Kristian's a Jaksch of all trades

Swings like a pendulum between attack and defence and has Michael Hurley-like versatility

The always smiling Plowman not only blankets forwards but can also out-mark them, and could develop in to a burst midfielder.

Tough, courageous and a born leader. The Dees have a steal in Viney, who will play Round 1 next year.

NOT so long ago, Kristian Jaksch might have settled for giving only one or two efforts at a contest.

These days, the best available key-position prospect in this year's AFL draft is more likely to muster three or four strong cracks at the ball as part of a more desperate edge to his game.

The improvement was manifested in a somewhat unexpected move to send the gun goalkicker into defence for Oakleigh Chargers in the TAC Cup this season.

The 194cm Jaksch thrived so much in defence, after years in front of goals, that talent chiefs are now split on which end of the ground suits him better.

Up forward, he glides above packs and is a beautiful long kick for goal. In defence, his timing to spoil the ball and rebound is also a class above.

The Phantom Draft


 While Jaksch would prefer to start his AFL career forward, he is happy he has become a much more well-rounded and versatile player, in the mould of Bomber Michael Hurley.

"I admire the way he can play either end to a high level," Jaksch said.

"I like his aggression. He is a real competitor."
