An article listed the players on 18 month contracts who were drafted and he wasn’t one of the five.

Do the math. We have to delist or trade 4 to 6 players this October. Who are candidates for that. Get rid of cloggers.

He nominated but missed out, maybe add him to the VFL list next year. :wink:

This selection is pretty intriguing to me. Smartt, having been right under our noses all season would surely have been the player we had the best analysis and projection insights into.

I haven’t seen him play enough to form an opinion, but I reckon it might be going early to categorise his current output as the finished product.

Someone said he has been working part time as a teachers aide at a local school.

It has to be seen as a good story for the young lad. Glad the club used the pick on one of our VFL kids as well. Nyko or Foley would have. been happy with as well if selected.

He seemed genuinely extremely excited. Boys obviously like his energy. He has a bit of go in him which is good, more than Cahill did.

Smart: “Hey Harley, can you let Essendon know that you will only consider us if the recruit me on an 18month contract?’

Harley: “sure, but there is no way I’m going unless Clone_Hirdy gives his blessing”

He’s genuinely rapt to have been picked up. Seems quite emotional about it. It was tough for him to miss out in the regular draft, so this means a lot to him.

He’s been given a great opportunity and he’s hoping he makes the most of it.

The kid genuinely looks emotional about being given an opportunity. Really hope he can make a go of it.

Well he can’t be a downgrade on Gresham after what I’ve just seen in the first half at the Gabba. Prefer he gets a game over Menzie too.

Play Oskar.

Ease Greasham.

Called ‘want’

BRING HIM IN

He actually looks tougher close up, looked like another ned cahill baby faced softy from a distance, so that’s a relief.
