Welcome to Collingwood Jonathan Marsh

He could be the absolute steal of the draft or he could turn out to be quite a poor player for the club who languishes in the reserves. It did seem surprising to many experts that he was picked so low in the draft considering most of them had him at around pick 20 to 35. He's got that x-factor and unpredictability about him. On his day he could potentially single-handedly win us a game if he's on song. I think it's fantastic that we've taken a risk on selecting Marsh. He could turn out to be an excellent player for the club and it looks like a good kick and he's got a strong set of hands. I think the reason why he was so low to start off with is due to his lack of endurance somewhat.

Anyway he's some footage of Jonathan Marsh earlier this year:

Second fastest 20m sprint in draft combine history! An absolute athlete who can play footy, according to SEN!!

Well done Hine!!

Kevin Sheehan said that surprised he lasted that long. Rated by some in top 20.

Hopefully he will be the steal of the draft.

He looks like a freak!!!

No one could tackle him in that package!

^Fingers crossed. He must be something special for Hine to use the extra pick. I wonder if there will be another player delisted or we will take 39 seniors and one less rookie?

Seen as a potential third tall forward at 191cm and with great pace, which is something we're looking for.

Endurance is supposedly a weakness. And I guess, with him going so late, we see how important this has become in the modern game.
