Does anyone know anything about him

The word is that it was a suprise he wasnt taken in the draft and we may have grabbed a bargain by placing him on the rookie list.


He seems to have a mature body and is tough in the clinches.Anyone know more about him and think he will play seniors this year.How has he gone in the praccie matches.

He has been been mentioned in the last 2 drafts, and was expected to be picked up in the first couple of rounds by the experts...Sheehan etc, after a sterling effort in the U18's.

Like most I was shocked that this guy was still available for Rookie selection. We have got a beauty in him....a real beauty....we just need that sort of luck, which is different to the luck we've enjoyed with Rookie Thornton, or later picks in the draft such as Fisher and Houlihan, because by all accounts Jackson was regarded as a good draft selection; ie had a reputation in the TAC.

He has performed very well in praccy games, and as you would have read on TC, he has been one of the kids TC feeders have wanted on the field to check him out...in case he's worthy of promotion in case of injury.

If you want more info on him, do a search on afl.com.au or whilst on that site, check the archives on the TAC Cup....he's mentioned a fair bit there. If you dig deeper and lookk at his performances in the home and away, he regularly features in the best players.

I would like more information on him from those who have met him, spoken with him, and watched him train. As a running player, at 188cm and 81 kg (could have grown since last Nov, and put on some weight in the form of muscle) he looks like a nice size to have in the midfield. He knows how to get the ball and along with Flint (188/82) has good disposal skills.

He should stay with us for a long time based on the information I've scanned, and from the one time I've seen him...and hopefully will play a big part in a GF, when...


THE EMPIRE WILL STRIKE BACK!!
