2007 AFL Draft Prospect: Jack Grimes
Name: Jack Grimes
Height: 187
Weight: 76
State: Victoria Metro
Club(s): Northern/Hurstbridge
AFL Positions:
He is a midfield leader, making smart decisions and doing what his team needs. He should spend a lot of time in the centre square. But if his AFL team needs him to play as a defender or forward he would be able to contribute there too.
Perfect Fit For:
The Crows are starting to lose some of their bigger bodies in the middle to retirement. Grimes would bring size, leadership and intensity.
AFLinsider.net prediction:
He might still be around when Richmond make their priority selection. Assuming they went big with their earlier pick, Grimes might be taken with Richmond's second pick in the draft.
AFL Fantasy Outlook:
He will be a player that fantasy coaches think about signing in 2008. Plenty of possessions and tackles, some occasional goals, his fantasy points could be good in 2008. He is a bit taller than some midfielders, and can also get into space in the middle, so his marks totals could add up too. Grimes should play plenty of AFL games next season, no matter who drafts him.
