TAC Stats:

2004:
Strengths: Wood is a compact back pocket who is very consistent. He has good pace and likes to carry the ball out of the backline before nailing a target with his excellent disposal by foot. His kicking is definitely a feature, great in both accuracy and depth.
Jordan is a good mark for his size, and usually an excellent decision-maker. He had an excellent season in the TAC Cup, finishing 2nd in the Morrish Medal.
Weaknesses: Might not have the scope for improvement or versatility of some other players. Back pockets tend to be overlooked come draft day.
Footydraft.com comment: I'm a fan of this kid, excellent user of the footy and a smart player. Might not turn into a star but could be a solid player in the future.
