There were a lot of doubts if Jarrad Grant was ever going to make it as an AFL player at the start of the 2010 season, but since being given the opportunity early in the season he has taken it with both hands. Grant has cemented his spot in the Bulldogs 22 and is growing in confidence.
What makes Grant such an exciting player is that he has so many strings to his bow: great height, very cleans hands, footy brains and lightning quick pace. Admittedly, his set shot goal kicking is suspect at times. After his first eight games of 2010, Grant averaged a healthy average of 72 Dream Team and 70 Supercoach.
Grant will continue to play a half forward role for the Bulldogs, which means he will rack up a heap of marks, a few goal assists and a goal a match. He is only going to get better as a player, and has the potential for an average of 80-100 in the next few seasons.
