Developing mobile ruckman who displays a great appetite for the contest. Can take a strong contested pack mark and is equally as comfortable running down players and laying tackles. Was very impressive in South Australia’s victory over NSW/ACT in the 2008 NAB AFL U18 Championships and managed two senior games for West Adelaide (SANFL) late in the season. Jarrad didn’t attend the 2008 NAB AFL Draft Camp due to playing commitments with the Eagles in the SANFL reserves grand final. He comes from a basketball background and had played very little football until this year.

STATS
Kicks: 2, Handballs: 2, Disposals: 4, Marks: 2, Goals: 0 (Averages from U18 Championships)
sounds like a smokey

anyone got anything on his games for the eagles reserves? Tap ruckman or more in the bigmac ruck who can mark?
i couldnt even see his name on the SANFL reserves site :?
or his name in the stats for the GF

Is that a problem? :?
No just an observation.

However it seems many left footers only have a right leg to stop them from falling over :wink:

LOL @ what cahill wrote when asked about his inspiriations on the afl website


Nick Riewoldt is a bit of a softy but deals with all the hard nuts that are put on him. He doesn’t brawl. He also shows maturity, having taken on captaincy at a really young age.
