From BF
194cm 90kg Gippsland Power / Foster FC
Jordan Staley - probably a kpp at afl level, but playing ruck for Gippsland. Athletic, kicks goals, gets more ball around the ground than most ruckmen
From BF Chris25's Phantom Draft.
Jordan Staley (194cm forward - Gippsland)
'Really nice prospect is Staley. The problem is that he has been playing in the ruck for Gippsland, and with his height that isn't going to happen at AFL level. But he is already a very strong mark and a booming kick, and his time in the ruck has let him develop his running game. Just needs a season or two playing as a genuine full forward, and he could be a nice player'
Just saw some vision of him playing in the ruck, and he is a booming kick
Yay they took a tall KP/ruck

again from inside footy quoting adam dowie, gippsland power's coach........."an excellent contested mark and a thumping kick ...he can also pinch hit in the ruck if needed and is one who will blossom with full time coaching.."
.everybody still loves lenny....and we always will

I hope he grows, if not maybe a pinch hitter like Brennan use to be for the Lions as has long arms and a good jump. What impressed me the most though was his timing (granted it is only a highlights clip). Blake is only 189cm and has done ok in the ruck. This bloke will not be the starting ruckman but may give assistance to Ben. A similar role to the tall defender we picked up in the national draft.
