Jeremy Smith was a left-footed flanker / winger drafted from Sandy Bay Tasmania with Pick 95 of the 1989 National Draft, this was Carlton’s seventh pick overall. He was also delisted in 1991 but re-drafted in the 1992 Pre-Season Draft.

Despite a number of years on the list, Smith would debut in Round 8, 1993, a loss to Footscray, and would only play the solitary game of VFL / AFL football. Within Smith’s 7 possessions was a nice goal from the 50 metre line.
