One of the younger brothers (Luke I think) played a couple U18 games for Glenelg towards the end of this year. Not sure if he is the 6ft tall one or not.

A Reece Homfray article, but nothing we don't know already. In short, we're in the box seat only because we have more draft picks than Hawthorn and they presume they won't want to go into a points deficit next year.

ADELAIDE is in the box seat to secure father/son prospect Ben Jarman if it wants him but neither the Crows or rival Hawthorn is yet to make a commitment to the teenager 48 hours from the nomination deadline. Jarman’s manager told The Advertiser he had asked both clubs which have the option of declaring their intention to select him as a father/son pick to give him space to finish his Year 12 exams in the past week. And while both clubs have been in contact since the football season finished and interviewed him at the draft combine, neither has said anything official ahead of Monday’s deadline to nominate him as a selection.

Ben’s father Darren played 121 games for Adelaide and 109 for Hawthorn meaning the youngster is eligible to join either club under the father/son rule.

It is ultimately the player’s decision which club to nominate - if any at all. “We will probably know if not today (Friday) then definitely by Monday ... and then we can have a more meaningful discussion,” Jarman’s manager Dimitris Parhas said. “With Ben in his last week of school we’ve kept it low key and I spoke to Adelaide and Hawthorn and asked them to respect that this is his last week of Year 12.” Parhas said he was “not sure” whether Adelaide or Hawthorn had made a decision on Jarman and said the small forward/midfielder had not made one either. “No he hasn’t, he will make a decision next week,” Parhas said.

Clubs can select a player under the father/son rule with a pick in the national draft in Sydney on November 25. But rival clubs can out-bid them using a points system which is attached to their draft selections. Adelaide enters the draft with Picks 13 (worth 1212 points), 53 (233 points), 67 (69 points) as well as 89, 107, 125 and 143 which aren’t worth anything. The Hawks’ aggressive trade period in which they netted Sydney’s Tom Mitchell and Gold Coast’s Jaeger O’Meara means they don’t enter the draft until Pick 88 and then have 90, 108, 126 and 144 which have no points value at all.

Opinion remains divided over where Jarman fits into the national draft but recruiters from two AFL clubs have him pencilled in at Pick 40 and beyond. The 175cm Rooster enhanced his prospects at the national draft combine earlier this month when he excelled in the skills testing. The Crows have never had a father/son draftee in the club’s history while Hawthorn took Josh Kennedy in 2006, Travis Tuck in 2005 and Steven Greene in 2000.

His 14 year is already 6ft and supposed to be a gun who is playing at higher levels.
 
I've only had to watch a few minutes of the u17s SANFL Futures Academy match played this year which features Jackson Edwards to see how much talent this kid has... He's like a taller, left footed version of his old man... so composed and skilful! Still a fair bit of a way to go but gee the signs are good!

Very non committal from Adelaide. Good to see we'll stick to our talent list but it could throw up some interesting scenarios. If someone bids on Jars and he is the second or third best player left on our talent list do we select him or roll the dice that the player(s) we really want will be there at our next selection?
