Past Jackson Thurlow - delisted 2020

Jackson Thurlow

Player Profile
The Sydney Swans traded Jackson Thurlow from the Geelong Cats ahead of season 2019 and the Tasmanian has since shown promising signs, impressing with his intercept-marking and one-on-one defending. The fleet-footed backman played eight of the first 10 AFL games of the 2019 season but added just one more appearance over the remainder of the campaign, so he’s hungry to cement a spot in Sydney’s best team in 2020. The 2019 retirement of champion defenders Jarrad McVeigh, Heath Grundy and Nick Smith has freed up room in the backline as names like Thurlow, Colin O’Riordan and Ryley Stoddart push for more games at the top level. Draft history: 2012 AFL National Draft selection (Geelong), No. 16 overall.

Really think he is incredibly stiff and that we may have given away a very good player who finally found his mojo.

Totally agree. The guy has attributes!! And he's a good age, you don't want to be unbalanced with too many youngsters. Or are we making way for a guy who's had a million head knocks! Hope he gets another chance somewhere and brains us.

Now is the time for The King! to start asking his relos the hard questions.
