People keep calling him a "small bloke" but he's 181cm or just a smidge under 6ft in the old

That is small

Brownlow speech where he thanks himself for the inspiration he's been is what I'm hanging out for.

Joe Berry is the Joest Berry at Port since Joe Berry was a Joe Berry.

His highlights on the club's YouTube is actually Robbie like. A slower version of Gray but still lots of Robbie traits.

Smokin' Joe is definitely faster than Gray at top speed.

I reckon this is almost the safest pick at the draft after the top 6. Reckon worst case scenario is he becomes Farrell which is still quite good. Similar game style at u18 level. Best case scenario is he becomes Bayley Fritsch and kicks bags and reliably so. The positive thing about Berry is, like Fritsch, he maximises his opportunities. Could have games with 10 disposals but 4 goals regularly. I'm confident he gets there. The question that still remains for me if small forward was our biggest need going into the draft given the way we play.

Totally different story if we change the way we play, but who are we kidding? We still got Ken and he hasn't changed a thing in 12 years.

Fritsch is a good comparison, though Joe might range further.

I'm looking forward to watching this collection of small forwards.

There's a lot of Bayley Fritsch that I saw in Berry. Maybe his ceiling his higher but if he gets the output Fritsch does then that's a win. The turn of speed, the accuracy, craft and ability to have low disposal but high impact games are similar traits between the two.

Contrary to most others, I don't see Berry making it in midfield even as a chop out. But I think he's got more than enough forward nous to become an important cog.

Unless our gameplan next year magically changes under Ken, I look forward to the collection of smalls from 2026.
