Levi Greenwood AFL Draft Discussion

[PAFC]

Port Magpies teammate of Brad Ebert, who has not got the same attention but has been putting in solid performances throughout the year. Outperformed Ebert for South Australia in the u18 championships yet somehow missed out on AA selection. If both SA teams pass on him, he could be a good second round pickup. However, I think the Crows would be fairly keen on him, especially seeing as Mattner is now leaving - he looms as the likely replacement and could be fastracked next year if Torney retires/is delisted.

His Profile:
Name: Levi Greenwood
Height: 181
Weight: 91
State: South Australia
Club(s): Port Magpies/North Whyalla

AFL Positions:
Might spend his time playing in the back half and also the midfield. He can already do a lot of things, and as he hasn't been playing football for a long time there will be other positions that he will learn too. He plays bigger than his listed height, so a team might think about making him into a forward, he is good at ground level and can outmark players who are a bit taller than he is too.

Perfect Fit For:
The Kangaroos traditionally play the game the same way that Greenwood does. Archer is at the end, and players like Simpson will also need to be replaced in the coming years.

AFLinsider.net prediction:
The Crows could use their second round pick to take him. They lose Ricciuto, while Edwards and Goodwin are at the latter stages of their careers, Greenwood would be a good addition.

AFL Fantasy Outlook:
Levi's genes must be good, he is a strong player with a big leap and solid fundamental skills. That should translate into a good amount of fantasy points when he gets his chance next year.
