<h2>Josh Jenkins Profile</h2>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Name:</strong> Josh Jenkins.</p>
<p><strong>D.O.B:</strong> 08/02/1989.</p>
<p><strong>Height:</strong> 6’7” (200cm)</p>
<p><strong>Sport: </strong>AFL.</p>
<p><strong>Position:</strong> Key Forward/Ruckman.</p>
<p><strong>Clubs: </strong>Essendon, Adelaide Crows, Geelong.</p>
<p><strong>Appearances:</strong> 149.</p>
<p><strong>Goals:</strong> 296.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Born in the AFL heartland of Victoria and growing to 6’7” you could say Josh Jenkins was always destined to become a successful Aussie Rules forward.</p>
<p>Well, then you might be surprised to find out, he very nearly turned pro in a different sport. As a junior JJ predominantly played basketball and had a development contract with the now defunct Townsville Crocs in the NBL.</p>
<p>He then switched to AFL and was quickly drafted by Essendon in the 2010 rookie draft.</p>
<p>After failing to make a senior appearance for the Bombers in his first year at the club he sought a trade to the Adelaide Crows and the rest they say is history.</p>
<p>Start as you mean to go on, JJ kicked a goal with the very first kick of his debut for the Crows against Geelong in round 7, 2012.</p>
<p>Some of Josh’s achievements at Adelaide include: kicking eight goals in a single match, kicking 62 goals in a season, being named in the All-Australian squad, and playing in the 2017 AFL grand final.</p>
<p>At the conclusion of the 2019 season he moved to Geelong and ultimately retired from the AFL altogether in 2021.</p>
<p>These days JJ is a respected sports media personality and a frequent Sportsbet contributor. His sporting knowledge extends far beyond just AFL, and you can follow him on the Feed for betting tips covering a multitude of sports!</p>
