VFL Round 7: Williamstown vs Essendon, Point Gellibrand Oval, Saturday 11/05, 3:05 PM

[faible]

His performance against the Bulldogs reserves a few weeks ago stood out - kicked goals of both wings and just looked dangerous.

Definitely passes the eye test for potential as a small forward.

Fox Sports listed Oskar Smartt in a list of potential MSD picks last week, I havent watched any of our VFL team but his stats sheet doesnt really scream "pick me"

Likely top 5 at this stage unfortunately. Would love him.

Thats annoying, we need more small forwards.
Is he a tackling/high pressure type? Wonder if we could do what hawks did with newcombe and get him to nominate a contract length that put others off?

I didn't know that was a thing. Surely if he's that good other clubs wouldn't baulk at that anyway?

I think that's only available to former AFL listed players now.

Not a super high pressure player. More a bloke with a few tricks and a decent footy brain.
