AFL: October small prospects ↗ · Website details checked 26 October 2026.
Sonny Smiler is a left-footed Northern Territory wing and forward prospect. The AFL’s October profile describes his ability to cover the ground, use his speed to separate from opponents and deliver the ball to teammates. It lists him at 177cm, with his national-combine sprint providing an additional measured reference for his acceleration.
His attacking appeal is strongest when his movement opens a useful angle for the next possession. We would look for his positioning and pressure to keep bringing him into the game when space is restricted. A repeatable supporting role would allow his more inventive forward moments to add to a steady contribution rather than carry it alone.
Scouting text, projected ranges and comparisons are SotaramAFL editorial assessments, rather than confirmed club decisions or predictions of career achievements.
The simulator currently places Sonny Smiler in the Top 60 group. Compare the role and scouting assessment with the players available at your club’s selection, then test an alternative in your own mock draft.

No published figure in this collection: Agility · 2km time trial · Standing vertical jump · Running vertical jump.
Rankings use only published results collected for the same test and event, with competition ranking for ties. The denominator is the number of known results, not all participants. Preliminary and unofficial figures are shown without ranks or historical comparisons. Reaching-hand, side-specific and counter-movement protocols stay separate.
Scouting bands are the site's existing editorial view; no numerical skill ratings have been inferred from prose. Historical marks use the AFL's records reference. The 2km event began in 2017; no 3km, beep-test or Yo-Yo conversion is used. Harry Sharp's 2020 mark is a historical reference across differing event conditions. Finlay Yeo's WA agility result may surpass the national benchmark without changing that benchmark's event scope.
