South Adelaide<\/a>Small Forward<\/span><\/div>Jack Delean<\/h4>Height: <\/span>181cm<\/p>Weight: <\/span>77kg<\/p>DOB: <\/span>15-04-2005<\/p><\/div><\/div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\nFor all the disappointment of going down at home, South Australia’s much improved goalkicking accuracy was a positive. Claiming four of the Croweaters’ 11 goals was Delean, an exciting small forward out of South Adelaide. The National Academy member is capable of the miraculous, springing high for marks and kicking goals from all angles. He did the latter with particular aplomb on Sunday and his fourth major a highlight-reel snap he has become renowned for. He firms as a low-possession, high impact type of forward likely to pitch himself in the top 30 frame. His class is undeniable.<\/p>\n

The Tasmanian, another National Academy member, was arguably best afield on Sunday and again showcased his ability to rack up possessions, notching a game-high 36 disposals to go with seven clearances and two goals. His inside game has always been a strength, but Sanders is also expanding on his outside game and has begun to hit the scoreboard. The areas he has actively improved on, as well as his pure consistency, will likely have him rising sharply within the top 15 come next month’s rankings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bustling key forward set the tone for his side’s victory, crashing packs and impacting the scoreboard in an ominous first half, en route to 17 disposals, eight marks, and 3.5. He was relatively well contained by Will McCabe<\/a> after half time, but did more than enough beforehand to suggest his blend of power, athleticism, and physicality make him the top tall forward in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
